Not sure if this is a sign of how great Irish universities are or how shít the FBI is.

How about instead of extraditing him, the US gives the guy a working visa?

Another stupid kid has his life destroyed and for what. I suppose if they do cause damage to system and cost a business or a government millions, they really can't get away with that.

If the guy actually was a top hacker, there wouldn't be a thread on Boards.ie about him right now.

We don't deport our own citizens.
We do happily however extradite them to other juristicions such the USA, which one would guess is a possible ,if not likely outcome in this case.

He might be, the Americans can put a lot of pressure on our government and if not the legal case will still cost millions.

Besides people are getting pissed of with hackers, they are no longer seen as the cool heros fighting the power, but stupid spotty kids vandalizing systems, putting viruses out there, and pulling themselves silly to internet porn everytime their ma goes shopping.

BS. Look at Sean Garland. He wasnt extradited and what he allegedly did to the "US Economy" was alot worse than what this fella above did.
