While 170 years is crazy, the penalty does need to be something substantial imo.
15-20 years IMO.
This hacking crap, virus/worm crap just does not affect one person but truly affects us all...and that all as we continue this full court press towards globalization only gets bigger.
Imagine the amount of money that masterblaster worm cost businesses and individuals in America alone. Now multiply that across the world with every other user affected by it.
Not only did it cost those with infected systems, but it cost anyone and everyone doing business on the net, which then in turn *think trickle down* affected anyone and everyone those on the net do business with that aren't on the net.
These little punk ass kids need to learn that they just can't do something and end up costing peopl worldwide millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars without there being dire consequences.
