Jailed for using a nonstandard browser
<quote>
A Londonder made a tsnuami-relief donation using lynx -- a text-based
browser used by the blind, Unix-users and others -- on Sun's Solaris
operating system. The site-operator decided that this "unusual" event
in the system log indicated a hack-attempt, and the police broke down
the donor's door and arrested him.
