But since there WAS something to break through in the system it means the "door" wasn't "unlocked".
Would be like, a padlock on a vault door though. But still a lock and if you don't have the key then it's illegal for you to open it! And the fact that he removed user accounts and just destroyed stuff he deserves prison, maybe not 70years (which it won't be) but some years atleast!
Seriously, do you even care? |

Yeah, you've got a point there. However, you have to give the guy a pat on the back because, let's be honest, is it really fair for the gov to hide stuff from us? Everything they know and do should be accessible to the public. So really, I congratulate him. |

Show me the law that says I'm not allowed to walk into an unlocked house and do as I please. It's not his fault the gov didn't secure their shit better.
I believe that would be law about tresspasing( tort law cases ), I'd research it before doing something stupid 
If the guy leaves his house open, the law doesn't apply...well at least not in Canada...We'd consider it his fault for forgetting to lock his door or having an alarm system or _something_.
No offence, but that's stupid... I mean even if you don't have the financial propositions to secure your property, it still is yours, therefor law should apply, regardless of the state in which the property/land is in... For instance, that would mean that if you secure your land with some fence lower then 2 meters, courts could say that fence isn't high enough, and adult can just jump over it

I completely agree that it's stupid. You'd be surprised to know just how useless the law is in protecting you. I was just trying to make a point about how hard they're coming down on him even though it was their fault. You really can't blame the guy; everyone's curious to know what the gov's hiding. 
P.S.> The banks own your property...they own your whole country...

Fair enough then I get your point, but still whoever will be sticking his nose in government secrets ( even if there aren't any ) you will be damn sure, he'll get punished, even if there isn't really law covering your offences, they will always find something. Point being here is, that whenever you mess with government, they will do anything to maintain their superiority

Well most governments keep secrets and cant allow certain information pass to the public. So lets say a UFO crash's in Mexico and the U.S. finds it first. If they told the public they had found it, the first question would have been where. Its obvious this would cause a bit of a problem. Besides, the U.S.'s FBI commits thousands of criminal acts every year. Many in the U.S. wouldn't care as its there government but other countries might. Many governments consider any public knowledge will be known by there enemy's so a certain amount of information needs to be kept private.
