I believe you'll find that treaspassing covers the property around the house.
The house is covered by breaking and entering. Trespassing can be for forcing
entry into a house with someone home who has opened the door, but there are
other more strict laws to cover this. Computer breakins are another story.
Industrial espionage is covered by laws, but breaking in for 'fun' from
a home computer or terminal is a new problem. The problem is that the
phone lines are used and attaching a phone line is means that entry from
outside is desirable. This is similar to leaving your door open when you
leave. Prosecuting someone for entering at that time would be almost imposible.
