Teen GTA VI hacker sentenced to life in a secure hospital
theverge.com
The 18-year-old Lapsus$ hacker who played a critical role in leaking Grand Theft Auto VI footage has been sentenced to life inside a hospital prison, according to a report from the BBC. A British judge ruled on Thursday that Arion Kurtaj is a high risk to the public because he still wants to commit cybercrimes.
In August, a London jury found that Kurtaj carried out cyberattacks against GTA VI developer Rockstar Games and other companies, including Uber and Nvidia. However, since Kurtaj has autism and was deemed unfit to stand trial, the jury was asked to determine whether he committed the acts in question, not whether he did so with criminal intent.

First off: it’s a hospital until he’s fit to stand trial. Same for the crazy serial killers who can’t comprehend that what they do is wrong.
Second: the dude is autistic and violent without his connection to the internet. He need professional help.
Third: respect where it is due, he was already banned from having a computer, hacked rockstar with a phone and a fire tv stick
The NSA is about to buy him his freedom...
he was violent while in custody. The article doesn't say anything about any other violence. I think its fair that he was violent towards the people who were violating his rights
