Verdict expected soon in Acxiom hack case
Anne Broache writes in C|Net News:
A verdict could be reached early next week in the criminal trial of a bulk e-mailer accused of stealing several gigabytes of personal information from one of the world's biggest data repositories.
Scott Levine, the 46-year-old former chief executive of a bulk e-mail service called Snipermail.com, has been on trial in the U.S. District Court in Little Rock, Ark., for the last four weeks. The U.S. Department of Justice last year called the alleged act one of "the largest cases of intrusion of personal data to date."
Court documents allege that Levine and at least one co-conspirator illegally downloaded thousands of files from servers owned by Acxiom, a Little Rock-based company that stores data from major credit card issuers, retailers, banks and the government.
