Who is to indict here? And what are the appropriate charges? These are the two initial and basic questions that may still take months to answer until the facts of this case are clarified. The facts are who, if any, provided the information to Wikileaks; whether that person was a government employee; or whether the information was illegally obtained by hacking into the government's computers. If the real facts are not obtained, the federal government cannot prosecute anyone. Thus, for the time being, this case will stay at the investigation stage. This article presents an example of how the United States Espionage Act was applied to a "leaking? case that involved a government employee who provided confidential information and photographs to a British magazine in 1985. <br><br><a href="http://www.ibls.com/internet_law_news_portal_view.aspx?s=latestnews&id=2391" target="_blank"><span style='color:#A35A1C'>Read more...</span></a>.<br><br></span><b><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#8A8471'>Is the So-Called Espionage Act Applicable to the Wikileaks Case?

After an interest and extensive analysis, the court held that 18 U.S.C. ? 793(d) and (e) were "not unconstitutionally vague or overbroad because the statute was violated if the defendant willfully transmitted the photographs related to the national defense to someone who was known by defendant not to be entitled to receive it, and the statute clearly set out who was entitled to receive such information.? Regarding the term ?related to national defense,? the court held that if the transmitted item is ?information? that could be used to injure the U.S., then it could be considered an item related to national defense. <br><br><a href="http://www.ibls.com/internet_law_news_portal_view.aspx?s=latestnews&id=2392" target="_blank"><span style='color:#A35A1C'>Read more...</span></a>.<o:p></o:p></span></p><div class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center'><span style='font-size:6.5pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><hr size=3 width="100%" align=center></span></div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><span style='font-size:6.5pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><br></span><a name=articles></a><b><span style='font-family:"Georgia","serif";color:#394452'>Featured IBLS Articles</span></b><span style='font-size:6.5pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><br><br></span><b><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#8A8471'>Federal Anti-hacking Law Does Not Prohibit Verbal Disclosure Of Computer Security Flaws </span></b><span style='font-size:6.5pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><br>The U.S. District Court in Massachusetts recognized the right of several MIT student hackers to publicly expose flaws in the ticketing methods of the Boston mass transit system, removing a prior 10-day injunction.
