Faced with mounting foreign and domestic pressure, Japan’s government has been forced to rethink how to handle the country’s huge market in child pornography, raising hopes for an overdue ban on possession.
While it is illegal to produce or distribute child pornography in Japan, possessing it is not – an anomaly Japan shares with only one other G8 nation, Russia. The release last month of national police agency figures showing a dramatic rise in the number of known child pornography cases coincides with new calls for the government to take action. Yet, say campaigners, national legislators lack the political will to change the law.

Manga.
I volunteer for a fansub group for current animes and the hentai (porn) stuff are borderline kiddie-rape.
Is that the same thing as “rorikon” (Lolita Complex)?
So, if they ban possession, that means banning manga/hentai/lolicon comics.
They will never do any such thing. Anime is everything to them.
It would be like banning beer in North America.
It should be illegal to have it, but they should also have a amnesty / shield law for people reporting it when they stumble across it or it is infected on their computer.
I was horrified to find one of 8 year old kids hosting this from their computer, thank god they weren’t aware of it or saw any of it. It was some kind of worm that been installed on their computer. I wiped it and reinstalled everything.
I would have loved to turn that computer hard drive over to the police but have seen stories in the paper of people who did being dragged into the legal system for years defending against a dumb prosecutor that isn’t aware that people can implant your computer to host these things without your knowledge.
If they made you 100% immune and anonymous to report these events, it would make these pedophiles lives hell.
They will still have their underage magazines and DVD’s of children in thongs posing sexually.
This isn’t about cartoons. This is about real child exploitation. The cartoons are bad enough.
Everyone involved in porn should just die and make the world a better place. IMO.
It’s close..pronounced “loli” for westerners. Anything title that starts with Oni’ (elder or father) with “chichi” (slang for loli/daughter) is pretty much kiddie-rape. And that’s not the sick part, the hentai’ anime in Japan has crossed the borders of decency with everything from getting raped by space aliens to Orcs to demons. Believe me, this is normal to the J culture.
There is a website where you simply tell the FBI the URL.
This is something you want to keep to yourself, at least until the hard drive in question is no longer in your posession and can’t be traced to you. Destroy it with a hammer before you toss it. A sledgehammer, or an axe. The magnetic disks themselves must be turned into trash, like the lid of an old tin can. Like confetti is better.
No url, it was a worm,,,,, like a virus, the stuff was on the computer
No worries, it was from 1995 or 96, computer is long gone, so is the hard drive
porn sites are probably the worst for getting computers infected too.
Another reason to delete them all.
Japan is a sick racist nation.
Just thinking, you prove my point quite nicely.
I should have and should be able to walk a computer that was infected without fear of what the hacker had put on the computer without any worry that the police/prosecutor would target me.
I might loose it, but I wouldn’t have a problem with them taking it and not returning it. As long as they get the bastards.
You will also find that “non-hentai” anime is almost as perverted. Underage incest is a COMMON THEME in real Japanese TV cartoon programs, its disgusting.
No one on this board knows what a worm is either?....dang
It goes in your computer without you surfing a site, they break in using a script without any assistance of any kind from you.
Worms usually get you when you don’t have a fire wall or it isn’t setup right.
Will that work with an infected laptop?
No good.
The porn traffic-ers would use that loophole as a defense. Cynical software developers would create apps that could make anyone's child porn stash look like it had been deposited on the hard drive by a "worm" or a "trojan" or whatever. Remember, when a real child pornographer, or consumer of such material, comes to trial, his lawyer only has to plant the seed of "reasonable doubt" in the mind of the jury, and he walks.
Remember what happened with Peter Townshend.
"I was doing research on my new idea for virus prevention, and I had to go crawling through all kinds of questionble websites to do a good test."
I'm not saying anything here about Townshend's guilt or innocence. I'm only referring to his defense, which was that he was "doing research." The charges against him were dismissed in the UK.
