LulzSec Hacker Jake Davis Released from Detention
A convicted hacker who was detained in a young offender institution has been released - but will now face strict limitations on his technology use. Jake Davis, 20, was convicted of computer hacking for his role in the notorious group LulzSec.
He cannot contact anyone who associates themselves with the wider Anonymous hacktivist collective. He told the BBC he planned to release a prison diary and to write a film about the internet.
Davis returned to Twitter on 22 June after finishing his 37-day term at Feltham young offender institution. During that time he penned what he described as a "nerdy" diary, written using pen and paper, which he hopes to publish online once it has been subjected to legal checks. He is forbidden from creating encrypted files, securely wiping any data or deleting his internet history.
