Jezus christ that's messed up. The way you have been treated is truly outrageous. I wish you all the best in dealing with this situation.
Recently some guy from the Netherlands hacked into the Blendle website and told them about it (just like you did). They thanked him, fixed the issue and gave him a cake. Then he did it again. They then offered him a permanent job and he got hired immediately. This is how your situation should have been. He now has a steady job doing what he loves, instead of serving prison time, and instead of having a criminal record, he actually enjoys some positive fame: There has been a positive article about how his hacking skills got him this job in one of the national newspapers.
It is ridiculous to see how much the outcomes of both of your situations differ, while they started out so similarly.
Again, good luck. It angers me to no extent to see how "justice" gets served by such ignorant people. I can't imagine how you must feel.
Edit: For anyone who wants to read the article about the Dutch hacker: You can read it on Blendle, ironically. (In dutch, sorry)
