. . .arrest the employees of the Adobe Moscow office ??? After all, ADOBE is breaking Russian law. . . oops, nearest office is in Sweden. However, they DO have an agent in Russia:

Russia 

AZ-Graphics Co.
24 Pravda Street, Office 706
Pressa Entrance
Moscow 125865
Russia
Tel: (+7) 095-257-45-23
Fax: (+7) 095-251-42-49

Actually, I'm surprised that there HASN'T been a counter-arrest in Russia, or a uproar from the Duma. . . .

... you know what you have to do. Walk to your friendly neighbourhood police office, and file a criminal complaint against AZ-Graphics Co. for trafficking in fraudulent fair-use locked software. If enough such complaints are received, the police has to act in one way or another.
