  • I’m not sure I understand the charges. “X stands accused of the ‘alteration of the functioning of an automated data processing system by an organized group’ as well as the ‘fraudulent extraction of data from an automated data processing system by an organized group.’” The article makes it seem like they are being charged because of how the platform is used, but the charges make it seem like the company hacked into someone else’s system. It’s the former, right?

    I don’t see how the first charge makes sense if that’s the case. How does that differ from just changing the algorithm? Are they suggesting X should never be able to change it?
