Article here. Chap with Aspergers is to be extradited for hacking into US Government/Military computers. Many people are up in arms about this and I am not sure what the main problem is. Is it:
- That he shouldn't be extradited because he has Aspergers?
- That he didn't really commit a crime?
- That he didn't commit a crime in the US so why extradite him? I wonder if international laws are going to have to adapt to the Internet Age where locations can be remote from the crime.
- That apparently the extradition agreement between the US is one sided (I don't know enough about it).
- That he was just 'harmlessly' looking for UFO stuff, so intent was not malicious.
I would appreciate someone explaining the situation to me because as far as I can see the guy hacked in to Government classified files in the US which is illegal. Presumably his Aspergers doesn't mean he cannot understand right and wrong, and the fact that he was just a 'UFO hunter' is neither here or there, he broke the law. I'm not sure what to think?
