Three People Arrested for Sharing Anime

On May 9 the Kyoto Police's Task force arrested three individuals for suspicion of uploading ripped anime episodes through the P2P program, "Share."
Apparently "Share" was developed by an anonymous user in order to create a more "anonymous" and secure P2P program after the similar incident of arresting of an individual charged for uploading anime through Winny,
but since 2006 the security researchers have found flaws in the program.
