The 18-year-old Lapsus$ hacker who played a critical role in leaking Grand Theft Auto VI footage has been sentenced to life inside a hospital prison, according to a report from the BBC. A British judge ruled on Thursday that Arion Kurtaj is a high risk to the public because he still wants to commit cybercrimes.
In August, a London jury found that Kurtaj carried out cyberattacks against GTA VI developer Rockstar Games and other companies, including Uber and Nvidia. However, since Kurtaj has autism and was deemed unfit to stand trial, the jury was asked to determine whether he committed the acts in question, not whether he did so with criminal intent.
Which is why it’s unfortunate to say that people should do the same for Bathesda, it being a Microsoft company now. Doesn’t hurt to wait a few weeks; Who knows, you may even run into a ‘buff female’ or something who could buy the game for you. (: smile
Yeah Bethesda has definitely fallen into the “do not preorder or buy on release” category. I was already rather sour on them after Fallout 4 got rid of my favorite parts of 3 and NV. Starfield just confirms it.
