From what I understand in individual "hacking" cases just circumventing the security and accessing data without copying/selling it would be enough to get someone in trouble.

It is at least nice to fantasize how large companies would be held to such "standards" as well.

In a civil cases I also wonder if banks, governments or other large institution would be able to file lawsuits as well, claiming perhaps that breaches that have occurred recently occurred because their clients/workers had been unknowingly running one of the this Komodia software installed by Lenovo.




I wonder if the DMCA anti-circumvention provisions could be used?
