Japan: Police arrest "anti DRM" journalists

Wired: Last week a friend came to visit me at hospital and after a couple of hours he has been arrested by the Japanese Police.

He is one of the 4 journalists from SANSAI BOOKS arrested for selling, through the company website, a copy of a magazine published last year (with a free cover mounted disc) focused on how to backup/rip DVDs. (Amazon, Culture)
