The problem is that governments and corporations own the media and this
story is not going to be represented in a fair way > to John Q. Public. I feel very sorry for the kid...he's only in high school and now he'll probably have a criminal record
(federal).
Why feel sorry for him? While it's true that the blame for the problem lies mainly with Microsoft and unpatched systems, this kid is an adult and he knew what he was doing was illegal. He also knew the potential consequences. At some point he made the conscious decision to disregard the law and, thereby, accept any consequences his actions might incur. Nobody forced him to do it. It was his choice. Anthony Saffer SCS Consulting Services www.safferconsulting.com _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
