What do you want to bet he gets hired by Eset, or Norton, or the FBI, to help them stop other hackers from doing what he did?

Possibly, but I would hope they wouldn't reward him (and he seems to be a idiot in other ways). That sends a really bad message. Not to mention, what he and his dopey friend did isn't really that *special*. Botnets are a dime a dozen.

His parents looked on.

Too bad they didn't look on a little sooner to see what junior was up to.

It would be the equivalent of hiring a bank robber as a security specialist.

That's happened before and the person has been very good at helping those he harmed. Read Catch Me If You Can. It's a true story.
