I saw this and thought of that WiFi hacking thread we had a few months back.

Some kids got the Mitnick and ended up with 9 YEARS IN PRISON FOR
HACKING!!!!!

Yes, they were doing something stupid. Yes, they shouldn't have done
what they did. But 9 years? Maybe it's just me, but that seems like a
seriously harsh sentence for a non-violent crime.
