> Section 4 says to prioritize prosecuting cyber crimes. Not sure why they wouldn't already be prosecuted.

Not a whole lot of federal prosecutors. They're very selective about what gets pursued or not.

If they can't reliably build cases with a >90% success rate, it doesn't get prioritized. There's like <500 (federal) convictions per year on this whole area.

We hear about a few big famous ones in the news here, but most of it goes completely unenforced.

Not to mention quitting in droves because very many don't want to take these cases or otherwise to stand in court and explain why current admin is not bound by existing laws, court orders, the US constitution in general, or internationally recognized human rights etc.
