You can't really blame a kid at that age... Kids at that age have no sense of fear or can't recognize what is punishable or not. Everything is a game, especially years back as that internet was not so evolved and the laws around it weren't so strict.

Its Valve's fault for letting a 16 y/o install malwares on their computers... When you are developing something you got to be serious about its security as well if you want it to remain a secret. It feels to me like their employees and IT department had no actual sense of what security was (Employees going off installing whatever on their computer, and IT team not being able to track down malware and outgoing packets to unknown sources...)
