Nay, but this is kind of complicated. First, the compromising of a tool is difficult to define and this bill does not define it well. It is unclear what it means to invade or degrade a system. Secondly, personal benefit is incredibly vague. It could be argued that if someone is given a screenshot of a discord bot message, they have 'invaded' upon private information and the acquisition of said information is a form of personal benefit. Third, the bill name is atrocious.

 

[Franciscus]

Nay. If people are hacking others, that goes well outside the scope of roleplay. I do not want to set a precedent that it is fair game enough where people might try it and think the only consequence would be in-game.

 

[Anthony_Org]

echoing both multi and Girlfail, I see no reason as to why we should regulate something that is arguably illegal IRL.

 

[Anthony_Org]

also the name is dumb

Nay, I agree with the reasons brought upon by my colleagues. Legitimizing hacking as a form of interaction with the server is completely out of line. The bill is also written hastily and vaguely with no proper definitions to allow us to enforce this in any meaningful way.
