Yep. Teenagers who commit benign hacks for fun get more time than murderers. People's lives get ruined for effectively the digital form of trespass. It's pretty fucked up.

Do you have a source for people getting more time than murderers for "effectively the digital form of trespass". I agree that some parts of the legal system do not work very well, but I think that's a big exaggeration.
