An Australian man facing 25 hacking charges has fled to Europe, ahead of being trialled for his involvement in an international hacking ring targeting major computer firms, reports The Register.
The 19-year-old from Perth was arrested as a juvenile in May 2013 – hence they can’t be named – and is said to have caused $100m in damages to victims Microsoft, Epic, Valve and the US Army. He is said to have stolen unreleased games including Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Gears of War 3 as well as an Apache helicopter training program.
