The catch all title hacking...
Hacking my arse, he, at best, guessed a password by using some web2.0 diarrhea site. The numpty whos email be broke into no doubt had shitty weak passwords, like a birthday or the name of the kids/world/dog.
I consider that part of the crime, lax security on the part of the "hacked" party. Give that dick 100 hours CS for not understanding the importance of a secure password when employed that high up and the "hacker" 500 hours picking dog shit up or cleaning litter up from the olympics. Should keep him occupied.
However, sending thousands of nuisance calls i consider a far more serious bit of deviant behaviour. I dont know what his solicitor did when he was a kid but i never put real peoples lives in real danger...Only my own...
