no jail? huh?

okay.. I can understand the judiciary not understanding the total costs and effect of the DDoS -

but surely having 1000 credit card numbers on him is a major thing.... and if that wasn't a problem

(because it would have meant jail time for others) then those nigh-on 1000 images of kiddies would have put ANYONE else behind bars. so, how the f%^K did their lawyer pull off 240 hours service??
