Throw him in jail for 10 yrs. Civil judgments against him did nothing. Maybe jail can stop him.

Psh. Knowing our system, he'll get a "don't touch a computer for 5 years, pay a $1 million dollar fine, and promise you'll behave in the future" sentence.

Basing that theory on Mitnick, I see. Mitnick's only crime was breaking into unsecured servers and humiliating the "computer security" employees of deep pocketed corporations. He actually did the Internet a favor by exposing primary weaknesses, but I would never put Mitnick in the same category as a spammer or ascribe the same sentence to them. They are in an entire class by themselves and completely useless to anyone. Spammers are the true nuisances who should be punished excessively, not people like Mitnick.

Nope. I'm basing my theory on the fact that our judges are all old and have no idea of how a computer works, what spam is, or anything.

Why send him to jail? He is just a guy with the capitalist drive to make money. How dare government stop someone from making money?

You forgot theft (computer manuals) and possession of illegal equipment.

While he might have done the world a favor, he went about it the wrong way.

I don't think dumpster diving and social engineering constitute theft. I was not aware one could illegally possess equipment purchased legally. There is a lot of communication gear for sale on ebay, I believe the gear Mitnick had was made illegal after he was kidnapped by the FBI.

If I am wrong please let me know.

He "socially engineered" his way into a few companies and physically took manuals.

Actually, having had cases in the federal courts in both Seattle (where this guy is) and Tacoma, the courts are extraordinarily tech forward and the judges and staff extremely competent about technology. I doubt the judge in Seattle will have a difficult time understanding these issues.
