'At Lamo's sentencing, assistant U.S. attorney Joseph DeMarco said Lamo had caused serious financial harm, and was responsible for "a great deal of psychological injury" to his victims. "Until they got to the bottom of what Mr. Lamo had done, they were put in real fear, and I can tell your honor, from speaking to those victims, that it was palpable."'

Just curious. How can a corporation be afraid? Last time I checked, they weren't human and incapable of experiencing emotion.
