Andrew ‘weev’ Auernheimer was sentenced today to 41 months in prison for figuring out a security flaw in AT&T’s website, writes Matt Brian. The “hack”, which exposed iPad users’ email addresses, involved entering serial numbers into a publicly-accessible web form. While one journalist lamented that prosecutors “admitted they didn’t understand computers”, court documents also showed that Auernheimer had entertained the idea of using the info for a phishing trip. He also said stupid things on Reddit last night to encourage maximal outcomes, as is his wont. [Verge]
