I guess if you don't care about health care, women's rights, equality under the law, etc, then yeah, I guess you wouldn't see any difference between the candidates.
Interfering with the 911 system can kill people. It's a really, really bad thing to do. He doesn't have to fry but he does need a lot more than a stern talking to.
Having him understand now that there are consequences to actions will save his life. A slap on the wrist combined with lots of "wow, how clever" attention means he'll do it again
I suppose to make your comparison completely accurate to what's going on, said person would have had to mix a few chemicals together just to SEE them blow up, but after finding something that would definitely blow up, he bottled a few samples of it. Then carried it out in public to show his friends, only to accidentally let it fly from his hands as he was waving it around and it found itself at the base of a police station where it blew up.
Here's the detail nobody seemed to ask. Why did he create a version of his little script that targeted 911 in the first place? If he was never going to do anything more nefarious than try to hit his "friends" with a pop up generator, why'd he need to have the other versions created and saved - apparently in the same folders if he "accidentally" picked the wrong one.
Most kids manage to live their lives just fine without managing to DDoS important services. Those kids have enough god damned common sense not to even START in on this shit.
Yep... the whole "gee I never intended to do this" thing seems pretty unlikely.
Sure... except when a foreign power uses dirty tricks to try to control the outcome of an election. Then the issue is less who said what to whom in some email and whether a country can afford to have its enemies pick its leaders.
Not sure how this got modded "troll"... as I'm just pointing out that letting your enemies pick your leaders is a bad idea.
Except that argument is such a bad one. The space program is not the best way to preserve the human race. Repeat, if you are worried about preserving the human race, space is not the way to do it.
So if it's ok for the Russians to manipulate a US election, I assume you are ok with the CIA meddling with foreign countries to put leaders into power. Right?

Actually, no, interfering with communications is not protected by the First Amendment, and the government of the United States is sworn to protect the Constitution. People carrying guns haven't shown any vested interest in protecting freedom.
Actually, that's what makes me think he is on drugs. It's exactly what he would consider to be great reverse psych... And he certainly acts like he's on drugs.

Nice try, Adolph. Just like how the Jews were responsible for Holocaust. The same Holocaust that you deny.
Right... as we orbit Jupiter, explore Pluto, rove Mars, and develop new capacity to send humans into space, we've "taken a back seat".
Duh.
It will be renamed the Vladimir Putin Mother Russia telescope. And it will be pointed at earth.
Yeah i guess non-consensual grabbing women by their pussy isn't considered rape... or wait, actually, I'm pretty sure it is.

It always amuses me how slashdotters have to go from one extreme to another. There are punishments between "scott free" and "hanging by his balls".
Is that you Steve?
He's probably a Linux hacker. This domestic terrorism must be dealt with in the harshest way possible.
Make him use a Linux desktop?
Wow, that's harsh... can't we just put him in jail?

Well played Boris. Between you and agent Trumpsky we'll have the Americans so convinced their freedom is worthless that we can easily take over.

Or, if you are a shill for Russia, deflect blame once Russia has been identified.

Jeez I wish I had the points to mod the parent up. Exactly right.
When you are in a dictatorship (say, Russia), trust me, you'll know it.
Probably has enough nukes.

Good job Boris... keep it up.
Uh, he's feeding stuff hacked by the FSB to wikileaks... was that too hard to figure out? Funny how there aren't any hacks of Trump... just Clinton.
For the same reason that people want a return on any investment. It's not so unreasonable.
