I read op's commentary more along the lines of emotional immaturity being present, he wasn't really surprised at the nature of the crimes. A lot of these emotionally immature individuals often times are part of the "do things for lulz" mindset. The fact that this started as Minecraft DDOS attacks, re-iterates the immaturity of the individual based on initial targets. I'm not defending these criminals by any means, but I would agree with OP that people whom fit the mental profile of potential asshat hackers are way more common than we'd like to admit. If every crazed rick and morty fan had the technical prowess to pull this stuff off... just imagine the chaos.
