That also may be so, but 35 years is fucked up for that. pretty sure child porn first time offenders is like 15 to 30 so hacking MIT for stuff that should have been free gets you more jail time then a first CP offence. OK thats fucked up
OK a reason to not like him but sending him to prison for his views that he didnt act on sounds like fasicm lol
I dont agree with his views just saying
The whole criminals getting job offers has never been true and will never be true. For many of such jobs you aren’t qualified if you have a criminal record, even small offenses disqualify you.

Well that’s definitely burying the lede from the OP.
It wasn’t the sharing part they had a problem with, it was the B&E and hacking.
Most of these guys they just offer jobs to. This was needless. No wonder China is kicking our ass on the cyber front
