Wasn't he the guy that used tar for the leaked folder of data, but the tar included his user folder which contained his legal name?
$ tar cvf /var/www/html/vastaamo/vastaamo.tar . -C /var/www/html/vastaamo --exclude vastaamo.tar
-C, --directory=DIR
Change to DIR before performing any operations. This
option is order-sensitive, i.e. it affects all options
that follow.whoopsie :D
The results are what you might expect if you decided to just use dailymail.co.uk as a source, similar to the creator of malicious trojan virus Python being arrested https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2124114/Computer-ha...

Says the guy that went on a news broadcast (unmasked) to brag about hacking Sony.
good times man.
But the thing about not having any devices seized, is that real?
Some people I know have had run-ins with the NBI, and the first thing they do is seize your computers for like a year+?
If that's true then that's really weird...
It's real and just as bizarre as it sounds. You'd think that'd be the #1 thing you'd want in any serious investigation.
Not sure what the theory here is. Am I supposed to worry about the judges stalking me online and reading my HN comments professing innocence?
The prosecutors couldn't, and wouldn't even want to use anything I've written here, especially considering the trial is over and they can't just file new evidence.
The leaked home folder data doesn't really tie that VM to anyone, which is natural given that it seems to have mostly been used to run headless hacking tools and inspect their output.
The idea that I'm linked to this VM comes from the ridiculous idea that lazy hackers would not share SSH key files in order to control access to groups of virtual machines. I.e. if a SSH key fingerprint is at one point tied to me, that key must also still belong to me even when used from a internet connection belonging to another person in another country with a similar track record as me.
In court we had long debates about whether or not hackers could actually be so lazy as to violate best practices by sharing private key material, the lower court rejected such an idea as incredible and found me guilty.
