Although he stayed at a hotel under police protection during this time, Kurtaj still managed to carry out an attack on Rockstar Games by using the room’s included Amazon Fire Stick and a “newly purchased smart phone, keyboard and mouse,” according to a separate BBC report.

Looks like they should hire him no?

5 millions loss for rockstar games, like is it even a lot for them?

They basically deemed him too autistic to be held responsible for his own actions. I am all for rehabilitation and channeling skills in good ways but you also need to trust them to act in their own interest which this guy don't seem capable of.

Yeah I think I meant something like supervising him and seeing how he's exploiting breach in order to patch it. But that doesn't look as realistic now as it was in my head, who would hire him actually, you don't know what would be his next target
