- Computer Fraud and Abuse Act
of 1986
- The Computer Fraud and Abuse Act of 1986 focuses primarily on protecting "government-interest" computers,
including: federal, state, county and municipal systems; financial and medical
institutions; and computers used by contractors supplying such institutions.
Specifically, the law prohibits the use of "a program, information, code
or command" with intent to damage, cause damage to, or deny access to a computer
system or network. In addition, the Act specifically prohibits even unintentional
damage if the perpetrator demonstrates reckless disregard of the risks of
causing such damage.

- Electronic Communications Privacy Act of 1986
- The Electronic Communications Privacy Act of 1986, generally known as the
ECPA, assigns fines and prison sentences for anyone convicted of unauthorized
interception and disclosure of electronic communications such as phone calls
through landlines or mobile systems and e-mail. In addition, the ECPA specifically
prohibits making use of an unlawfully overheard electronic communication
if the interceptor knows that the message was unlawfully obtained. On the
other hand, providers of electronic messaging systems, including employers,
are permitted to intercept messages on their own systems in the course of
their normal operations; naturally, they are authorized to transmit messages
to other communications providers as part of the normal course of transmission
to the ultimate recipient. The ECPA also prohibits access to stored messages,
not just those in transit.

communications business -- to let any communications business compete in
any market against any other.
