The punishment fit the crime

Imagine that you're the judge.
The jury has found the defendant guilty of launching one of those obnxious "worm" programs that send billions of annoying messages across the internet.
What do you think would be an appropriate sentence?
In grammar school, did the teacher ever make you write 100 times, "I will not..."?
Are you thinking what I'm thinking?

My first reaction was to throw the book at this person, supposedly a young teen male that will be soon arrested. But then, given the direction our culture is going and the increasing pornification of the mass media and its hostility towards Christianity in general and the Catholic Church in particular, we may need a few worm makers in the future& Goliath has to have someone to fear, Achilles has to have its tendon.
