“Norwegian police raided the home of Jon Johansen last night
and charged him and his father with breaking copyright
laws.“
“Johansen is understood to be the man who first posted on the
Internet the source code for DeCSS — the code that allows users to
side-step copyright protection controls on DVDs enabling them to
make illegal copies.”
“Reports from two Norwegian news sites, Dagbladet and
Nettavisen, claim that Johnasen’s father was also included in the
haul because his site was used to publish the program used to break
the DVD encryption.”
