[funsec] Holy Crap: Using a Command Prompt is 'Suspicious Behavior'

[Paul M. Moriarty]

OK, the alleged crime is "Obtaining computer services by Fraud or  
Misrepresentation".  And it's pretty well spelled out to me in the  
Basis of Probable Cause that there, is fact, probable cause.

I'm not saying I personally agree with the law or the actions taken by  
the Boston College Police Dept.

I am saying the that the EFF is using a lot of smoke mirrors to try  
and play on the emotions of F/OSS and privacy proponents that some  
huge egregious miscarriage of justice is taking place.  I call bullshit.
