    And why couldn’t they have done that to the student loans system?

    Like JFC, they could have instantly made themselves immune from trial-by-jury anywhere in America by doing that one tiny thing.

    Back in 2015, the brothers pled guilty in Virginia to a scheme involving wire fraud and computers. Muneeb was sentenced to three years in prison, while Sohaib got two.

        It’s not what that image is, but keychron released a single giant key keyboard a little while back. Similar idea at least. Sold out immediately.

    Muneeb and Sohaib Akhter, now both 34, had been in trouble before. Back in 2015, the brothers pled guilty in Virginia to a scheme involving wire fraud and computers. Muneeb was sentenced to three years in prison, while Sohaib got two.

    They had a track record and found employment in government IT

    HR should’ve been fired for that fuckup.
