Japanese police ask ISPs to start blocking Tor

http://j.mp/15yWscN  (ars technica)

  "According to The Mainichi, the National Police Agency (NPA, a bit like
   the Japanese FBI) is going to urge ISPs to block customers if they are
   found to have "abused" Tor online. Since Tor anonymizes traffic, that
   can be read as a presumption of guilt on anyone who anonymizes their
   Web activity."
