| Message | This would allow for the law to hold people accountable for crimes that were commited through the internet, because although they were not commited in person they are still crimes. As well as making it easier for the police to use the internet to catch crimanals, because with search sytems already set up to scan and filter the internet it woudn't be a problem to look for clues. |
