Fun fact: I was in the chat on hackforums conversation room when this guy was seeking out someone to help him scam Twitter users, I watched them take the conversation to Discord before learning what unfolded the next day.

They didn't arrest the dude because he was 17??? That's crazy. He can legally drive a car and consent to make love. He can even work and pay taxes.

Takeaway for young generation from this video : Don’t worry, it’s totally fine to commit crimes until you turn 18. The justice system is a joke to juveniles, so have fun I guess.
