British Courts Won't Block Hacker's Extradition

Gary McKinnon, the Scottish born hacker who broke into 97 US military and Nasa computers allegedly seeking proof of the existence of UFO's will be extradited to the U.S. within 2 weeks after losing his appeal to the British courts. McKinnon's lawyer, Karen Todner said "He is absolutely devastated by the decision," and "He and his family are distraught. They are completely beside themselves. He is terrified by the prospect of going to America." I guess he should have considered that before he hacked into all of those sensitive computer systems! BBC Story here.
