Canon Connections: Strange New Worlds 2x02 - Ad Astra per Aspera

Regarding Boimler accessing the crew's personal logs to create his holodeck simulation in Crisis Point, I continue to believe that he's secretly a skilled hacker and that his access to those logs was flagrantly illegal. But since the only people he mentioned it to were his friends, they didn't call him out for it.

Amazing as always!

As for regulations around personal logs, Star Trek has a long and confusing history with how it deals with privacy. I swear we've seen personal logs pulled up numerous times before (that one episode in TNG with Geordi and that woman's dog?), including "Crisis Point" as mentioned.

Given that, I'd take it that Starfleet's rules regarding personal logs are primarily focused on their admissibility in court, rather than general accessibility.

I look forward to these every week and am so glad that they are here!

”It would seem that the rules of Starfleet only apply when a captain deems that they do.” Please see “All of Star Trek”.

Ain't that the truth.
