      The kid also stole 14m dollars and was already caught for his previous hacks into other companies.

      I’m not sure what you’re getting at. He broke the law, the government investigates and enforces the law.

      What do you expect to happen? Should the government not investigate crimes against corporations? Should corporations be required to pay for the government investigation into a crime perpetrated against them?

      Seems like pretty quickly the governments would only be incentivized to investigate financial crimes against corporations.

      Seems like a worse pay-to-play scheme than the alleged thing you’re mad about.
