From reading about the GTA leaker, he was repeatedly involved in hacking/extortion attempts with multiple companies causing millions in damages, and he repeatedly said that he would immediately go back to doing it again as soon as he got Internet access again.

So basically he's going to immediately start causing real world damages if released, and he has no intention of pretending otherwise or complying with any kind of probation/etc.
