Run a remailer, go to jail?

While taking a look at the proposed Texas law, it appears that it
only applies if you are trying to actually cause harm:

QUOTE: 
SECTION 2.  Sections 31.12(a), (b), and (e), Penal Code, are 
amended to read as follows:
	(a)  A person commits an offense if, with the intent to harm 
or defraud a communication service

It doesn't look as bad as it was made out to be, but it all
depends on how they determine "intent".

[Moderator's note: is using a NAT box "intent to defraud" a cable
modem provider? --Perry]
