If the FBI find any evidence on his hard drives leading to his part in the hack, he can face up to a $250,000 fine and a maximum of a 20 year imprisonment for the 2008 attacks.
The 2008 attacks followed by numerous others had cost the Japanese company millions of dollars in damage, as well as effecting other services and more than 70 million users at the time.
Todd was accused of the 2008 sony attacks by the hacking-collective known as KCUF. However, without his computers, the FBI cannot prove his assistance in the hack.
So what does NGU think? Are these punishments too harsh for one guy? Or do you think Todd deserves it?
