He did this while out on bail for multiple other hacks and openly refuses to stop saying he'll do it again as soon as he's able...

But maybe 5-10 years from now he's not as obsessed with hacking and is able to be released with conditions.

The article is pretty informative

Thanks for the explanation, I kind of skimmed the article. The verge always throws pop-ups and ads everywhere when I'm on my phone so I don't really spend long whenever an article is linked.

I actually use Firefox with ublock but for some reason, certain websites just kind of half-work. Fanbase wiki pages are basically one centimeter of readable space between ads.

Does the job 97% of the time though. Guess I'll have to upgrade or double up at least.

uBlock is great, just make sure to select and update filters lists.

To be fair though the article kind of sucks.

He's not being held in a hospital for life, he's being held indefinitely. Which is absolutely the correct decision considering his abilities and record of hacks
