What is the legality of unauthorized access to somebodies laptop / phone?
Example - If I used software to bypass the login screen on my girlfriends laptop, and then installed a keylogger and also accessed her Facebook account via her web browser, and she really wanted to attempt to press charges
How fucked could I potentially be?
she'll just tell everyone on facebook what you did and you'll be branded a scumbag for life
protip: she's cheating on you (with me)

It's OK, I'm a cuck
In most jurisdictions, this is completely illegal. The details differ, naturally.

It would probably be bad legally, but not as bad as what you are putting her through if you are spying on her. Just cut her loose if you can't handle her
A stupid misdemeanor but really, how beta do you have to be to do all that.
Which jurisdiction dude. Different countries have different laws, you know

United States. PA, specifically.
I should also mention that I've done this dozens and dozens of times over the past couple of years.
