Nicholas Moore, a 25-year-old from Tennessee, pleaded guilty to hacking into several government systems, including the US Supreme Court's electronic filing system, AmeriCorps, and the Veterans Administration Health System. Using stolen login credentials, he accessed these accounts and shared personal information on his Instagram account, @ihackedthegovernment. During a sentencing hearing in US District Court for the District of Columbia, Moore was sentenced to one year of probation instead of prison time. The US government had recommended 36 months of probation but did not seek incarceration, citing Moore's vulnerabilities and acceptance of responsibility for his actions. Moore, who has long-term disabilities, expressed remorse, stating, “I made a mistake” and emphasized his desire to respect the law and be a good citizen. His actions, which included hacking the Supreme Court's system at least 25 times, were classified as a misdemeanor, punishable by up to one year in prison and a fine of up to $100,000.
