You're right. The hacker discussion is about all kinds of crime, including murder, but the article is about minor incidents.
"There was some initial internal resistance, but eventually Quinn and his staff came up with general parameters: they would not erase names in cases of violence, sex offenses, crimes against children or corruption."
It's a bit odd, because newspapers rarely report on minor crimes, and when they do they don't put the names of the guilty in print.
- krapp 2y agoIt depends on where you are, but where I am local papers report on minor crimes, with names, all the time. And even if they no longer do, archives may still exist. Which as the article states is a problem when employers will search those archives and refuse to hire for even minor offenses, regardless of context.
