Poke an angry bear and eventually there will be repercussions. At 19 years old, this person may have conceivably thrown his life away. Only time, and the legal process, will tell.
From Sky News:
A Scotland Yard spokesman said: “The arrest follows an investigation into network intrusions and distributed denial of service attacks against a number of international business and intelligence agencies by what is believed to be the same hacking group.
“Searches at a residential address in Wickford, Essex, following the arrest last night have led to the examination of a significant amount of material.
“These forensic examinations remain ongoing.”
Is this the end of the Lulzboat?

And a further check of the Lulzsec twitter feed shows that it has gone quiet.
Meh. They’re still ticking.
