Is former Cardinals scout Chris Correa's prison time for "hacking” fair? | The Tylt
Former Cardinals scout Chris Correa has been sentenced to nearly four years in prison after "hacking" the Houston Astros. Some are arguing the sentence is extreme for guessing a password. Others say he illegally accessed important information on scouting and the team's players. Was the #HackingVerdictFair or #HackingVerdictUnfair?

He did a stupid thing, and now he must suffer the consequences.
Very bright people tend to do very stupid things. Chris Correa will now pay dearly for his arrogance. #STLCards #Astros #Hacking

Today is Chris Correa's day of reckoning. The #Cardinals' day of reckoning is coming up. #Hacking

Astros general counsel Giles Kibbe said Correa accessed Ground Control -- their internal data base -- 60x between March '13-June 28, '14.

@bomani_jones Correa was facing 25 years - 5 yrs max for each count he pled to. Lucky prosecutor let him serve the time concurrently.

Does guessing a password really mean "hacking"?
Hacking = guessing someone's password https://t.co/jzM0HGXZfI https://t.co/q6vm68maU2

Like you wouldn't break into a vault to steal notes, but if they're just chilling on a computer with the password Eckstein123, I mean...

The sentence seems extreme to some.
@derektmead the prison sentence is a bit much don't ya think?

@zacker10 stealing data on trade negotiations/player notes is big for pro sports, I would say sentence is surprising but not unfounded

Some pointed out that Hillary won't face prison time for her emails, but Chris has to serve for guessing a password.
Chris Correa gets 46 months in prison for hacking baseball stuff but Hillary Clinton not in jail for her emails that involve U.S. some crap

So Chris Correa gets 4 years in jail for checking out the Astros roster info without permission... Hillary still gets a pass. Seems fair 🙄

Chris Correa gets 4 years for his Astros hacking. What do I get for stealing my friends phones and putting up fake Facebook statuses?
