I'm pretty sure that the Twitter hack is still fresh in our memory, this is high profile because it involves a lot of crypto exchanges like, @coinbase, @Gemini, and @binance and then celebrities, @JeffBezos, @BarackObama, @elon_musk, @JoeBiden, @BillGates, and @WarrenBuffett. And Graham Ivan Clark was charge last year and now agreed on Tuesday to be sentenced as a youthful offender to three years in prison, + three years of probation. Here are the official docs: https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/20515610-plea-agreement-acknowledgment-of-waiver-of-rights-bc-6f018852-673e-4df1-85da-4c5629856265https://www.sao13th.com/2021/03/prosecutors-reach-plea-agreement-in-case-of-twitter-hacker-graham-clark/ (please note that access might be block for some region due to security reasons). What are your thoughts of the sentencing? he has served seven months already of the three years sentenced on him.

There is nothing bad for 3 years jail term, it is not bad at all if truly found guilty, has he confirmed it true, then 3 years is good. But this does not stop other scammers and criminal hackers from doing their work to exploit money from people, this is what we should concentrate on, to never trust anyone online, use 2fa to protect our social media accounts, having the 2fa hardware or having the software on a different device, this will be enough to protect us from such hackers while we should all the time also think of other possible means to protect ourselves from online hackers and scammers generally.

That's a short term jail time for him. During the past years, when there were hackings like this but don't involve a scam, they were hiring and taking the hacker into the company that has been hacked. But in this case, it has scam involved so I do not think that even Twitter will take him.
But that doesn't change the fact that this kid has hijacked Twitter and accounts that were affected are not normal accounts but from prominent people of the society and can be classified as premium.

I think him pleading guilty really help him reduce the sentence.
And as he has served already, in just a couple of years he could be out and then probation in three years. I think that's good enough. He is still young and maybe that's one reason that the sentence is not that harsh for some of us. Institutions are trying to give him a chance to redeem himself and use his talent in good way that can help the society. Like fighting flaws in a system or try to break it, sort of becoming a white ethical hacker or something.

Bad timing After all the hacked accounts and stunts, they managed to get a total of under $200k. Just check how many idiots bit on the latest 'Tesla x10' giveaway...

I exactly think the same way with you. He is still very young and I hope that it will be a very good lesson for him. And it looks like he really has a big talent on hacking and I think the government should convince him to be a white ethical hacker and work for the sake of his country.

how much he stole by the way?
I guess 3 years is not that long though, he plead guilty so it will start counting and he can still get out with that money if its still on him. Looks like not a serious crime since the punishment is 3 years only, but I'm hoping people read this so they'll be aware of this kind of scam he made.

Jail term looks too small compared to what he did in the social media community because almost every popular person's account got hacked and used to stole money from the people with the name of giveaway. I am not sure how much money was recovered/seized from the scammer until now.

Jail term definitely looks small in comparison to several life sentences that Ross got for far less of an impact to big corporations and could of cost them billions in damage control to their reputations if this kid-hacker got away and did it again. Check out the thread above quoted about this twitter hacker who could of kept on scamming people on and on causing havok to Jack Dorsey's media platform on how they handle it's security procedures alone. One word for another to take this one's place in the future: Exploit.

There's no problem with the sentencing. But I think on top of the years in prison, the suspect should also return the entire amount scammed from all the victims down to the last centavo. That's the most important thing to me. If I were a victim, I don't care anymore about how many years the man will spend in jail. I only need that my money shall be returned.

Ah yes, that incident. Good thing I don't follow those celebrities, well not that I would be affected anyway if I even see them making those crypto-related posts. I don't have any thoughts about the dude's sentence, but instead I realize that everyone can be a victim in social media of these types of schemes regardless if one is a celebrity or just a typical/ordinary person next door. It even shows that even these accounts of a large platform can be social engineered. I am even more concerned when it comes to Facebook because there are a lot of scams popping up in random comment sections.

I personally think it's a long prison term for a guy so young but I suppose that kind of crime gets him in a different prison. 2.5 years of focused time do study or do something else would have been useful for me at that age. He might even just get a super good job once he's out. I mean with a CV like that, who won't want to hire you?

In fact, I have a different view, when a hacker commits a malicious act, he must be punished by the law. However, the government where Ivan Clark lives should have the initiative to develop its capabilities and expertise in operating the site and be used as a team in strengthening defense systems, both in the national security system and in the crypto world. because basically a hacker does this to make himself known. the point is to be recruited and nurtured and directed to the path that suits their talents. However, for all that, the criminal act must still be carried out in accordance with the applicable laws and procedures.

Probably be out by 20 years old, then 3 years of probation and not touching computers, by 23 some ABC agency hire him, the future looks bright for this "criminal", ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Throughout history, we have seen hackers being taken care of the government because they have the talent. I wouldn't be surprised in this case, we might not hear him in the next 5 years because he is working underground as a analyst already.

We are not in the place of judge and surly your decisions and discussions here, can't change anything for him. But, just as a comment I would say, 3 years is not enough for him at all. Some people were trying so hard for years to save some money and they were searching for a way to earn some profit over their money they saved after years of working hard and now he scammed the money just in a few minutes, the 3 years of jail time is not enough at all for this person.

For all those saying the prison sentence is less compared to the crime conducted by this young hacker this was the main reason. Graham Clark needs to be held accountable for that crime, and other potential scammers out there need to see the consequences. In this case, we’ve been able to deliver those consequences while recognizing that our goal with any child, whenever possible, is to have them learn their lesson without destroying their future.”Hillsborough State Attorney Andrew Warren said in a statement.Clark was 17 when he committed the crime so he was not bound to serve a minimum 10-year sentence. But had he been convicted as an adult, he would not have been able to escape the punishment. He has made more than $100k by hacking twiiter accounts of Bill gates,Elon Musk,Biden to ask users to deposit funds over Bitcoin address in order to double the funds.His lawyer claimed that he already has returned the funds to the users.So we don't need to judge the statements of high officials.

I personally think it's a long prison term for a guy so young but I suppose that kind of crime gets him in a different prison.
He scammed thousands of dollars which is why I feel that 3 years is optimal in this case along with another 3 years of probation. In my opinion, he got lucky because he was sentenced as a minor. His lawyer claimed that he already has returned the funds to the users.So we don't need to judge the statements of high officials.
He had to return the funds forcefully which is why he is still guilty and deserves being punished for 3 years. This will spread some fear among crypto scammers which is the biggest plus point.

I agree with it. The thing he has done is not negligible and I also think that it is a fair verdict for his crime. I was expecting even more than 3 years and he should be thankful for this. I hope that he won't continue like this after completing his sentence. Otherwise, he will probably be condemned in a much worse way for it.

Crime is crime no matter who is involved. What the guy committed was a crime punishable by law and the has taken its course. It will serve as a deterrent to others hackers in the future. Knowing that no body is above the law.

Does hackers usually get cut or this guy is still an amateur in the game? Am just curious why going through the trouble if the end result will be in a cell wall! I sense money was not the main goal of the hack if not getting caught should not be an option.
