Excuse me warden, I don't feel like my sentence is long enough. I'm going to go ahead and hack into the prison system so you can give me more time. Actually, don't worry about giving me more time, I'll just add it myself while I'm in there.

Nicholas Webber, 21, jailed for five years in 2011 for masterminding a multi-million-pound internet crime site, triggered the security scare during a lesson. It is understood his actions caused ‘major panic’ but it is not clear what, if anything, he managed to access.
 
Big issue here, Western Governments jail people who show some skill at compromising systems. The Chinese not only condone it, they recruit for it and they help develop them. They are like a MLB team with a thriving farm system building its way to a dynasty.

/s I for one welcome our new Chinese Overlords....
 
He must like prison. I wonder how long his extended stay would be.
 
masterminding of multi-million-pound internet crime and only for five years.
