The point is your opinion is slanted and you can only assume it's DL because you have NO facts. In any court of law it's not what you say, but what you can prove. This is what pisses me off about people like you, you'll instigate and point fingers at others and say things for personal gains, but when it happens to you or someone you know, you become unglued and run to the authorities for help.
Again, I don't support DL, but I do recognize a guy who will take it to the bitter end and it's best to take your lumps and move on because this type of stuff motivates guys like him. In short, it will only get worse unless you can somehow reason with him.

I believe I said "compromised" and "exploited", not "hacked".
All that means, is that he disseminated in part or whole, a private medical database which is a federal offense. And then he proceeded to "exploit" that information for financial gain.
" Compromised: [ trans. ] weaken (a reputation or principle) by accepting standards that are lower than is desirable : commercial pressures could compromise safety.
? [ intrans. ] accept standards that are lower than is desirable : we were not prepared to compromise on safety.
? bring into disrepute or danger by indiscreet, foolish, or reckless behavior : situations in which his troops could be compromised."
"Exploit:
? use (a situation or person) in an unfair or selfish way : the company was exploiting a legal loophole | accusations that he exploited a wealthy patient.
? benefit unfairly from the work of (someone), typically by overworking or underpaying them : making money does not always mean exploiting others."
Isn't the intricacy of our language fascinating?
