S01E02 - Operación Bitcoins: Login To HELL ep. 1 of 10

“In 2014, Alberto Daniel Hill, an expert in cybersecurity, found a security issue in a medical provider’s website. In reporting the issue, it led him to become the first person imprisoned in Uruguay for a computer-related crime—a crime he didn’t commit, and one that probably never even happened.  Alberto, a hacker, was the perfect target for a judicial system that doesn’t understand cybersecurity or cybercrimes.  Through police misconduct and incompetence, his life was thrown into upheaval, and he is still recovering from a system where there are no guarantees of a fair trial.  Rife with injustice and anguish, Alberto’s story doesn’t have a fairy tale ending. It is a lesson for Uruguay and the world to implement fair processes for prosecuting cybercrimes.  Alberto’s tale will stand as a stark reminder of the dangers of a judiciary system that hasn’t caught up to the technology of the 21st century.“  Stephanie Holland, Editor  https://darkdeepweb.com/ History featured in the podcast  Darknet Diaries: https://darknetdiaries.com/episode/25/ The book about the story: http://amazon.albertohill.com https://darkweb.today/ https://darkdeepweb.com/ https://twitter.com/DarkwebToday https://twitter.com/ADanielHill --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/darkwebtoday/message
