Warning: Spoilers inside!

Just so ya'll know, this implies the government doesn't need a warrant to detain you for allegedly cyber-attacking someone. If they suspect you of being up to no good, they can take measures they deem appropriate. I believe that the article also says it applies to international attacks or breaches aimed at the US

This would be a good thing if it required proof that the suspect was actually doing what they are suspected of

 

Because the people who are writing about it are getting it partially wrong. They still need a federal warrant. And to get that they must show enough proof to be able to say your a suspect.

Generally speaking, sanctions are a still major deal. All your US and international bank accounts (the ones they can find) are frozen.

They can have you locked away from the general public without a phone call for months...not hours or days but months. It can even become years if they find enough evidence against you. It's like they make you disappear without a trace, only worse. Of course this is the worst case scenario. Don't be an idiot and intend to harm and/or steal money from other parties and your safe.
