Missed It: Manga File-Sharing Arrests

It's a pretty self-explanatory story in terms of its initial detail: three people were arrested in Kyoto for violating copyright law by uploading comics from various popular magazines onto the Internet for others to read. The implications are staggering, given the amount of material scanned in for sharing and the benign role that kind of activity plays with a certain kind of reader. Also, there's always the chance there's a hidden underbelly to the basic facts of this story, I guess based on the statement that no one knows where they got some material before official publication.
