The timing here is not great, is it?

(I think the law is a step forward, though I don't think it does enough to mitigate the real problem with CFAA, which is that sentences under CFAA scale with dollar damages. The bit about making it harder to "accelerate" CFAA crimes when they're done in furtherance of crimes that are also CFAA crimes is also very important, but doesn't address the core flaw of the statute.)
