I feel like having technologically weak education systems are entrapment for people like this.
You put these kids in a cage (school) with other abusive children and then make them interact with that cage and wonder why they keep smashing the cage up… While they’re full of anger, hormones and mentally developing, but sure yeah lets just send the smart kid to prison for 20 years instead of sending them to go be red team.
Or is it because AI took all the junior opsec roles, there’s nobody willing to have him pawned off on them
A culture that weaponises its legal system to protect technical systems that are secured with zipties and bad passwords and band-aid solutions is just asking to get absolutely shat upon by external actors
He was your best shot at protecting yourself from Iranians… lol
Edit: This boy should have been scooped up by the CIA or FBI or something. Maybe he could have helped prevent the FBI losing 100TB of epstein data due to hackers breaking in and thinking it was someones CSAM torrent seed box. The incompetence shown in the depositions was galling.
The breach pierced the education technology company PowerSchool – used by 80% of school districts in North America – and “put at risk the security of 60 million children and 10 million teachers,” the Justice Department said.
You lose the argument when you threaten to leak MILLIONS of our children’s private data.
In a nation where people are desperate to get out of their position being stomped on by the epstein class, I don’t blame them for trying to get that bag and bounce.
You lose the argument when the authorities give the same private data to palantir.
Yeah, we all have to have a red line. Going after children’s data is a net negative. Hackers have all of these terrible companies to extort. No need to bring children into this.
“Barely a year earlier, while still a teenager, he helped launch what’s been described as the biggest cyberattack in U.S. education history”
He is a child, you fucking moron and your kind of vitriol just sent him off to get fucked five ways from friday in the US’s hellish prison system
My red line is putting anyone in there while there are worse people dropping bombs on brown children.
I guarantee if a child can get that data, someone else got it before him anyway and kept their mouth shut.
Fuck your red line.
I didn’t say that being sent to prison was the desired outcome. But at the very least, there needs to be some amount of accountability involved.
Also, chill out. Get some bud, and chill out.
Bro, no, I will not chill. You need to rethink your priorities as a human.
Thank you for your feedback. You really should take a chill pill. Your activism consists of shouting down anyone who doesn’t pass your purity test. Not a good look.
This kid didn’t hack into school systems to change grades- he was extorting millions of dollars from large and small companies to buy drugs and jewelry. I think you are missing the gravity of what he did.
He’s following in your national leaders footsteps of shaking people down for money, its the American Dream, baby.
Then he belongs in jail same as Trump
That is my point. I refuse to be okay with sending a boy to get his behind busted for 20 years for trying to get that bag while the country is otherwise lawless.
“Under no guidance, they can fall into really, really bad habits. Under the right guidance, you can take this generation and use their skills [positively].”
That’s exactly what I thought when I read this. Or, the right guidance to persecute those who would speak truth to power and expose the G-d-awful truth of who we really are, in our very poor, misguided leadership.
I just can’t imagine being so obtuse as to see the sheer leverage they have over this kid and the fact that they desperately, desperately need technical competence in the US agencies right now.
They could lean on this kid forever to make him a good little agent, but no, send the twink boy to the assrape box. Rehabilitation? Whats that.
You romanticizing a situation that doesn’t deserve it. Skilled or not- he hurt people for money. He’s not a Robin Hood fighting the evil corporatists or government.
