The Cal State Fullerton student was arrested Monday on federal charges that he illegally modified Xbox, Playstation, Wii and other video game consoles to enable the machines to play pirated video games.
Crippen, 27, of Anaheim, was taken into custody Monday morning by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents. The arrest follows his indictment by a federal grand jury on two counts of violating the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.
Specifically, the college student is accused of modifying for personal financial gain technology affecting control or access to a copyrighted work, according to an ICE statement.
Each criminal count carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison.

Ouch. That's never happened in Vancouver and we probably have one of the highest number of computer hackers in the world.

The kid should've brought a gun and go rob a bank instead...he would probably end up serving less time when he is caught..
such law and justice system is just bullshit

thats not hacking, its cheating. hacking actually requires skill and technical knowledge. installing aimbot is something 99% of people who own a pc can do.

There actually was this Chinese guy that lived near the 29th Nanaimo Skytrain station that got busted years back for modding peoples video games and all that. I think his name was Jason but I dont remember.

yeah, i got my PS and PS2 modded by him and then heard the same story. i think he tried to start a satellite receiver shop on kingsway or something? i think that's why he got busted.
anyways, a couple of years ago, i found a brand new HD PVR on Craigslist and it turned out to be him selling it (different house).

Thats called irony.
I got a hacked bell receiver that served me well, until it broke.
