A Los Angeles grand jury indicted Chaney yesterday, with the breakdown of his wrongdoings as follows: nine counts of computer hacking, for illegally gaining access and causing damage to email systems operated by Apple and Yahoo; eight counts of aggravated identity theft for using email identities in furtherance of his computer hacking; and finally nine counts of illegal wiretapping for intercepting the private email communications of his victims (wiretapping—it's not just for phones anymore).

I normally don't give a crap about celebrities lives, but this one really got to me. What the guy did was wrong, no doubt about it... but to face up to 121 years for this crime is absolutely insane. Convicted murderers rarely face this much time in prison.
121 years for doing what the US government does on a daily basis.
Now I doubt he will get the full 121 years, but even if he pleas out, what will they settle on? 10? 20? 50? His whole life gone because he hacked a few emails and posted a celebrities nude pictures online.
Don't take a picture you wouldn't want online...

Forget the fact it happened to a celebrity for a moment. If it were your sister or your daughter, would you still sympathize with the hacker then?

Look at his list of offences. It's not just for leaking a nude photograph.
one-man hacking mastermind who's terrorized Hollywood starlets for the past year. And, no doubt, so think the slew of celebrities, like Scarlett Johansson, Vanessa Hudgens, Jessica Alba, Mila Kunis, Christina Aguilera and Miley Cyrus, who have been victimized by him.
Luckily for them, it sure sounds like the man brought down by the FBI's Operation Hackerazzi and charged with a whopping 26 counts
seemingly single-handed role in hacking into the email accounts of dozens of people, most of them celebrities
