I don’t think he’s done anything legally significant to anyone else. Being a dick isn’t a crime.
he created the legal definition of a botnet, which is a crime.
dbzer0.com is hosted out of Bavaria. that means his botnet crossed international borders which means he can be charged by every country along the way of the crime.
all it would take is some anonymous tips to the FBI and German authorities and he would be investigated and likely charged.
dude was an asshole for stuffing a hidden blacklist into his platform. once he made the change to create a botnet, he became a criminal.
I’m genuinely interested in knowing whether a case like this would be picked up at all. In the UK, it appears there is no minimal amount od damage incurred, so in such case I’d really think it’s possible. Db0 don’t even need to be the ones to sue or report the incident according to what I could find.
