15-year-old hacker who broke into UFC website is arrested

Earlier this year, the UFC website suffered a hacker attack by the Underground Nazi group H4ck3rHr0up, but only this week the United States police managed to arrest some of those responsible, including a 15-year-old young man.

Cosmo, or Cosmo The God, as the young man is known, will turn 16 in March and could spend his birthday in jail, as American laws allow people his age to be arrested.

The official UFC website was hacked on January 22nd. At the time, visitors were redirected to a page with a drawing of Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler. The motivation behind the act would be the UFC's open support for the controversial “Act to End Online Piracy” (Sopa).
