What Will Happen if You Attempt to Access Your Ex's Computer Accounts
My question involves criminal law for the state of: WA
So one of my friend has guessed his ex gf dating profile password twice and they are incorrect. He was not able to access. He realized it is unethical and regretted his action. How much trouble can he get into? Did he already violate both state and federal law? Would he be sent to jail?

Get in trouble for what? He didn't get in the account. Maybe he needs to just move on and stop worrying about his EX girlfriend's dating profile.

He worries that he could get the website supspected because of those 2 or 3 times failed guess login from a different IP and contact the police. Or he worries that that ex girlfriend would realize someone attempted to guess her password and get the police involved.

You really think the police would get involved if someone came in and said "I think someone tried to hack my dating profile." No.
Also there aren't people who monitor how many incorrect passwords are used. Most sites you get anywhere from 3 tries to 10 to unlimited tries to get into an account. I have forgotten my passwords for things and tried to get into something multiple times and then I just changed the password. If I got a notification that someone tried to access my account, I change my password.
Stop trying to hack your ex girlfriend's dating profile and get a life.

That's what I told him. i think he is okay as long as he no longer does it again. Thanks for the help.

In my humblest opinion possible. You have a lot of weird posts about your ex in your posting Hx. you should just leave who ever the heck this guy is alone, get over the legal crap to try to ruin his life, and move on. Maybe even consider counseling, there are much brighter futures ahead.... whatever he did to wrong you and piss you off.

Yes you're fine as long as you don't hack your ex's dating profile or any accounts anymore.

He is new to the U.S and can't really speak English yet. Anyways, thanks for anyone who contributed to this post. All the efforts are appreciated.
