21-yo breaks into T-Mobile for a year, gets caught

T-Mobile

What would you do if you had unfettered access to T-Mobile's networks for a year? Snoop on Snoop? Peep on Paris's pictures? Screen Catherine Zeta-Jones's email? Or perhaps you'd like to take it to the next level and monitor Secret Service communications? (We're not even going to ask why T-Mo is handling Secret Service communications.) But of any or all of the above, we'd suggest that it's probably not the best idea to brag about your mad 'sploit and start leaking SS docs on IRC rooms. So props to 21-year old Nicolas Jacobsen for proving his ultimate 1337ness, and then for subsequently getting real, real busted. Is it just us, or do all all these hacker stories seem to unfurl the exact same way?
