Court finds two teenagers with autism guilty of leaking GTA 6 content
Crackers from the Lapsus$ group found guilty of hacker attacks by a British court.
18-year-old Arion Kurtage and his unnamed 17-year-old partner (name not disclosed due to his minority) were involved in hacking major IT companies, including Rockstar Games. It is noteworthy that both attackers are autistic. The leak of GTA 6 data and code was the most daring episode of their hacking activity, which was told in court. Courtage carried out the break-in after he was released on bail for the second time and denied access to the Internet. However, Courtage did not sit back and contacted his colleagues through the Amazon Fire Stick set-top box.
The court said that the hackers did not have a clear goal of making money, but sometimes they still extorted money. In some cases, they just wanted to have some fun.
Courtage and his partner are taken into custody. The verdict will be delivered later.
