I'm subscribed to his channel because some of his reviews on the gaming world are hilarious. His video was the first I'd heard of it...

It's human nature to want to explore. To find your line and go beyond it. The only limit, is the one you set yourself.

Good to be far away from USA in Austria where people just keep their daughters / kidnapped women in cellars for number of years and have grandkids with them.

But at least they don't make threats on intertubez so everybody just chill da frakk down.

People do that here too; they just aren't as good at building dungeons. That thing was really quite well engineered.

I dunno, something about the stories that are coming out of the USA are constantly reminding my of George Orwell's nineteen eight four I mean seriously this person who tracked the kids IP was praised instead of jailed for Hacking......isnt Hacking a cyber-crime?

I thought sarcasm was just part of being a troll?

Point 1: feel lucky to not be 'murican

Point 2: IMO, one of the tasks of Justice is to protect the innocent, even if they are stupid, and/or specially when they are stupid. I wonder how putting that boy in a prison full of convicted criminals is going to improve anything for him or the society.

Point 3: the woman who denounced him really needs to get some common sense and stop spreading her stupid around.

As much as the trend scares me, it's not a US thing. The UK in particular has really started to crack down on things they consider hate speech.

Side note: Looking up IPs is far from illegal or hacking (there are in fact public registrars like http://whois.net/ ). It's more likely that he was found via social networking or some online persona, which again, is pretty mundane.

The funny thing about this is the poster one or two above you who has a George Orwell quote in his sig yet seems to be an advocate for Orwellian practices.

League used to leak them; dunno if it still does.

News story doesn't mention anything about finding him via IP though.
