British Hacker Hired By Liberian Company's Competitor Gets Three Years In The Slammer

A British hacker whose cyberattacks took the nation of Liberia offline has been jailed for almost three years.
Daniel Kaye launched a series of attacks on Liberian cell phone operator Lonestar in October 2015.
According to CNN, the attacks became so powerful they knocked out the west African country's internet the following year.
Kaye, 30, had been hired to carry out the attacks by a senior employee at rival operator Cellcom.
