(just utilizing resources is not prosecutable).
It's worth mentioning that that's true of Federal law, but isn't
necessarily true of state law. For example, California Penal Code
section 502 provides for the conviction of anyone who ``knowingly and
without permission accesses or causes to be accessed any computer,
computer system, or computer network''. Some other states have similar
provisions.
