Andrew Auernheimer, a man who stands accused of hacking into AT&T's servers and stealing more than 100,000 email addresses from iPad owners, faces sentencing in a federal court in New Jersey today. Prosecutors claim that Auernheimer was part of a group of individuals that illegally accessed AT&T's website to gain the list of email addresses. Then he allegedly gave the email list to the media blog Gawker, which published the names in redacted form.
