He is thus one of the first people to be jailed for violations of the 1999 Digital Millennium Copyright Act, which makes trafficking in devices intended to aid in copyright violation -- such as chips that circumvent the anti-piracy measures in game consoles -- a crime.
Rocci pled guilty late last year to selling around 450 Enigmah Xbox chips through the site.
