THIS TEENAGE HACKER BECAME A LEGEND ATTACKING COMPANIES. THEN HIS RIVALS ATTACKED HIM

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Arion Kurtaj is a hacker accused of breaking into Uber and stealing software and videos from Rockstar Games. He was given an indefinite hospital order for his crimes, confined to a secure mental health ward until doctors and UK officials decide he is no longer a danger to the public. His lawyers are seeking an appeal, arguing that evidence fails to prove Kurtaj committed many of the offenses he is accused of or was the central player. This article tells the story of Kurtaj's life. Kurtaj lived a very empty offline life with all sorts of difficulties, challenges, and limitations, but online, he was a bit of a superhero.
