A Queensland court has sentenced a local computer hacker to two years jail. A Maroochydore District Court jury convicted Vitek Boden of hacking into the computer-controlled sewerage system of the local council and deliberately releasing raw sewerage into local creeks and parks. He was sentenced for 12 months for wilfully causing serious environmental harm, and also received a two year sentence for several computer hacking and theft charges. The sentences will be served concurrently.
