Absolutely ridiculous. From what I've read about "weev", he wasn't really the nicest guy on the 'net. I don't know specifics, but really, I don't think they matter.
Here we have a person accessing publicly available data on a public server. Its analogous to ATT posting customer information in a public alleyway (maybe not intended for public viewing, but within the legal possibility of the public to view), and having someone take a picture of the information.
No violence, no trespassing. Disseminating information left sitting around == Jail. This kind of crap needs to stop.
