This kid is not a hacker.  Changing a url to point to
profile.php?id=3D45 instead or profile.php?id=3D44 don't require anything
special.  Downloading a tool only requiere knowing how to click
"download". This is level basic of computer useage.  Kids these days
host modded Minecraft servers at 11 years old.

The claim that he got expelled because  he has run a tool that could
have, maybe, made the website slower (the duration of the scan)  is
weak.  A more realistic reason is moral panic // he is making us look
bad.  Making stupid people look stupid should not be a crime.
