Tennessee Personal and Commercial Computer Act, implicit consent for anonymous accesssince 2 lines

Tenn. Code Ann. § 39-14-602 (part of the Tennessee Personal and Commercial Computer Act of 2003, Tenn. Code Ann. §§ 39-14-601 to 39-14-606) · Read the law's page

  • Operating a network in a way that allows anonymous access to it constitutes the network operator's implicit consent to that access under Tennessee law; scraping a public, unauthenticated Tennessee-connected page is, by the statute's own terms, access the operator has impliedly consented to.
  • Do not intentionally access a Tennessee-connected computer, computer system, or network without authorization; the statute defines authorization as any form of consent, and its implicit-consent clause applies to networks operated to allow anonymous access.
