The 18-year-old Lapsus$ hacker who played a critical role in leaking Grand Theft Auto VI footage has been sentenced to life inside a hospital prison, according to a report from the BBC. A British judge ruled on Thursday that Arion Kurtaj is a high risk to the public because he still wants to commit cybercrimes.
In August, a London jury found that Kurtaj carried out cyberattacks against GTA VI developer Rockstar Games and other companies, including Uber and Nvidia. However, since Kurtaj has autism and was deemed unfit to stand trial, the jury was asked to determine whether he committed the acts in question, not whether he did so with criminal intent.
I’d recommend that you both behave with more civility.
User: I guarantee abuse is happening
Me: Bullshit, there’s no evidence for that
User: Bootlicker!
User2: Both of you behave
Guess Im a bootlicker who needs to behave. Sorry for having an opinion and keeping to the facts. My bad bro. I won’t ever speak my mind again I’ve learned my lesson
The moderation team isn’t here to pick a side. We’re here to make sure fights (like this one) don’t break out. You are both being combative. I don’t mind discourse happening, but keep it civil is the only request. If you must be combative, move it to DMs
Which is why you removed my comment. You picked a side by removing my side from being able to speak. Hey they said they personally guarantee abuse is happening. There is no evidence to that from the article or anywhere. You have now erased that and the only conversation now is theirs. You picked a side.
I removed both offending (read: rule breaking) comments. Not just yours. The modlogs are free to view by everybody.
You never removed the one that is lying about abuse that never happened. You only removed mine where I pointed out there was no evidence. The reason given : “trolling”. So it’s trolling now to stick to the facts?
I removed rule breaking comments. If you can point to a rule that was broken with their comment, please report it. You can contest their comment, but all I ask is you do it in with some civility. I’m not saying you can’t argue, but don’t troll, bash, name call, or other things that are explicitly laid out in the rules.
I see, so if I state something as fact even though it isn’t, in the “news” community of all places, that’s not considered rule breaking? But my comment that pointed out that lie is infact rule breaking because I didn’t do it in a friendlier manner. Is that correct?
Rather than arguing, I have requested that other moderators intervene, so there no semblance of me being heavy-handed in my actions regarding this. I have explained the rules, and the justifications of actions taken.
From the modlog (trolling emphasized):
