Default Self-taught 18 yearold hacker from New Zealand
I found it funny how someone so young and from such a unknown and small country could cause so much damage.
The town Whitianga isn't far from where I live.

Unknown country? I wouldn't say that... Anyway, I reckon it's due more to the fact that he said he was bullied at school more than anything....

he probably felt bad for hacking networks

and to think the guy is so young with no training at all

Walker admitted that although he knew what he was doing was illegal, he had not considered it to be criminal.

Well to be honest, it is hard to believe you can go to jail for hacking... You're not moving from your seat, just making codes and that can get you to jail.

It's hard to believe...

Well, most Australian's remind us of how "better" they are.

Calling us "sheep shaggers" every chance they get!
