Muhtasari
- In Tanzania, the Cybercrimes Act, 2015 makes intentional and unlawful access to a computer system an offence.
- And that brings us to something you may not have heard discussed this way before: cyber trespass.
- At first, you might think, “Well, if Intel said stop and he kept sending the emails, surely that is trespass.” But the court looked a little deeper.
- The court therefore did not treat Hamidi’s conduct as trespass to chattels simply because the messages were unwanted.
- And that case teaches us that not every unwanted thing online is automatically cyber trespass.
