Nobody's yet proposed any concrete sentencing, and that is something the courts have a lot of leeway in, especially with 12 year olds.
Given reasonable handling (i.e. no actual prison sentences): yes, it does indeed sound like a net positive on society if a bunch of 12 year-olds learns to know better that stupid shit can have real, serious consequences.
- gerland 7y agoOr society can learn that a 12yo has a very poor judgement and treat seriously the thing that actually matters - that most people have no knowledge or common sense with regards to security. If a 12yo can distrupt your corporate meeting, then IMHO the problem is not that underage kids are prone to stupid pranks. This is nothing else than an outlash by people who feel humiliated. Maybe, just maybe, they should feels stupid for a bit.
