16-Year-Old Boy Who Hacked Apple’s Private Systems Gets No Jail Time

Australian teenager pleaded guilty to hacking into Apple’s servers multiple times over several months. The 19-year-old hacker, who was 16 at the time of committing the crime, will not serve time in prison. He was given eight-month probation, though the magistrate made him understand how serious his offense was. Apple reportedly detected the intrusion and blocked his access in November 2016, but the teenager regained access last year in April. The young hacker has since been accepted into university to study criminology and cyber safety.
