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.

      Umm… look the fuck around? All cops are bastards. Mental health facilities aren’t better. I was a kid in a couple, and worked at one myself. There are good staff, yeah, but there’s also a 99% fucking chance that every kid will encounter a bad one. And there’s a lot of bad ones. If youre lucky theyre lazy and just neglect you. Others have little patience and are likely to yell and chastise during an incident. They’ll do vindictive little things to mentally ill children because theyve had to write an incident report. They’ll taunt and goad kids into being aggressive. They’ll ABSOLUTELY make all kinds of disparaging comments about the kids.

      I have seen it all, far too often. Its absolutely rampant.

        So zero evidence the cops and guards in this case did anything wrong. Thanks for being honest about lying =)

          Going to be honest, I think you need to go back to reddit.

          None of what you say seems to be in good faith whereas the person you’re replying to is at least giving personal experiences from both being a kid in that system and having worked in it as an adult.

          Downvote haraas and insult me all you want, won’t change the fact that you aren’t contributing to a better community or dialogue.

            Or else what? You’ll do something to me? You’ll downvote me?

              I’m not going to do anything, I’m just making a suggestion based on your overly aggressive and hostile comments.

              I would say it’s rather telling that you just assume someone is going to “do something to you” when they give you a suggestion though.

              Might be worth taking a step back from the Internet and figuring out what’s causing you to be such an angry person. Might even help lower your blood pressure.

                Interesting, because that’s exactly what you did.

              I’d recommend that you both behave with more civility.

                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.
