There is, however, a somewhat deeper concern. Namely that providing the tools that makes misdeeds easier makes a person accountable to a degree.
Under law? I mean, I know there's a similar law where I live (Greece) for prostitution, and it's equally ridiculous. Tools, the objects the article is so adamant to categorize Firesheep under (and rightly so), are lifeless, inanimate assistants to whatever purposes a human puts their mind on.
I think it's downright ridiculous to blame a tool, or a tool maker for that matter, for the actions of its users.
