Would they be equally outraged if the woman tore the page out of the mag and showed it to her friends? Passed the untorn mag around? How silly.

The obvious solution is for magazines to include pictures of hairstyles and garments so hideous no one will want to share them.

psyork: I suppose that would depend on if she tore it out of a magazine at the newstand which she didn't purchase.

Also, make sure not to recall in your memory something that you read in a magazine you dind't buy. These memory shoplifters are a menace to the magazine publishing industry.

If memory serves me correctly, there were plenty of
people in Tokyo reading magazines while standing
around in newstands...and not paying for them!

IP hits AR: the intellectual property wars are hitting augmented reality. This ties in with the Starbucks photo fight, and reaches back to moviemakers fighting for permission for nearly every object in frame (cf Lessig's first chapter, Future of Ideas).

If it's as bad as the publishers claim, it will be a self-reparing problem. Do it enough, circulation drops on the magazine and it goes out of business. Then the OLs in Japan will no longer be able to get the pictures they want and something new will come along again...

Since this is a cell-phone camera issue, shouldn't it have been
posted by Xeni?

Yeah ... that's not very reassuring if you're a magazine publisher though, is it?
The countermeasure for this is shrinkwrapping, surely?

Of course not. The countermeasure is to enforce the installation of watermark detection hardware into mobile phone digital cameras, make it punishable by law to tamper with, then require phones that detect a copyright watermark anywhere in the frame they're snapping to explode. This will be particularly easy to implement once they're all running on fuel cells.
