Default Hacker, 21, Gets Almost 5 Years in Prison.

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- A 21-year-old computer whiz was sentenced to nearly five years in federal prison for taking control of 400,000 Internet-connected computers and renting access to them to spammers and fellow hackers.

He has made a small business out of it by selling access to spammers, but who is going to admire his business mind in such young age? :eek:
