>arrest someone for disrupting a fucking VIDEO GAME
Seriously? Is this what's gonna happen to the fag that DDoS'd today?
Does being on the weekend make the charges worse since normalfags gotta squeeze in that time before they have to change a diaper or something? Lmao what a crybaby company.

lol shut the fuck up OP
He's a cop killer
it can be charged with a federal crime under computer misuse. otherwise laws vary by state
>not the death penalty
Not nearly enough.
>>arrest someone for disrupting a fucking VIDEO GAME
Yes. You think people should be able to engage in such degenerate behavior without consequences?
>Seriously? Is this what's gonna happen to the fag that DDoS'd today?
What he's doing is illegal so he should be arrested and charged. A year in prison is harsh, though; he should be fined though.
RIP in hell.
>getting arrested for actively disrupting a business
First I can't yell the N-word in chat whenever I want without penalty, and now I can't attack property that isn't mine without consequences? Fucking libs ruin everything
Imagine being so assblasted about a video game that your uncontrollable buttrage drives you to commit a crime and go to prison for it.
This guy was definitely from Yea Forums.

Amazon and blizzard/Activision are gonna have lots of fun with these cunts, especially blizzard.
Over the years they've managed to sue and fine/put in prison 100s of cheat sellers/hackers/ddosers in china/Russia and other shit holes, so abunch of fags in the UK are gonna be easy for them.
I remember afew years ago when some owners of cheat selling site were sued for 50 million or a retarded amount like that.
Ddos is a federal crime and it should be treated as such.
Is that why Wikipedia was down? lol
But yeah, messing with a gigantic company like Amazon is how you get yourself completely buttfucked by the long dick of the law.
Eating a succulent chinese meal
Why? I get if it was a hospital server and caused someone to die, but some retard can't watch Netflix for an hour is just as bad?
you fucker i choked
i see you know your judo well
GET YOUR HANDS OFF MY PENIS
No one ever said it's just as bad. The penalty for DDOSing a hospital would almost certainly be much greater.
dumb faggot, bad bait
YOU KNOW YOUR JUDO WELL
Server uptime equals profit, compromising server uptime is taking money out of Blizzard's pocket.
How is it bait? Imagine going to prison because of a video game of all things. It's fucking stupid.
>DDOSers on damage control already
LMAO
Why is it illegal to draw graffiti on the neighbor's house? It's not like anyone will die

I don't see anything wrong here, OP.
This is democrrrracy, manifest!
He isn't going to prison for doing something in a game, he's going for disrupting a corporation's activity.
You shouldn't have laughed at my boots, homie.
Only in Murrica
Actually it would probably be less because a hospital has less money to use in punishing you
fuck you and fuck corporations
get a job
Serves that shitstain right, and I don't even like mmoshit.
>Romania
Nowhere in the world is safe from FREEDOM!
>8 years later
I support punishment for ddosing but doing it this long after the fact is absurd.
>were sued for 50 million
Blizz gave them the millions to close down, retard
>NAP STATUS: VIOLATED
You realize that he cost Blizzard tens of thousands of dollars by doing that, right? It's the same thing as walking in the vault at a bank and setting a huge pile of money on fire. Just because he didn't steal anything doesn't mean he didn't do damage.
>cost Blizzard tens of thousands of dollars
did he take 25 cents of all our sub money at once?
Not even America
>Disrupting a business, causing financial loses.
>Shouldn't be punished
One year is fair.
no, but a lot of times blizzard has to respond to complaints by extending time. i bitched about it and pointed out i had all my characters on one server, and they extended my subscription for every day i was missing. which was like 4? or 5?, now do that for a large chunk of players, the on top of that exaggerate losses a bit as a way to say fuck you to the guy.
Romania has states?
The DDoS is a hoax. WoWfags are just looking for excuses as to why Classic is dying.
Sure they did, and they actually accepted the money and then, for some baffling reason, didn't keep selling the hacks?
>Blizz takes 9 years to have someone charged for messing with their shit
wew
you gay or something lmao
DoS has always been illegal, you can get vanned just for participating in a DDoS
Imagine committing a crime over video games.
>tfw you live in a country that has lot of zombie computers
>Get ip range banned though I didn't do anything.
Any game for this feel?
It's similar to going into a business and just wrecking the place, I dont see why Yea Forums is so shocked at this.
why is classic so popular?
Yes, the DDoS that happened almost 10 years ago was a hoax related to a game that's been out for two weeks. Blizzard planned it along. Or you're just a blithering idiot.
>dude you should be allowed to break the law if your crime is related to video games
Ok but why though?
>blizzard intentionally crashed their own servers as part of their plan to market classic
This is a new level of cope.
I mean vidya does seem immune to false advertising laws.
Source? Why would this be related to the Wikipedia ddos?
...
But WHY did it take 8 years to prosecute the guy?
>stop people from playing a video game
>have your freedom taken from you and put into prison for a whole year
i'm not saying what he did was a good thing, hell i'm a wow player myself but fuck sake it's just a game like oh noo i couldn't grind SM gy for 8 hours straight to get to level 40 oh noooo put this monster in prison!!!
christ
Good. Now if only they would do this to the chinks and Russians who are usually the ones responsible for this crap. I’m still steaming over the fact chink and Russian botted and hacked my favorite mmo and destroyed it and every measure the dev took to fight hacking, the chinks and Russians would just DDOS them for hours out of revenge. RIP archage, the chinks killed you too soon
Cyber crime is still a crime no matter what or who you did it too.
kill all ddossers
>DDoS
>back in 2010
Doesn't the statute of limitations do something about this?
>disrupt a subscription service
>people cancel their subs or decide not to sub in the first place
That's what this is about. This guy likely caused real monetary loss to Blizzard.
OP is a massive faggot Lmao
They can't put this guy who did the DDoS today in prison, he's a 14-year-old skid.
>all the coporate cocksucking ITT
But whatever, it's only 1 year. What seems funny is that they'll fly him all the way to burgerland for 1 year in prison.
lol. this
>arrest someone for disrupting a fucking VIDEO GAME
They aren't disrupting a VIDEO GAME you fucking retard. They're disrupting the livelihood of thousands of employees by agitating their customers. Imagine if you were flipping you burgies at McDonalds, then some dude came and tied off the entrance to the line rope stands. Then you have customers who cannot get the product they want. If they cannot get their product, it effects you in the end because these people fund your livelihood.
>some gypsy fucktard ruins the CONSUMERS experience
>hurr corporate cocksucking

Fuck off faggot. This kind of shit has happened for years it’s about time we crack down on DDOSers who ruin online games in their infancy. You don’t punish a crime and you only encourage dumb ass kids to follow suit. Just kill yourself
what is that
some kind of 5 second rule but for the law?
Dipshit. Hang yourself dumb nigger.
Jail time is harsh for DDoSing. I'd sooner say a pricy fine followed by community service. Literally doing jail time for cybercrimes that harm no one is fucking retarded when rapist at let use only a few months later.
Keep fucking seething you useless faggots, I'm sure multibillion dollar corporations care enough about you to pay 5 cents for each post ardently defending your cucksumerism. Kill yourselves and give your bodies to company you retarded blizzcucks
It took EIGHT years for the guy to get sentenced? Jesus fucking Christ
it's not just a game, it's a business operation
you'd probably get arrested for preventing a starbucks location from operating its business
I'm glad your relative is in jail.
Seething over what lel? You’re the one bitching and crying about corporations because some DDOSer got his comeuppance

One year is nothing. This guy got ten for DDoSing a hospital.
good. what a filthy subhuman.
Imagine some guy stopped everybody from visiting museums for a day. It deserves jail time you dingdongs.

Let's be real though, jail time for nonviolent crimes is abhorrent. Fine this guy, ban him from using the internet, whatever, but there's no legitimate reason to put him in prison. He's not a "danger" to society.
Legal systems suck
Uh oh, the retard knows how to Caps Lock; we're fucked bros.
the best part is, prison/jail doesn't even rehabilitate anyone to reintegrate back into society, they'll just lock you in a cage and treat you like an animal and then wonder why there's so many reoffense rates
this. THIS. THIS IS THE ONLY PERSON WHO UNDERSTANDS DDOSING AND STREAM SNIPING ARE JUST HARMLESS MEMES AND PRANKS. FUCK CORPORATE COCK SUCKERS. EVEN THIEVES AND MURDERERS GET AWAY WITH LESS. FUCK YOU. ENJOY DEFENDING SHECKELBERG CORPORATIONS PROFITS.
Don't forget your life is essentially fucked since few places will hire you.
Committing crimes like vandalism and DDoS attacks is possibly a sign of deeper rooted problems and should be punished and the perpetrator rehabilitated.
Good, cunts doing that to hospitals deserve no pity.
should have gave him life, what a faggot
>just a dorky bald guy with glasses
Why was he so fucking cool?
thousands cannot access their wow server. A wow account requires $15 or 50 cents a day. 50 cents a day times a million equals this guy getting 37 years worth of prison since that's how much time he stole away from innocent players.

Still, ten years in eastern european pound-me-in-the-ass-prison, that's pretty fucked.

We need to imprison the government.

Time is literally not the only resource, retard.
Nobody is saying he shouldnt be punished at all. But he shouldnt be flied over to a fucking country hes never been in to sit in fucking jail for a year and a half waiting for sentencing then to be sentenced to 1 year in prison because of some jackoff US judge's indictment from EIGHT years ago on something he did NINE years ago, and his home country where he is a citizen just spinelessly arrests and extradites him and bends over and goes "sure, america, fuck our sovereignty and our courts and our legal process and defending our citizens, you can send this gaymer to prison for DDOSing a fucking european server for a shitty MMO an american company made that prevented gaymers from logging in for like an hour (what a tragedy), oh also pay them 30k$"
>people are litterally dieing if they don't play WoW

No, disrupting sales by attacking someone's network is illegal. That's different from an advertising campaign against a company.
You only think its bad because you hate blizzard.

So then how should he be punished? A stern talking to?
Most other countries respect their own sovereignty. Not romania i guess

the truth is romania didn't care enough about the little 38 year old incel WoW-turd to put him through their own legal system. hes a useless waste and good riddance.

If anything it’s like shoving a giant dildo into someone’s throat. while they’re trying to eat
Nowhere in my post did I say it was a good thing. In fact it’s absolutely irrelevant to what’s been happening today
>Nowhere in my post did I say it was a good thing

It's noise complaint level where it affects an apartment of thousands, so yeah expect to get thrown out on your ass.
He hacked an american tech company in 1999 at age 19 and 5 years later set up a scam to intercept 10 million dollars worth of shipments to himself and his buddies, and they actually managed to get half of that.
I don't think he's a good guy or should be unpunished, but I say he's a lot more valuable than you ever will be, pathetic bootlicker. Romania would ideally be interested in not letting america bully its sovereignty whether over a smart hacker scammer OR a complete nobody

Fuck rehabilitation. It should be purely about punishment.
Statute of limitations isn't universal, and some crimes have no statute of limitations. Even so, you can still be sued in civil court for damages done during a DDoS.

I can't be bothered to look this shit up, but I call bullshit. Are you telling me that Blizzard was so asspained they got the FBI involved, who went through the hassle of extraditing some dude from a third world shithole? And said shithole country actually allowed it happen over something as innocuous as DDOSing a video game?

You’re right, OP. the precedent is set that if you disrupt a business, you are a-ok. Just exercising first amendment rights! Go ddos more things!
He's a valuable asset in several ways, even AT THE VERY LEAST to establish sovereignty and maintain the legitimacy of your own judicial system and thus entire fucking government geopolitically. Same reason Julian Assange or Edward Snowden aren't rotting in america right now, you brainlet

Well then he shouldnt have ddosed an american company in a country that has an extradition treaty with america? You arent immune to other countries laws just because you arent a citizen.
>Julian Assange or Edward Snowden
Because they're assets against the US government. Some guy scamming money is not on the same level as somebody who leaked government secrets.
He maliciously disrupted the service of a company, I'm not sure what you expected. This isn't about nerds not getting their fix, it's about actiblizzard not getting their money.
I mean disney of all things is pandering to china now.

If he broke Romanian laws, which I'm sure he did, they should have tried him in the country he was staying and where he was arrested, not a country he might not even have set foot to. That's how it works in self-respecting countries. Hell, usually extradition is for bringing people BACK to countries where they are citizens instead of letting foreigners be the masters of your fate. This was an ultimate cuck move on Romania's part.
This guy stole 5 million from an American tech company in 2004, was the figurehead of the plot and the max sentence out on his head was 90 fucking years. They dropped that case after he got sentenced for the WoW thing and paid Blizzard 30k. Seems legit, guys. Use your fucking head for once, you bootlickerd.
based, fuck ddosers
Why waste the money if they can lock you up for obvious criminal acts instead?
>ddosing is why I'm outside the streamers shard
THEY NEED TO BURN IN HELL!
The ddos attack in question was 10 years ago retard
>go to UPS delivery storage house
>pop the wheels of the delivery cars
>"YOOOO IT WAS JUST A PRANK BRO"
no shit he'd get in trouble what did the retard think, if nothing happened then people will DDOS multiplayer games all the time for shit and giggles
break the law go to jail, not that complicated
Yeah i wish that would actually happen
Too bad prison has been proven to make the criminal MORE violent in the future.
many people quit wow for life due to the ddos attacks
>only murders are crimes
>guy commits petty crime online against a massive developer
>better throw him in prison with murderers, drug dealers, and general psychopaths
Justice!
For real though, the justice system desperately needs an overhaul.
>Romanian sentenced for DDoSing a game server
Shit, that's like being the one car the cops randomly decide to stop when everyone on the interstate is doing 20 over.
It's a feature, capitalism working as intended
>ride bike infront of ups truck
>get sued cause their posts didn't arrive by 8pm
Or being a sand nigger at the airport.
>DDOSing is not intentional
literally "he dindu nuffin "
>Intentionally ride bike slowly
>ups truck is behind me
>get run over
>get sent to jail
there you happy?
Oh fuck off you retarded commie, you think people even get jail time for fucking with tencent over there?
Nigger you can't unintentionally DDoS something.
You're insane if you think lawyers wouldn't do hoops for a chance to do that for free. It would be a decently high profile case and they would look good by helping the hospital get justice for any lost lives.
Not to mention the person would be charged for numerous counts of assault and maybe even manslaughter if anyone died. The hospital wouldn't need to do anything, the state would immediately arrest and charge him.
He's going to a federal prison, he should be fine.
>put up a billboard roadblock in the middle of a highway to inform people of bad practices in business
This is a more apt analogy
Blocking traffic is a crime, dipshit. Get bent.
Free tibet, winnie pooh.
Committing a DDOS attack is illegal regardless of who you commit it against, he's being arrested for cybercrime, not for "disrupting a videogame" you inbred mushbrain.
In the 80s and 90s it would've been unthinkable for a hacker to be extradited to the US, no matter how serious. Every country would tell the US to fuck off. Before the mid-2000s it was almost unthinkable for an obvious joke, I mean, "threat" or worse "hate speech" to get the cops at your door, even adjusting for the lack of social media, as there were stiil chatrooms, blogs etc.
Just imagine the utter shithole the internet will be in 10 years.
What are the chances this will happen on Friday when borderlands 3 launches? Randy has made some enemies and I can see some other script kiddie ddosing EGS or whatever infrastructure they have for multiplayer
They should throw this fucking degenerate in jail for a year for putting ketchup on a steak. Seriously what the actual fuck? Americans are disgusting.
You say that like every other company only has the purest of intentions for the internet and hasn't been seething for around two decades before the oligopoly took over and they were free to subject everyone to their fucking retarded laws because we're basically out of alternatives at this point.
I still can't believe that's a real poster the British Government put up and not a piece of satire. That entire rainy island is fucked.
You do realize that you have to pay people large sums of money to deal with DDoS's on complicated game server infrastructure, right? We're talking hours of work.
imagine being on Yea Forums while not being over the age of 18
I think the artist they commissioned did it on purpose and the government was too oblivious to realize how sinister it looked.
TATA AND FAREWELL
he disrupted video game REVENUE, not just the game.
>Seriously? Is this what's gonna happen to the fag that DDoS'd today?
Yes because the US is owned by corporations and they don't tolerate the slightest disturbance.
If its a shit quality steak its fine to use ketchup. If its good meat then yeah its a bit wasteful to drown out the meats flavour with something so strong. I hate cringey reddit reactions like yours though.
they didn't want to waste time and resources on some WoW playing incel. its not hard to understand .
No. You pay for your mistakes sooner or later.
Wait, why did Romania hand him over to the US? He's supposed to serve his sentence in the country he was arrested at/home country
DDoS'ing is a Federal Crime
Don't be an edgy fag and you won't go to jail
kinda curios, how the fuck does it work with all these metoo shenanigans? rape a capital crime, or do the whores just slander dudes and thats it? but then again cosby did go to jail.
>shitpost an MMO
>go to jail
I cant wait for pks going to jail.
You gotta actually prove it, hence all the "DNA" language in these laws.
None. You're vastly overestimating its importance. Nobody gives 3 shits.
No, but they do have extradition to the United States.
I understand fucking up something important like hospital databse or whatever, but this shit... lol
Notice that almost none of these men bring the women up on charges of criminal defamation.
If you accuse someone of committing a crime that they did not actually commit, that's per se defamation.
Defamation charges in civil court in the US are hard to do, but if it's per se defamation it's a lot easier.
If somebody accuses you of a crime you did not commit, press charges of slander/libel. The only defense for per se defamation is that it's actually true.
By definition, per se defamation cannot be fair comment or non-actionable opinion.
>Yes. You think people should be able to engage in such degenerate behavior without consequences?
Why won't the entire Blizzard staff get gassed for disrupting the video games industry then?
Multinationals don't fuck around, they rule the world
Libel as a crime is hard to prove, and that's not even getting into the fucked social climate we're in these days, however, this "metoo" thing is essentially on the lines of a direct verbal threat as there is a necessary implication that people will seek and attack this person should the libel not be successful.
It's actually a lot easier to prove as a crime than as a civil offense, see my post above.
As a civil offense, you have to prove that you suffered damages, and it's harder if you're a public figure.
Accusing someone of a crime is per se defamation in the US.
also curious
>DDOS hospital
>A childrens hospital
Literally what is even the point?
Ow the edge. I see someone just started their rebellious phase. Don't let your grades drop too much or your parents will take away the Xbox.
Black button up shirt with flames on it
yea, this is better. i dont give a fuck what you're protesting if you are protesting. if you get in my fucking way i'm going to hate you. its a goddamn miracle no one ever died when those freeway protests were happening.
this
the bigger issue is using a plastic butter knife to cut meat
>Notice that almost none of these men bring the women up on charges of criminal defamation.
Because hiring lawyers that will cost you thousands of dollars every month to prosecute something with no evidence is pretty hard to do. Which is why these women just say lies in public to begin with. At least some of them are lies at least.
The fact that its a videogame has nothing to do with it you absolute shit eating retard.
The money being lost is blizzard's you dumb fuck
>tfw be eurobro
>tfw have normal sleep schedule
>tfw just finish a ZF run when servers start to go down at 10 PM
>go to sleep, wake up
>servers stable again
Feelsgoodman
Maybe somebody should look at fixing them.
I support jailing the guy in theory but it really doesn't seem worth it 8 years after the fact.
You don't need an expensive lawyer. It's a per se violation.
The onus is upon them to prove that what they said was true, otherwise it's a crime.
There is no defense other than truth for defamation per se. By definition defamation per se cannot be fair comment or a non-actionable opinion.
The only evidence you need is the written (or spoken, which is a lot harder) statement.
Please know the law.
>for disrupting a BUSINESS with paying customers
Basically this. Imagine going to a McDonalds and cutting the power lines, you'd be arrested too.
why shouldnt you be punished for willingly causing damage?
>bomb a toy store
>get sentenced to prison
>nerds on Yea Forums: WHAT THE FUCK ITS JUST TOYS WHY WOULD ANYONE GIVE A SHIT
That's not actually true, I know you think you are well versed but you are not.
topkek
>You don't need an expensive lawyer
You need a lawyer and have to spend time in court, especially when the person defending themselves attempts counter-suit.
Blizzard does not sell a product, first and foremost. They provide a service and license to access the aforementioned service: nothing more, nothing less. Even if they suffer a denial of service, they're still being paid due to the subscription fee. It should frankly be illegal to run this business model, as they can suspend your ability to access the service that you've paid to access for the slightest reason if they simply feel that running it is no longer profitable.
>Pay for cable
>Somebody cuts all the cable lines in your town
>Somehow this is Comcast's fault
Imagine being this European.
Watching all these dumb kids crumble and shake because they realize the internet is legally protected and part of the real world is hilarious.
So glad I did all me edgy teenage "hacker" shit years ago.
Are you ready to receive my limp penis?
Society has degraded to the point where it is being seriously debated whether denial of service cyber attacks should be crimes.
1 fucking year? He should've gotten a warning or community service
America's prison system is broke for shit
who even cares if it's a crime?
Blizzard could still milk them dry in civil courts.
They shook the hornet nest of Jew.
>Blizzard does not sell a product, first and foremost
>They provide a service and license to access the aforementioned service
E.g. a product. But you're some pseudo-intellectual who huffs his own farts which is why you made this laughable post while thinking you sounded smart.
>Foreign threat
>Giving them community service
he's lucky. Very fucking lucky he got off that easy as a non US citizen.
World of Warcraft and other games as a service do not act as products despite legal consideration; as if the servers are shut down, your ability to access the service is hindered. A product would not have this issue as it would be provided whole for a singular fee rather than a subscription. You are a retard.
Cable is a service.
So if I go chop every cable line in my town, it's the service providers fault?
Prison is meant for those who are a threat for society
I don't think this Romanian virgin would be a threat to anyone, by giving him a warning and a fine he'd probably never do it again and he would've paid for he did
>DDoSing a game that caters to NEETs is a bad thing
Cable =/= games. Games as a service is a fraudulent scam protected by legal loopholes in a market where ownership of titles was once prominent, compared to how cable television is the entire basis of television plans.
>So if I go chop every cable line in my town, it's the service providers fault?
bad equivalence.
it'd be more like the service provider itself suddenly cutting the line because they think that providing service for you is not profitable anymore.
and even then the comparison is still faulty since with videogames there are means to preserve them like releasing the source code or providing means to run private dedicated servers.
Guess he should've been born in a more powerful government that wouldn't bend to the big American dick.
If he was Chinese instead of from the 3rd world he wouldn't be in prison, the Chinese would never give one of their own up like weak Europeans do.
FFXIV isn't being ddosed silly
>Actually defending DDoS'ers
I can smell right trough you, maggot. Most pathetic type of malicious coder. Dumber than an actual virus creator, genuinely more pathetic than a script kiddie.
Since you love to mouthbreathe so much, take a gun and breathe in some high velocity lead you fucking waste of coding potential.
Video/movies/tv/streaming as a service isn't any different.
it's the easiest way to out retarded kids and spiteful techlets.
except that with games like wow you paid for a product with the initial purchase.
so what should've been a product is actually a service making it a fraud, protected by loopholes in halfassed laws
With Comcast you pay for a router to be installed. You don't own it, it's Comcast's property.
I'm not defending this. I'm saying it's been standard way before video games.
Kek if this isn't bait I suggest you take your own advice, imagine defending someone being arrested because he made you turn off your videogame for the day.
>H-hah because you think I'm dirt you must defend these retards
No. You are simply shit. For the love of god either kill yourself or do something worthwhile with your life, ddostard.
>Missing the point
Imagine defending a kid who uses their moms credit card to get attention of Twitter. Not a single line of code written.
If you weren't so young you'd see Skids as less than human too.
He's incapable of hacking into any servers, so he does this. It's pathetic. You're defending someone lower than a twitch paypig.
ie a physical component that has a monetary value.
now what the fuck do you pay for with a product purchase for a service game?
>It's ok to buy a router but legally it's under the ownership of Comcast. This is ok.
Holy fuck nevermind you're insane. You're just fixated on this dumb Vidya shit. Not being to own your own physical items is much worse than 1s and 0s. Delusional.
To anyone that doesn't know the full story here's the TLDR
>Faggot scriptkiddie chav decides he wants internet fame and twitter followers
>Starts off DDOSing Wikipedia of all things, for no real reason but since he's a retarded chav there's no reason in anything he does
>Same day, he starts DDOSing Twitch servers so he can get the attention of streamers for more popularity
>Day after that, he decides to DDOS WoW and since he's fucking garbage at being a script kiddie, he starts knocking most of Blizzard's game servers off for a bit
>People find the retard because he's a retard
>Twitter gets banned because again, he's a retard
>Will probably get hit with a hard sentence because chavs aren't people
Holy shit you are a fucking idiot. please stop posting you're making a fool of yourself.
You forgot.
>Blocked an user on Twitter because he couldn't handle the heat.
Eating a meal, a succulent chinese meal
When I saw this thread I thought they were talking from the nigger from yesterday
dang, glad I never got into that, mostly because it had a paid subscription to play which sounded fucking stupid to me, since I had only played ones you pay for once and get the game, no fuss no muss
Still sounds stupid actually, I get why they do it but I can't think of ever spending on a "subscription" to a game, at least if I used that on a magazine subscription I could have some magazines to read, I still pick up my old ones sometimes
anyway I can't say I pity the guy but that does seem like a lot for something like that, people get community service for worse so I bet he stole info or something that they didn't want to disclose or had no proof of so they lumped it on thick for the DDoS thing, like Al Capone dodging taxes
You forgot
>Use the same email for his twitter that he uses for his Facebook so people found that rather quickly.
