[edit] Adobe's involvement was not mentioned

This issue is not something I ever worked on, but my memory of the story was that Adobe made a complaint, Dmitri got arrested for giving a security talk, Dmitri spent some time in jail, Adobe withdrew its complaint when public opinion went against it and when withdrawing its complaint would have little or no actual effect. I don't remember how long Dmitri spent in prison, or how long he was detained in the USA in total, and I don't remember the details of the end of the case - but a quick reading of Adobe and EFF's FAQs seems to confirm my vague memory, and yet the article tells a story with no "Adobe" involvment in initiating the arrest and with a happy ever after ending. I am not well qualified to write this article, but it seems I am certainly qualified to improve on its current state. I request others to help improve this article. Gronky 11:55, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

Wilfully or willfully? --153.19.121.120 12:01, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Damages?

Considering the fact that he didn't violate any laws and that the detainment was unlawful (him being a foreign national on a visit) was he paid damages? 122.167.26.116 (talk) 22:22, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
