He plagues gaming communities, how terrible. Take away his autonomy!
Listen to yourself. He needs meds and house arrests at most. I do not propose to know how to discourage a compulsive hacking disorder, but why on Earth should a judge sentence him to imprisonment on behalf of Rockstar for a leak?
No remorse, in fact he actively wants to do it again as soon as he’s able, check.
I sincerely hope he gets the help he needs, but unless and until a qualified medical professional personally guarantees he won’t regress, it would be downright irresponsible to allow this kid to continue doing what he does.
You quoted the least compelling part of the article. Literally who cares about Rockstar, Nvidia, and BT?
The only part that might require hospitalization/lockup IMO might be this:
During Thursday’s hearing, the court heard Kurtaj “had been violent while in custody with dozens of reports of injury or property damage,” the BBC reports. A mental health assessment also found that Kurtaj “continued to express the intent to return to cybercrime as soon as possible.” He’s required to stay in the hospital prison for life unless doctors determine that he’s no longer a danger.

Did you think this discussion was about the legality of the sentence?
The prevailing wisdom on lemmy seems that it’s fair game apparently as long as the targets are corporations
God knows no fury like a mildly inconvenienced liberal.
