      ab: The article discusses the legal concept of vagueness in relation to private nondelegation and the U.S. Computer Fraud and Abuse Act of 1986 (CFAA) which was reportedly established as a means of combating computer hacking. The CFAA's definition of a "protected computer" is mentioned, along with misdemeanors, felonies, and the damages associated with violations of the CFAA. A rule of lenity is examined, as well as criminal liability and a void-for-vagueness legal doctrine.
