Hello security researchers!! Here the govt is arguing that SHARING malware w/someone in the US may constitute wiretapping.pic.twitter.com/fOzqHYbmqs

Interjection:
Yes, the government (more specifically, non-specialist prosecutors from Wisconsin) is actually malware-splaining to a guy named @MalwareTech.
.@MalwareTechBlog, a second time: Please show me the 10 computers damaged under CFAA.
USG (after having said "no" once): Let me redefine that as "how malware works."

Note: elsewhere in this package of briefs, the govt says @MalwareTechBlog tried to dismiss the indictment when he should have asked for a Bill of Particulars. Here, they're saying he can't have a Bill of Particulars.
Aside from the other dickish aspects of this passage (not least that @MalwareTechBlog never claimed he didn't understand English), the swipe "self-proclaimed" is pretty obnoxious.
Also, what does attending DefCon have to do with understanding English?pic.twitter.com/Busy8ZubkO
USG has *just* made a big deal out of whether someone does or does not understand English. But here, they're suggesting @MalwareTechLab should have taken the question, "Are you drunk?" to mean, "Are you drunk, doped, or tired?"pic.twitter.com/JhCfKUlrKs
And fin.
@MalwareTechLab has a hearing today that I won't attend bc I've escaped to the UK, where the weather actually is nice, not like MI and WI.
As @nycsouthpaw said, he's likely to lose the Miranda challenge, bc Miranda has withered and died. But that's setup for trial.
But those briefs on device/wiretap/those elusive 10 computers that got damaged? Hoo boy. Which may be why they've decided to go the superseding route.
