School , Work and Play ( World of Tomorrow ) feature this beautiful two - page spread . on the face of it , thanks to computers , there ’s no offence in the future tense outside of the computerized variety .
The “ computer criminal ” fancy really does n’t appear to be running very fast . Maybe they ’re playing a game of frost - rag . Or maybe that policeman ’s ordnance has exceptional preferences the source did n’t tell us about . I like to believe the former , but that ’s just me .
Computers will make the creation of tomorrow a much safe place . They will do off with hard currency , so that you need no longer fear being attacked for your money . In addition , you need not worry that your domicile will be burgled or your motorcar steal . The figurer in your home and car will ward them , allowing only yourself to come in or someone with your license .
However , there is one kind of crime which may exist in the time to come – computer criminal offense . Instead of mugging mass in the street or overcharge houses , tomorrow ’s criminal may attempt to steal money from banks and other organisation using a computer . The computer criminal play from home , using his own figurer to gain access to the memories of the computers used by the bank and companies . The deplorable tries to intervene with the computing equipment to get them to channelize money to his computer without the banking company or company cognise that it has been robbed .
Computer crime like this in fact exists already . However , it is very difficult to carry out a successful looting by computer . Many information processing system have secret codes to prevent anyone but their owners from operate them . As computers are used more and more , it is likely that figurer crime will become more and more difficult to carry out .
Nevertheless , a calculator criminal may succeed now and then and the detective of the future will have to be extremely skilled computer operators . There will probably be police computer - fraud squads , specially trained to divvy up with computer crime . Here you may see a squad arriving at the home of a computer criminal and halt him as he makes a dash for it . He is clutching a computer cassette that check contingent of his computing machine crimes , and the police will demand this as evidence to evidence that he is shamed .
