26. Read the text. Computer crime
Computers can be used to commit all kinds of crimes. It is suggested that one could commit murder by computer if one hacked into an air-traffic controller's computer system and caused aeroplanes to crash, with the intent1 to kill the passengers. Not surprisingly crimes that specifically relate to computers are relatively recent creations of statute.
Some specific computer crimes are set out in the Computer Misuse Act 1990. It is designed to protect information kept on computers. There are three particular reasons why such information needs protection by the criminal law. Firstly it is said to be very hard to safeguard information stored on a computer, particularly as often the information is intended to be accessed by a number of authorized people. By contrast information on paper can be kept in a safe or other secure2 place. Secondly the ease of destroying or corrupting data on a computer means it deserves3 special protection, particularly as it is not always possible for the owner of the computer to realize that the data have been looked at. Thirdly the highly confidential4 nature of the kind of information kept on computers (often concerning many members of the public) is such that it needs particular protection.
The act prohibits5 «hacking», i.e., gaining6 unauthorized access to computer material. The offence is committed if a defendant is entering the computer just to see what he can find. The Act also contains a more serious offence of doing this with the intent to commit another offence. The most common example is likely to be a deception (обман) offence or theft. A defendant who obtained data which he intended to use in the future to commit an offence of obtaining property by deception will still be guilty of the more serious offence.
There is also an offence of modifying computer material in an unauthorized way. This section is clearly aimed at people who alter7 computer data with intent to corrupt a program. The intent does not need to be directed towards any particular computer or data. Modification is defined as including removal of any program or data on a computer and includes adding to the contents or erasing8 them. It also includes temporary9 modification. It would appear to cover sending someone a disc with a virus on it that was intended to damage the working of the computer.
It is possible to be guilty of criminal damage of computers if there has been a physical change to some components of the computer.
