Complete clickbait, and inaccurate. One could just as well say a bank robber was arrested for opening the door, because that was the first step in robbing the bank. What's worst about the idea that he was "arrested for pressing F12" is that the thing he was arrested for (finding and then reporting a bug) is completely ridiculous. Presumably they actually arrested him for utilizing the bug to buy a ticket at a huge discount ("stealing" a ticket), but of course he did it only to see if it were possible and then reported it.

Yes, he reportedly lives in a different part of the country where the ticket can actually be used.

Clickbait, yes. But it is kinda like ‘Hungarian bank robber arrested for opening the bank safe with hair pin’ Gives the message to the target audience perfectly.
