So long as we're talking about white supremacists and hacking, I remember when a "white supremacist" hacker weev was convicted and sentenced to 41 months in federal prison for reading a few thousand sequential ids from an AT&T webpage. He reported the vulnerability to AT&T and showed a limited example to a journalist.

This seems far worse - so of course we can expect criminal prosecution of these "researchers"?



Why'd you put "white supremacist" in quotes? He's a proud neo nazi.


Because I don't know much else about him apart from that story and I don't trust the media when they call people white supremacists. I intend the quotes to indicate that people call him a white supremacist, not that I don't.
