Page "Computer Fraud and Abuse Act" Paragraph 48

* United States v. Neil Scott Kramer, 2011.

Kramer was a court case where a cellphone was used to coerce a minor into engaging sex with an adult.

Central to the case was whether a cellphone constituted a computer device.

Ultimately, the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit found that a cell phone can be considered a computer if " the phone perform arithmetic, logical, and storage functions ," paving the way for harsher consequences for criminals engaging with minors over cellphones.
