Someone was prosecuted for hacking bc they hit F12. Lmao, never gonna get over that.
I know that story, sad and funny altogether: https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2021/12/missouri-planned-to-thank-security-journalist-before-governor-called-him-a-hacker/
Ah, looks like he was never prosecuted after all, but the whole situation was still a horrible mess.
Thats an older source, saw some newer on reddit last week. Try to find it. But nothing happened to our hacking hero xD
