I know a little (not much!) about criminal law (I'm a Massachusetts lawyer, 
actually going to be in Portland to take the Oregon bar next week), and I 
can't think of much.  They could stop their pressure, naturally.  They 
could stop handing over evidence, etc. etc. etc.  How much does the DOJ 
want to prosecute him without Adobe's cheering section?

The protest is mainly, as I conceptualize it, a way to let future 
corporations know that calling in the feds will be met with resistance.
