Fair point.
Some random suggestions, and they may well be rubbish, but:
* Can we get the word 'victim' into the first sentence, and
maybe drop the mention of "software development" (I would
expect tech savvy people to already know about this, and
the general public not to care too much)? Maybe we can also
adjust the language slightly to give an impression of big
bully Adobe preventing people from using Braille terminals.
* Maybe mention again in the text that it was the FBI who
arrested him and refer to him as a "software engineer" (or
whatever). Hopefully give an impression of the FBI vs an
engineer, rather than America vs Dmitry, international
super-villain :)
* At the top, extend the list of events by putting "On
<date> Adobe filed a complaint" (or whatever) at the
beginning and "On <Friday's date> Dmitry Sklyarov is
still in <name of jail> jail".
As I said, just random ideas.
