That stupid moron should have been using government systems not "Yahoo." He used password recovery- and thats to the fault of Yahoo. It was a loophole, and 5 years in Prison for exploiting a problem in yahoo is inappropriate. This is sad… he didn't "hack" anything.

This adult that perpetrated this crime of illegal email access is subject to prosecution to the fullest extent of the law. For premeditation and the commission of a criminal offense using the Internet and computers. Punishment should be at least 5 years in federal prison. This should serve to discourage attacks via computer hacking, which may lead to greater offenses of public endangerment. A 20-year-old is not a kid.

Obvious homonyms give the wrong meaning to a word, and cause the reader a mental shock when they occur.
