Looks like someone needs to review their security policies. Why do these government sites keep getting hacked? Looks like someone needs to review their security policies.

The terrorism spin is bullshit though and I wish they would stop pulling it. The guy didn't cause any great damage nor cause a state of national security alert. Slap his wrists and move on, stop trying to make a case out of him. Well although the crime was committed in the UK the victim was not on UK soil thus the crime is actually a cross-borders affair.

However, the House of Lords may know all too well where their bread is buttered. Yes, McKinnon should stand trial, but not held to the fire, quite literally, by the Spanish Inquisition like conditions that the "Terrorism Act" allows. Guantanamo torture bay they should call it. The politics of fear must stop somewhere. Maybe the UK can muster the bollocks to do it. The US sure can't.

It's nice to see that someone has the balls to actually give Gary a fair chance of not heading towards Cuba and spend the rest of his life wearing orange jumpsuits Finally we see some logic being applied to this case.
