Hi,

Does anyone know of a court case where a hacker was exonerated in part
because of "Welcome"  was displayed on a gateway system?

I've looked very hard for that, and repeatedly asked folks who claim they know 
of such a case to send me a pointer.  Thus far, I've found nothing.

I repeat my plea -- if you know of such a case, please send me some sort of 
verifiable citation or pointer.
