Jonathan James was known as “c0mrade” on the Internet. What is his
ticket to fame? He was convicted and sent to prison for hacking in the
United States–all while he was still a minor. At only fifteen years of
age, he managed to hack into a number of networks, including those
belonging to Bell South, Miami-Dade, the U.S. Department of Defense, and
NASA.
Yes, James hacked into NASA’s network and downloaded enough source
code to learn how the International Space Station worked. The total
value of the downloaded assets equaled $1.7 million. To add insult to
injury, NASA had to shut down their network for three whole weeks while
they investigated the breach, which cost them $41,000.
