In your article "Computers, Mobiles and the Divorce Detectives", you state that computer hacking is illegal. Can you please point me to the specific legislation where it states that it is illegal to hack into someone's personal email account without their permission (and then use the evidence openly against that person in Court)? Is it part of the Human Rights Act or is there a specific UK law against this? My understanding is that emails are the modern version of letters. I know that there is specific legislation which makes it illegal to open someone else's mail - does this also apply to emails? Drew Dear Marilyn,
