using the existing systems such as the internet, and this includes chat rooms, emails, notice boards, or even groups. And of course, we should not forget cell phones. This type of crime must be identified and classified

and we also need to know how criminals can be prosecuted. And of course, the Department of Justice in the US is taking the same procedures and definition as any other type of crime. And of course, these crimes have been classified as such. The computer is used as a target. I mean, for example,
