Holy clickbait thread title from OP.

He is on indefinite hospital hold and it looks like for rehabilitation. He can be cleared and released by a physician.

An accomplice was sentenced to a year and a half in a rehab program.

That's awful for a kid. They are stupid. A good number of us are probably lucky to be alive with the dumb fuck shit we did at 18.

edit: post number 13. I should know better than to take these headlines at face value.

Not just GTA.

A mental health assessment used as part of the sentencing hearing said he "continued to express the intent to return to cybercrime as soon as possible. He is highly motivated."
The jury was told that while he was on bail for hacking Nvidia and BT/EE and in police protection at a Travelodge hotel, he continued hacking and carried out his most infamous hack.
Despite having his laptop confiscated, Kurtaj managed to breach Rockstar, the company behind GTA, using an Amazon Firestick, his hotel TV and a mobile phone.

And he would still do it? Send him to the Chinese camp or North Korean camp seriously. He will come back a new man. U.S needs to create a program with China, Russian and NK to send some people to their rehabilitation camps.

Yes, I am for real.

You're out of your mind if you're implying that it's okay to hack and steal data from a company because the games they create have illegal activities in them.

leaking grand theft auto gets you more years in jail than actually committing grand theft auto.

Did you even read the article? He is responsible for more than leaking GTA footage. He is autistic and he expressed intent to keep on doing stuff like this. What do you thing should be done with such individuals? And it's a hospital, not actual prison. Besides:
He will remain at a secure hospital for life unless doctors deem him no longer a danger.

This. He had priors and committed the hack whilst already in trouble for them. He's been violent in custody it says and has a high chance of reoffending according to the judge.

Factoring in his autism they've essentially put him in a psyche ward indefinitely until deemed safe for release by the doctors. So it's on him now to get a 2nd chance/3rd chance.

I never said that lmao. Re-read my post.

I find the sentence too much. I never said that this crime should be forgiven LOL. And my post was about double standarts, aka my opinion, not about he is getting free pass for doing crimes.

Feel free to defend this life sentence.

In no reality should a company creating a piece of fiction containing violence and theft ever have any bearing whatsoever on a real-life sentence.


I feel like this shouldn't need to be explained, but here we are.

You sound a bit confuse about my reply. Let me help you understand:

Thats too much

- Talking about the time this boy will get in prision.
for a game that promote violence and thiefs.

- Personal opinion. Direct related about the crimes inside the game GTA5.

Hope this clear out.
 
This is fucked up

Rich peoples have fleeced billions out of peoples and they get a slap on the wrist, worst, maybe like a sanction paid off by a fraction of the money they stole.

This is not a system to be proud of.

I think they completely understood your post and you are just reiterating exactly what the point was.

Eh, I bet theres a real high chance he gets picked up by the gov to work for them (or someone else), just like what happened with people like George Hotz. We'll just never hear about it until years from now. Theres no way this kid with his extreme "talent" gets to rot away in some "hospital prison" for the rest of his days. The kid is essentially a weapon (or an extremely valuable tool) and plenty of big people want that kind of talent.

There was nothing you needed to clear up. Your opinion is insane and objectively wrong.
 
Some people make strange life decisions. Going by the article he hacked Rockstar using a rubber band and a set of match sticks, so he's clearly not incompetent when it comes to this stuff. He could probably have made a lot of money, but I guess he preferred regular meals and has a thing for men in white lab coats.

That's the clickbait version of "dude remains in a psych center until he's cleared due to his habitually criminal behavior".

He did not get life in prison.

Money impacts people's lives too, he cost people a lot of money and stated he intended to keep on doing it, so he's where he needs to be. He can get out whenever he decides to start behaving himself like the rest of us do.
