It wasn't funny that they found out about the boy's web page because their computer system was so slow. That's going to really count against the kid. He was actually succeeding in intentionally slowing their computer system.

I havent seen any proof that he slowed the computer down and actully proved that it would take 20,000 people to fill up a T1 using the F5 method.

I don't know what your standard of proof is, but the school official in the video said that they were having a problem with network slowness and in an attempt to figure out what was causing the slowness they identified the boy's web page. Maybe they were mistaken, but maybe the boy has a lot of friends and maybe the school has something less than a T1.
