Article on arrest of journalist on hacking charges.

I ran across this article on a journalist arrested for “hacking” in the UK. (http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10000872396390443409904577619201504739214.html) Not a lot on the technical side of what he did, but it gives some interesting insight into the institutional and social side of things. You may have heard of the UK tabloid that was shut down after an employee gained access to a murder victim’s cell phone voice mails. This is part of the same saga.
