Both a Plus and Minus for the Resume

30 felony charges, stealing or extorting over $100,000 in Bitcoin, stealing Twitter accounts--despite his flawed morality and actions a teen-age Florida boy will be rich before the age of 30:
A Florida teen has been arrested in connection with the massive Twitter hack earlier this month that impacted the accounts of Barack Obama, Elon Musk, Kanye West and other high-profile users.
Although 17-year-olds can be prosecuted as adults in Florida, it will be a win-win if the kid serves his time helping out the Florida cyber-crime unit.
The 17-year-old Tampa resident, who was arrested Friday, was hit with 30 felony charges in connection with the hack, according to Hillsborough State Attorney Andrew Warren.
Breaking into Twitter requires more skill than downloading a few hacking tools off the Dark Web.
