Researchers could face legal risks for Tor network snooping

[H D Moore]

I would love to see this case go to court and set a precedent, although I 
hope its the University that is targeted and not the actual researchers.

The CNET article is just FUD though -- yes, the law is fuzzy in this area, 
but I highly doubt that any federal prosecutor is going to pick this up 
unless a specific indivual or company claims damages.
