No remorse, in fact he actively wants to do it again as soon as he’s able, check.
I sincerely hope he gets the help he needs, but unless and until a qualified medical professional personally guarantees he won’t regress, it would be downright irresponsible to allow this kid to continue doing what he does.
It seems like people aren’t reading the article and just downvoting.
So here’s another snippet from the article which shows you the kid needs serious help:
Kurtaj leaked 90 videos of GTA VI gameplay footage last September while out on bail for hacking Nvidia and British telecom provider BT / EE. Although he stayed at a hotel under police protection during this time, Kurtaj still managed to carry out an attack on Rockstar Games by using the room’s included Amazon Fire Stick and a “newly purchased smart phone, keyboard and mouse,” according to a separate BBC report. Kurtaj was arrested for the final time following the incident.
Like come on man, how many chances is enough? If there’s no real consequences for people’s actions, they just do whatever they please. Actions have consequences.
You quoted the least compelling part of the article. Literally who cares about Rockstar, Nvidia, and BT?
The only part that might require hospitalization/lockup IMO might be this:
During Thursday’s hearing, the court heard Kurtaj “had been violent while in custody with dozens of reports of injury or property damage,” the BBC reports. A mental health assessment also found that Kurtaj “continued to express the intent to return to cybercrime as soon as possible.” He’s required to stay in the hospital prison for life unless doctors determine that he’s no longer a danger.

But it’s vague af so who knows.
So laws only apply if they affect people or companies you care about? Interesting.
Did you think this discussion was about the legality of the sentence?
The prevailing wisdom on lemmy seems that it’s fair game apparently as long as the targets are corporations
