That of course is correct. Unfortunately(?), for us we'd much rather run
networks and not sit in courts. National Computer Crime Squad (NC-17) as
every FBI division does not really have enough experience in dealing with
that but that particular person from there ( Byron Thompson ) had proven
that he can get stuff done. Basically, he will understand implications if
you try to explain them to him.
