**Supreme Court Hacker Exposed: Stolen Government Data Posted on Instagram**
The shocking case of Nicholas Moore, a 24-year-old resident of Springfield, Tennessee, has sent shockwaves through the cybersecurity community. Last week, Moore pleaded guilty to hacking into the U.S. Supreme Court's electronic document filing system, but the specifics of his crimes remained shrouded in mystery.
However, a newly filed court document, obtained by TechCrunch, has shed light on the scope and brazen nature of Moore's hacks. According to the filing, Moore not only targeted the Supreme Court systems but also infiltrated those of AmeriCorps, a government agency responsible for administering stipend volunteer programs, and the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), which provides healthcare and welfare services to military veterans.
Moore gained access to these networks using stolen credentials from authorized users. Once inside, he accessed and stole sensitive personal data, including names, current and past electronic filing records, and other confidential information. The most astonishing aspect of Moore's crimes? He posted some of the stolen data on his Instagram account, @ihackthegovernment.
The victim, identified as GS, had their name and Supreme Court records exposed to the world, a stark reminder of the consequences of cybercrime. The court document reveals that Moore faces a maximum sentence of one year in prison and a maximum fine of $100,000 for his crimes.
Moore's actions have sparked outrage among cybersecurity experts and government officials alike. "This case highlights the importance of robust cybersecurity measures to protect sensitive government data," said Seamus Hughes, founder of Court Watch, who first spotted the new court filing. "The fact that Moore was able to steal and post this information online is a disturbing reminder of the potential for harm."
As the investigation into Moore's activities continues, one thing is clear: his actions have set off alarm bells within government agencies and cybersecurity communities worldwide. The incident serves as a stark warning about the vulnerabilities of even the most secure systems and the devastating consequences of cybercrime.
