thats how it was reported here...

also, that doesnt make it a lie, it makes it only true if the UK citizen is tried by the UK legal system.

Actually, that's still a lie.

Because he broke into 97 computers.

And the 6 month sentence is only for one hacking attempt.

 

Additionally the UK has no right to try someone for a lesser crime when a more serious crime was committed by the act elsewhere.

more serious crime was still commited in the UK by a UK citizen though, so whats your point?

and the UK isnt responsible for the security of US computer systems...turn this around and FUCK ALL would happen, the US would block any attempt at extradition or harsher sentencing and you know it...

No... we wouldn't actually.  Once we found someone was guilty of the crime, we would send them over.

why do I find that so hard to believe?

I would also argue that the UK should refuse to extradite its citizens to any nation that practices the death penalty on principle, that includes guess who? the US.

See Thanos Papalexis.  Person charged with murder in the UK.  The US extradited him.

Also, you think people should refuse to extradite it's citizens to any nation that practices the death penalty... even in cases where the death penalty isn't involved?

Seriously?
