âMariposaâ Botnet Authors May Avoid Jail Time
,----[ Quote ]
| Three Spanish men were arrested last month
| for allegedly building an international
| network of more than 12 million hacked PCs
| that were used for everything from identity
| theft to spamming. But according to Spanish
| authorities and security experts who helped
| unravel the crime ring, the accused may very
| well never see the inside of a jail cell even
| if they are ultimately found guilty, due to
| insufficient cyber crime legislation in
| Spain.
