Because people can really say the got busted while they're in prison right? Even guessing someones password is deemed as unauthorized modification of computer material (section 3) of the computer misuse act, which could get you 10 years in prison.
Feds don't care about that, they DO care about botnets. They draw too much attention period, but eh I'm not here to tell you what to do. Just friendly advice. ^^"

Agreed completely. I allow the discussion here, but I wouldn't recommend owning a botnet. Is the risk really worth the reward? That's up to you to decide.
