I have attached a copy of the *Computer and Cybercrimes Bill, 2017 *published
on 13th June, 2017. Clause 12 reads:

*'A person who intentionally publishes false, misleading or fictitious data
or misinforms with intent that the data shall be considered or acted upon
as authentic, with or without any financial gain, commits an offence and
shall, on conviction, be liable to a fine not exceeding five million
shillings or to imprisonment for a term not exceeding two years, or to
both.'*

?Is there a drawback to this approach? ?
