IMO, people like this guy who do what he did aren't in it for spite, or to willingly destroy anything, but instead because of hubris and arrogance. He wants everyone to know that he's smarter and better than everyone else. Unfortunately, I don't think just shaking a finger at him and telling him not to do it again will stop him. I think he may need some kind of punishment to convince him to change his ways.
