I did the same shit as a teenager, big fucking whoop. How about we focus on the Nazi part of this asshole.
While I wholeheartedly agree this is "meh" compared to everything else, this isn't nothing.
If you were to try to get a job with even basic security clearance for a site in the US, and it came up that you were hacking at 19 years old, you would not move forward.
It's a fact-based merit that under normal circumstances would result in termination if it was found to have not been disclosed previously. So pointing it out is still important.
All that being said, disclosure is the key. If it was disclosed, it's a judgment call, and, well...
