UTICA, N.Y. (Reuters/Zogby) - Tampering with computers and the
Internet should be charged as a felony, most Americans said in a
recent nationwide survey.

A Zogby America poll of 1,155 adults showed that 64.2% of respondents
strongly agreed that interfering with Internet services should be
considered a felony and punished severely.

Another 24.1% somewhat agreed while a combined 8.3% strongly or
somewhat disagreed.

What we asked:

``How strongly do you agree or disagree that computer hacking, which
disrupts Internet services provided by a company, should be considered
a felony and a severely punished crime, strongly agree, somewhat
agree, somewhat disagree, or strongly disagree?''
