    Just read the comment I literally made before you made that reply. It explains it pretty precisely.

      It comes across as someone who genuinely believes that American legal system is either technocratic, or otherwise operating on an alternative set or principles that aren’t currently present.

      And in this aspirational version of the American legal system, the CFAA wouldn’t exist, and this gray hat whistleblower would be afforded some legal protections for documenting the gross negligence of that service provider.

      But if we’re stuck operating in reality as it currently exists, he’d be SOL and there’d be no technocratic mechanisms to save him, except for prosecutorial discretion.
