Adware hacker sentenced to over 4 1/2 years in prison
From the AP - “Authorities said he received more than $107,000 for downloading adware (software that can track a user’s Internet browsing habits and deliver pop-up ads) onto infected computers and selling access to hackers and spammers.”
I haven’t been following this story, but it appears he was also involved in for-hire DDoSing.

This kind of stuff amazes me. I mean this guy is doing wrong, no doubt, but he gets 4 1/2 years in prison and OJ gets off clean. This happens all the time, you’ll see someone getting off for rape, murder, armed robbery, but people like this who yes should be punished, get 4 years in prison. Something is definitely wrong with this picture.
