Earlier quoted context omitted.
It is very illegal per CFAA, there is already precedent for this. Here is one such case that is popular in case law curriculum. [0] https://casetext.com/case/united-states-v-auernheimer-3
Which part of Auernheimer do you think applies here, setting aside the fact it was overturned on appeal for improper venue?
Think of it like an ATM that suddenly thinks your balance is 5 quadrillion dollars, and you empty it because if their system says you have it, then it's your prerogative to appropriate those funds, according to your assertion. Unfortunately, this is not how the courts have decided this should be handled. In US v Auernheimer the question is whether publicly accessible and sequential (read: guessable) routes being accessed by those they're not intended for is criminal. The improper venue appeal has nothing to do with the essence and spirit of this segment of case law, it means that the suit was brought forward improperly. That act itself was deemed criminal, otherwise Auernheimer would have remained safely in Arkansas rather than absconding to the then-stateless Republic of Abkhazia.
Saying all of this, it is important to me that I communicate to you Ethbr0, that I'm responding objectively and not at all trying to tell you that I feel one way or the other, or that I am judging you as criminal. If that's how this was taken, I wholeheartedly apologize. You are free to do what you want, and you're granted the right to speak freely publicly. To me it doesn't seem like a good idea to say what you said, and I would not act similarly, but I will not judge you for doing what you feel is right.
