Tougher hacking laws get support

Both the Tories and Lib Dems have backed government measures to increase penalties for UK computer hackers.

Anyone hacking a computer could be punished with 10 years’ imprisonment under new laws.

The bill – which was being debated for the first time in the House of Commons on Monday – would also boost the penalty for using hacking tools.
