In Hamilton's trial, the judge accepted his claim that he did not intend his customers to build bombs or commit burglaries and had not read the instructions himself, even though he had seen a computer-generated list of the files he sold. (It included such file names as "bombs.txt," "bombs2.txt" and "How to Break into a House.txt.") He did not mention bomb-making or housebreaking in his promotional e-mails. |
