Answer to Question 1

The dissenters in this case,
however, argued that Intel had invested in its e-mail system to make the company more
productive and Hamidi was interfering with that. Assess these two positions using
philosophical reasoning to justify one view or the other.



Answer to Question 2

In those early days of the Internet, it appears that the
government might have been using him as an example to discourage other secretive
computer users from trying anything similar. Defend the government's action in
prosecuting and punishing him, using ethical reasoning.
