Journalist Matthew Keys sentenced to 2 years in hacking case

  So... basically because anonymous was involved in some fashion they threw the book at him? 2 years in PRISON for this seems MORE than a little silly. What do you get for graffiti? Because this is just slightly less offensive than that. A spray painted billboard can stay up for weeks before someone fixes it.

    When a very active graffiti writer sentenced in the U.S. it is often pretty extreme as well. Here's an example that comes to mind: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MFONE https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MFONE

      Sharing info that directly leads to defacement of a website does not nearly equate to painting all over various surfaces over the course of multiple years.

  I follow Keys on Twitter. He has been surprisingly positive since he was arrested (and through subsequent court dates). I hope he has a bright future.
