the HF incident is pretty clear in which laws were broken. this one, not so much.
i can't think of any case where, for example, malicious edits of wikipedia were prosecuted under any law in the US.
>Also when AI agents are set in motion to edit wikis
i do not believe there is evidence that the agents were instructed to edit the wikis.
Fair enough.

Huh? These are machines, built by their human builders. The humans are responsible.
i'm referring to the concept of intent, which at least when prosecuting under the US computer fraud and abuse act, is a critical component.
for example, creating a program that intentionally takes down a website is different than creating a program that has a bug which inadvertently takes down a website. in both cases, the person writing the code is responsible, but the consequences are different.
