TL;DR - a man accused of cyber crimes (hacking) related to his exposure of the rape of a teenage girl faces more jail time (5 times more) than the rapists themselves. Our criminal justice system seems pretty fucked up on some fronts these days.

The way our laws are currently enforced has more to do with control than any objective standard regarding maintaining a civil society.

You can replace "the way our laws are currently enforced" with almost anything the government does in the last decade or so and still have a valid and poignant statement.
