This kid deserves a 7-8 digits salary as a pentester, not prison; plenty of pentesting companies would hire him in a heartbeat.

You're forgetting a vitally important part of being a pentester.

Namely that they need to be trusted not to leak billions of dollars worth of trade secrets.

This kid is a prodigy as a black hat, but he'd be an embarrassment as a pentester.

I agree with you in principle, you are definitely objectively correct, however people can redeem themselves.

To name two:

  • Mitnick (RIP) started as a black hat
  • Gollumfun started as a twisted criminal

I'm listening to an interview with Gollumfun as I'm reading this, what are the chances?

Haha I’m glad that he switched sides honestly, but after listening him talk about his childhood in an interview I’m not even surprised that he did what he did
