Warning About Downgrading + Unenrolling (Laws + Punishments) for you 12 yr olds.

[Alex2Mayhem]

Okay for you people who have no idea what your doing and why you shouldn't do it. and the kids that are complaining
Read this below

Even first-time offenses for accessing a protected computer without sufficient "authorization" can be punishable by up to five years in prison each (ten years for repeat offenses), plus fines. Violations of other parts of the CFAA are punishable by up to ten years, 20 years, and even life in prison.

Goverment Law.

SUMMARY

Someone who hacks into another person's computer could be punished by a number of different crimes, depending on the circumstances. The law punishes hacking under the computer crime statutes. These crimes carry penalties ranging from a class B misdemeanor (punishable by up to six months in prison, a fine of up to $1,000, or both) to a class B felony (punishable by up to 20 years in prison, a fine of up to $15,000, or both). The law also punishes unauthorized access to a computer or computer network, with penalties ranging from a class B misdemeanor to a class D felony (punishable by up to five years in prison, a fine of up to $5,000, or both).

A number of generally applicable crimes could also apply. For example, hacking could be done to commit identity theft or larceny and it could be punished under those generally applicable crimes.
In addition to criminal penalties, the law specifically authorizes someone harmed by a computer or unauthorized use crime to bring a civil lawsuit against the perpetrator. These civil actions are in addition to any other grounds for a civil action that the injured party may have.

COMPUTER CRIMES

A person commits a “computer crime” when he or she:

1. accesses a computer system without authorization;

2. accesses or uses a computer system to obtain unauthorized computer services (including computer access, data processing, and data storage);

3. intentionally or recklessly disrupts, degrades, or causes disruption or degradation of computer services or denies or causes denial of computer services to an authorized user; or

4. intentionally or recklessly tampers with, takes, transfers, conceals, alters, or damages any equipment used in a computer system.
   It is also a computer crime to misuse computer system data. A person commits this crime by:

5. accessing a computer system to use, disclose, or copy data residing in, communicated by, or produced by a computer system;

6. intentionally or recklessly and without authorization (a) tampering with, damaging, or taking data intended for use by a computer system or (b) intercepting or adding to data residing within a computer system;

7. knowingly receiving or retaining data obtained through misuse of computer system information; or

8. using or disclosing data he or she knows or believes was obtained through misuse of computer system information (CGS § 53a-251).

The punishment for committing one of these computer crimes depends on the damage caused and risk of harm created. Table 1 displays the five degrees of computer crime, the amount of damage or harm required for each, and their penalties.

This may vary for different states.

Please don't be dumb you're risking yourself. Your grades, and your Education.

Tbh if they want to do it that bad, they should just get a new Chromebook without enrollment. I'll just wait for the next update.

[3kh0]

@WizardCraft112 L bozo, he did it wrong most likely.

[ghost]

exactly

[ghost]

@3kh0 Doing it at all is wrong.

[ghost]

yea, the only reason he wanted to do it was because he lied to his teacher and his parents grounded him for a month so he couldn't play video games :/

[cooltoo37]

bro for me its been like 6 months downgraded my chromebook to 105 and havent got caught yet i just need some training anybody wanna teach me i need to learn java script first pls

[funkymokey]

Am I allowed to do this if I have received a "personal" Chromebook with enrollment on it?

[BroJac5246]

its not stolen, it is a program that they run ("righting this comment on one") here is a link https://www.hcpl.net/services/connected

Considering it's managed in the first place, I'd assume they want it to stay managed, but whatever 🤷‍♀️

[funkymokey]

I know this is dead but I really should have said that it was given to me from hpcl.net (library) and that it was managed even though there was no restriction to the internet (except for apps)

[BroJac5246]

It sounds like they want it to stay enrolled, but I'd say it comes down to whether you have to give it back at some point. Ultimately, it's probably okay, though, unless they have a reason for having it enrolled.

[bartholemuew]

It sounds like they want it to stay enrolled

skill issue ngl

lucky me i didnt downgrade versions

[qDread-dev]

Downgrading versions and unenrolling are very different

[GlizxyBoi]

Downgrading versions and unenrolling are very different

ahh ok

[deryilz]

can we get much higher

[Piplup7575]

so high

[qDread-dev]

no we can not

[jessiejs]

technically I guess the school might be able to sue you
but will they?
the most they would do is expel you, i sincerely doubt they would go through the effort of suing.

[BroJac5246]

They almost certainly wouldn't sue; it's not cost-effective. However, they could definitely expel, which would have major consequences for your future

[jessiejs]

They probably wouldn't expel, just suspend, but it depends on what school district and who catches you.

[BroJac5246]

They probably wouldn't expel, just suspend, but it depends on what school district and who catches you.

In other words, they could do so

[jessiejs]

Yes, they could, but an expelled student is one they can't make profit from.

[BroJac5246]

can't make profit from.

Yeah but the large majority of students are in public schools, which don't make profit.

[BlueHatCrew]

I’m 14

[jessiejs]

nobody gives a shit <3

[Aka-but-nice]

I’m 14

Seriously, no one here fucking asked bro. Why do you think that's valid?

[jazzymakesstuff]

i purposely only use exploits where i can turn lightspeed back on if i need to because i'm a pussy. also wtf did he think posting here would do.

[Charlieis1nsan3]

not 12 but I know the risks that why you have to be knowledgeable about what you are doing, you have to know how to re-enroll it you have to know how to add kiosk apps back all of that boring stuff.
