This brings me to U.S. Representative Zoe Lofgren's proposal for an «Aaron's Law» that would decriminalize
breaches in the
terms of service within the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (which is what Aaron is alleged to have done in downloading
too many JSTOR articles that had, one should note, already been published and purchased when they originally circulated in print, before being added to this digital archive named for journal storage).
It is common for a defendant to a
breach of contract claim to raise an allegation that the contract was varied and all
too easy to say there was a verbal conversation to change the
terms.
