Ditto... Imagine if they only prosecuted burglars for more than $80K. Yes there does need to be some sort of clip level but its far to high. I don't know if its $80K but its far too high. The best kept secret in America is "what is the real speed limit". Ask a cop and he will tell you "it depends". The same should be true of computer crimes.
