Policing hasn't caught up to technology, nor has modern law.

Consider a recent EU ruling that makes IP addresses "private" information. Those sorts of ruling not only protect the hackers, but embolden them by putting them in a position to have another legal "out" when they do get caught.

Getting a few of them caught and sent to the big house for a while might change things. But the police are still too busy handing out jaywalking tickets and enforcing parking meters to worry about that computer thing.
