Japanese virus writer arrested for distributing "Clannad" footage - robkelk - 01-26-2008

Because of a lack of anti-hacking laws in Japan, an accused virus writer has been arrested for distributing footage from the anime Clannad. Details http://news.smh.com.au/japanese-police- ... -1o6w.html]here.

I can't help but think of Al Capone - he was arrested for tax evasion, not any organized criminal activity, and they made it stick...
