Didn't Say He Would Do Time . . .
I never said it was crime -- Apple will decide if it warrants
pressing charges. The guy's post just made it sound like prison
in the US is worse than Norway. Maybe, but I think he'd be
wrong. Prison would be a bad time anywhere in the world.

Personally, this hacker sounds like he wants attention, why else
inform ZDNet? I'm sure he is quite good at what he does and is
now bored with altering his buddies grades on their report cards
at school or hacking Amazon.com.

I don't know any hackers but some sound more like malicious
reclusives who live in a dark basement with computers all
around them as they try to crack the CIA mainframe. Others like
to write little virii to infect the world, abuse MS, or send a
political statement. Others, I'm sure "do good" with their super
powers.

Overall, this is like an artist who has a gallery showing pictures
of women giving birth. It's "art" . . . no it's disgusting but the
artist calls it art so he/she can shock and awe and get publicity.
Similar to this young fella.

Just my opinion.
