Well, you wouldn’t want just anyone with a law background to chime in. You’d want someone with specific knowledge of constitutional law. I’m not a lawyer at all, so take what I’m saying with a grain of salt. My understanding of the argument is this:
There is a process for convicting a president of the USA. That process was followed, and this president was not found guilty (he was impeached, but the senate ultimately prevented him from going to trial). Since the alleged crime happened during his presidency, and he wasn’t tried, this DC Circuit court simply does not have the authority to send him to trial.
I have no idea where the judges are gonna land on this one, but it seems like whatever the decision is, it will have an impact on future presidents.
Spearfishing is probably the lowest risk and easiest way to get access to a specific network. The attacker can get a bunch of info about an organization (technologies used, people employed, physical locations) through LinkedIn or whatever social media website, and then target a specific person.
Once a target is identified, the next step would be getting that person to follow a link to type in a password, or getting them to install malware, or do whatever it is the attacker wants them to do. I read an article about a dude that got fairly big companies to pay him money by just sending fake bills.
