The fact that the administration didn't choose to sue them to oblivion is refreshing. I hope we'll see a trend in the future of educator being smart enough to admit that they made a mistake and to encourage the students to develop their talent.

One can only hope.

Being a minor probably helps. There are so many laws today. It's too risky to do this. It's not like it was 25 years ago.

25 years ago wasn’t any better… I recall several in my circle getting suspended for harmless things. The lesson: don’t explore, don’t be curious, and don’t try to fix anything related to the school and computers. Sigh.

People on HN always act like what they were doing was almost noble. You weren't. If you had been picking locks or even rummaging around unlocked desk drawers you'd get the same treatment and deserve it.
