This is outside my realm of experience, but I have to say that I am
surprised that attempts to merely access a server with the *intent* of
malfeasance is not considered to be a crime. So, I can keep banging away
at a bank's server and, as long as I don't break in, I've not committed any
crime?

That doesn't smell right to me.

I thought I'd notice law enforcement to see if something can be done
before damage happens and it turns out that there is NOTHING that can be
done. This is clearly malicious in intent but since no crime has been
committed, nobody can do anything about it. I checked with the local
police and the state police and I get the same response from both. I
suppose I could call the FBI, but I suspect they will sing the same
song.
