Terroristic threats
And much, much more.
Revealing classified information
HIPAA violations
That’s what it is. You have no right to use other people’s stuff. If people let you use their stuff, they can tell you how you can use it, and they can tell you to stop using it any time they want.

Fraud
False advertising
Threats of violence
What one thing makes someone a very mature person?
Insider trading
Revenge porn
Child pornography
What would have happened if Shin was a good movie instead of a bad one?
Conspiracy
Trade secrets
You have freedom to travel. If I loan you my car, I can tell you not to take it out of town, because it’s mine, you have no right to use it, and if I give you permission to use it I can tell you what you can and can’t do with it.
