would it be illegal for me to hack in to the pentagon.?

Yes hacking is illegal the pentagon is a Federal building.

18 U.S. Code § 1030 (a) (1), (2) (B) and (3) of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA) make hacking into any computer or system of the U.S. government a crime under certain conditions clearly defined in the CFAA. The punishment as provided in Section (c) varies from a fine and imprisonment for not more than 1-20 years depending on the specific threat or damage done. The problem with the detailed language defining threats and damages is that the FBI, other law enforcement agencies and the U.S. Attorney General's Office tend to look upon and successful hacking into government computers as de facto evidence of intent to breach the safety of and protected information within the computers, in particular those dealing with defense secrets such as the Pentagon's computers.

So, yes, it would be a federal crime even to attempt to hack into the Pentagon for any purpose.

Your question is proof that the pentagon will never worry about you hacking them , but they may have to keep an eye on you only because someone that's dumb enough to ask such a question and then somehow actually did hack into the pentagon ,would be an embarrassing thing for the pentagon to say the least...wow

completely legal, in fact now that you have asked this question on a public forum while big brother and our nsa nazi government is watching, why don't you give it a go? I'm sure everything will turn out just lovely.

ONLY IF YOU ARE CAUGHT

I wouldn't dare ask this question over the internet....you are very brave to do so.

If you got nothing better to do with the next 5-7 years of your life. Take a shot.

Of course it's illegal. Why on earth do you even want to try it? o_O

You could plead stupidity. Yes.

yes any hacking is illegal, plus if you ever do it and bypass online security etc ,and if you are caught doing so then you will risk going to prison for many reasons such as the form of "Comprising safety to the country" etc...

As hacking is illegal, yes

Yes, it's illegal. I know someone who did that -accidentally. The FBI came and dragged him out of class and took him Washington for questioning. Years later he was called to an FBI office and told they were watching him and his computer usage.

and the dark web

You obviously aren't smart enough to since you have to ASK

Lmao, don't let your dreams be dreams, yesterday you said tomorrow, SO JUST DO IT!!!

why don't you try it & let us know how it works out for you... oh wait, you won't be able to let us know because you will be in prison

...And you felt the need to ask this because...? (FWI, yes. It's "life in prison" or "execution" levels of illegal)

Not if you used Hillary Clinton's Server. Call her directly and see if she
will support your efforts. She is a little selective about whom she helps,
you know. Remember those fine people in Bengazi? they asked for assistance four times and were repeatedly ignored at the top levels in the State Department which Hillary was in charge of. Don't ever let
folks forget about Bengazi.

Hacking into ANY computer system is illegal!

Yes, it is. And by the time the Federal Authorities finished with you, they'd even know how many rolls of toilet paper you've used in your life!

don't you try it and find out?Hope you like orange.

NO ... please do so ASAP, LOL my guess is you couldn't even do such a thing, you are obviously none too bright just by asking such a question !

Most obvious troll ever.

that answer is a big YES == and == it will get you some very long jail time === it is not a game or let us see what happens == it is a really big NO & NO & NO ...

let me ask you this, do you want to spend the rest of your life in federal prison?

Yes.

Probably shouldn't be if you're a citizen of the USA. It's supposedly as much your Pentagon as anyone else's.

Have fun with your tapped computer, bud.

Um, yeah.

yes.

If only I knew how to do it

IF you can, you'd be charged with a felony

good luck trying

It should be, but that may not have stopped those who took the missing trillions before 9/11.

Do you really need to ask this question - you know it is

Yes.
Any hacking is illegal.

That depends on where you live. If you live in a country like Russia or China, there isn't much the USA can do.

Why is everyone thinking that people hack into US government computer systems from the jurisdiction of the USA?

Since you do not even know syntax for the English language, I suspect you have no clue how to hack into Toys "R" Us.
