But unless they can get internet in jail, 18 months away from 4chan will likely cost them YEARS in catching up.

Yep skills wise they are as good as dead besides 18 months will give them a new skillset

They had no skills. That is why there was a crackdown on it. It was too easy.

The really arent hackers in the truest sense.

What is a hacker in the truest sense, whatever these people were they are a menace, this is a form of terrorism, a form of criminal activity

The tuest sense is the kind that can break codes without using a program they buy over the internet. The ones that create the holes and exploit them for their own use. This bunch just bought something and used it without full knowlage of how it worked. No different then buying any other software except this wasnt the good kind.

so the true hackers are the ones who sold them the software

Yes the ones that created it and found whatever exploit. Those are the true and dangerous hackers.

it's no fun any more

Its easy to get the low level evildoers, but getting the ones who reek havoc with their high level lucrative criminal enterprises are a lot harder.

but NSA spies on everyone, must be a lot of evidence out there

Make Neutering a punishment for hacking... bet it stops pretty quick.

Should make it a punishment for most sex crimes too.

I think that has been tried, doesn't stop them because the problem is in their head, no take hackers and put them to use spying on the other side and the other scumbags, I think they should all be put on a remote island together

Maybe they will be like Australia, and rise to be the perfect utopia, from the ashes criminality.

No we have a particular aversion to scumbags I meant Kergeulan or Heard somewhere remote and cold, but I think we should send them to you, you seem to be a haven for them

But you are so much more experienced with rehabbing criminals and getting GREAT results.

No we only rehab ordinary criminals scumbags require the special talents found only in large prision systems with diverse populations
