Ars story on the legal intricacies of "soliciting" materials from hackers:
"Steinsapir [said] that to prove a journalist solicited hacked materials would require a different timeline than what seemingly took place with Walsh’s phone. It would only be considered 'soliciting' if a journalist had clear intent to access Walsh’s private information by working with the hacker ahead of the hack, not requesting to review the materials after the hack, as Cameron seemingly did."
