Not enough
The phrases "locked up" and "key thrown away" come to mind. Still, might be a deterrent to others, if only their respective governments were to clamp down equally hard.
One of the first figures to plaster the internet with millions of spam messages before being driven underground has been criminally charged for hacking some 500,000 Facebook accounts, stealing their personal information, and sending 27 million unwanted advertisements. Sanford Wallace, now 43, first figured out a way to evade …
What this guy does costs companies millions of dollars to protect from and clean up after. Every day I have to clean up this sort of shit, and that's *after* my company's email filters have trashed the 90% of mail they can identify as spam. He didn't just spit in someone's beer, he took the sewage truck fleet and sprayed its contents over the city.
Never mind just locking him up, he should be breaking rocks for the next 20 years, and banned from ever connecting to a network again if he lives long enough to get out.
All he did was hack peoples accounts, impersonate them and break the terms and conditions of the site he abused.
This isn't email he is abusing, this is hacking and abusing a service.
He could do the same on e-commerce sites and nick your credit card details, would you be so defensive of him if he did?
It's not minor when the number of spams he's spewed has more than nine zeros at the end. If you want proof of what I said, you can go back to the journals and see from the number of lawsuits he's lost and hundreds of millions of dollars he owes that this BSFH is in no way, shape, or form a minor spammer. He wasn't given the name King of spam for no reason.
And here's another fact: if you took all the electricity this BSFH has caused to be wasted on spam and put it on the electric grid, it could power the whole world for a year, if not a decade.
I learned well from my mother, who told me "I told you a million times not to exaggerate!"
Looking at what he's done...
It's not just shoving out advertising on Facebook...
He's been hacking into the accounts of other Facebook users.
And if he's been doing this for adverts, somebody has been paying him to do it. Looks like a criminal conspiracy with the advertisers. Maybe even comes under RICO. Oh, the chances are that the people paying aen't in the USA, and were supplying certain well-known drug products, and were generally as shady as all heck. But if they wewre paying him for this, I wonder how accurate his tax returns are...
Trouble is, when this sort of creep can get hammered in so many different ways by the Law, why do the bigger crooks get away with so much. And is anyone really safe?

He is totally mess up, he used phishing to hack everyone account. Actually in order to post anything on Facebook, you don't need to access their password and username, only what you need is their login email address. If you HACKED somone account, you can be arrested. but I think by passing user account is legal to do instead of hacking... LOL, if you want to know contact me how to by pass facebook account.
If I were the judge, my sentence on the contempt charge would be simple: the sentences for the fraud charges would be served consecutively, not concurrent. And, he would not be allowed access to any computer for any reason until he left prison. That would get him out of our hair for a few decades.
It's about time they throw this recidivist in jail. Please? Just throw the key away. Just conveniently lose it - you will be doing the whole world a very big favor. Actually they should give him a video screen. One with an infinite number of channels, each channel only displaying one of his spams. That should (almost) be enough punishment.
And when he dies, he will suffer eternal damnation for being the worst human being in this world for causing the most hatred.
The second and third worst are Canter and Siegel.
