If this sort of thing were classified as a capital offense that upon conviction, carried a mandatory death sentence without any optional sentencing possible by the judge, you would see a dramatic decrease in hacking and other sorts of computer tampering.

"a mandatory death sentence => a dramatic decrease in hacking and other sorts of computer tampering."True, but then the security holes would remain and only be exploited during times of war by governments and/or terrorist groups.
I don't like them either, but then I don't understand why it's so hard to make secure software.
