Weev sentenced

2013-03-18 17:39:21.079791+01 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

Andrew 'weev' Auernheimer sentenced to 41 months for exploiting AT&T iPad security flaw.

Note that the "security flaw" in question was incrementing a counter on the end of a URL. Why hasn't there been a massive class-action lawsuit against AT&T for incompetence here?
