One thing though. 0day never killed nobody. Or did it? Oh wait.. tons of individuals who made a mistake in life. Chances are even because if their company would pull some money out of their pocket to meet the employee demand of sufficient living this would have never happened. Why destroy a company you love? Either way it happens. I'm just sickened how they try to punish people to the max for DDOS or hacking in general. The company makes the courts believe its murder and the courts actually believe this crap in most cases. Sure you could have lost those billions or your security of your company been at stake. Question yourself this though: If the hacker was your own son or daughter would you be so quick to tell the court that it was equal to dealing Arms to terrorist?
