nothing will happen to anyone who got any results........its the BOS ppl who r responsible for this.....if they didnt have such crappy security this wouldnt have happened..........if anyone gets in trouble it will be the kid who hacked in............everyone else is fine.......

To be honest, I think the police will have better things to do with their time. I mean its 100 people we are talking about. Only the guy who hacked the site, would get into major trouble. So unless your the hacker, take it easy :p. If you are the hacker, then get out of NSW hehee

I think the "internet chat room" was a channel on MIRC

And Brett didnt hack in, he just used the site :D

Technically yes, although it is a legal grey area. In reality, nobody's going to get into trouble, more likely Board of Studies will be investigated for how such information was stored so insecurely.

i doubt anyone will get in trouble beside the hacker because there was no fore warning about accessing their result prior to friday by BOS

the people who got their result did nothing wrong

no im saying students that accessed the data - will they get in trouble.
why would they...........anyone given the opportunity to get their marks will check it.............its the Bos's fault for not properly securing marks.
