A 25-year-old Tennessee man avoided prison time after pleading guilty to accessing government systems with stolen login credentials and boasting of the deed on an Instagram account with the handle, @ihackedthegovernment.
Defendant Nicholas Moore accessed user accounts on the US Supreme Court’s electronic filing system, AmeriCorps, and the Veterans Administration Health System. He then publicly posted screenshots of the users’ personal information to his @ihackedthegovernment account on Instagram. It’s unclear how he obtained the stolen login information.
Moore was sentenced to a year of probation today in US District Court for the District of Columbia. The US government had requested 36 months of probation for the unauthorized access that took place in 2023 from August to October. The government sentencing recommendation did not request any jail time or a fine.
