    If I remember correctly, it wasn’t even illegal since these scientific articles should have been public to begin with because they used public funds.

      That may be so, but IIRC he was charged with breaking into MIT’s networking room and illegally tapping into their network to get the articles:

        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

        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

            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.

              I mean thousands of war criminals were offered jobs after ww2 so I doubt they would care about a little red tape just hire them into the black no one needs to know
