http://news.sky.com/story/1578819/bo...-talktalk-hack

[A 16-year-old boy from London has been arrested in connection
with the investigation into alleged data theft from TalkTalk.
Police confirmed officers carried out a search at a residential property in Liverpool
in connection with the cyber attack.]

What do they teach kids in schools these days?

I hope that, after they complete their sentences if found guilty, either the government or a company puts their talents to good use. If they can cause that much damage then surely they'll know how to defend systems from similar attacks from others.

Another Punk 16 year old arrested on this case

Making it 4 Punks

On the plus side they are not on the streets letting off fireworks :D:

'A schoolboy arrested following the TalkTalk cyber attack is suing three national newspapers for alleged breach of privacy, according to an RTE report, also carried in the Irish Independent.

Lawyers for the 15-year-old claim that his privacy was compromised by articles in the Daily Telegraph, Daily Mail and the Sun. Similar claims were made against Google and Twitter.

Some details of the case can be disclosed because reporting restrictions were partially lifted by a judge at the high court in Belfast on Friday. Pending its outcome, all three newspapers gave undertakings aimed at protecting the boy’s identity.'
