The prosecutors said that Anonymous wouldnt have hacked LA Times if Keys had not supplied them with login credentials.
It is highly unlikely the Keys may actually be sentenced to 25 years in prison.
We have no intention of seeking 25 years, Lauren Horwood, the Public Information Officer at the U.S.
Attorneys Office for the Eastern District of California, told The Daily Beast.
The sentencing that were going to ask the judge for will be less than five years.
Based on the actual facts, the LA Times hacking would have cost peanuts to its owners.
Surprisingly $5000 is what CFAA laws stipulate to be tried under it.
May be it is time to relook into those big tomes of law.
