5 monthsThere are many many kinds of laws that are fucked in Japan. Court in general is a whole other cultural world from what I hear and however unfair courts are in the west, in Japan they are even less so.

5 monthsYeah there are many nice things about Japan but this and its whole court system are NOT one of them.

I just find it weird how big dog bullying the small dog becomes justified when we have a vendetta against the small dog.

Are you serious? You’re the one who made the “cloudflare can strongarm the Japanese govt” comment. I can see that you feel strongly about the Japanese media industry but this is the exact cognitive dissonance I’m talking about.
I don’t care what’s good and what’s bad. It’s fucking weird to cheer an international megacorp to ignore the courts of a foreign country.

I can’t tell if I can’t articulate what I mean well enough or if you’re just reading it in bad faith so I’ll reiterate for the last time.
I have not made a general statement about caring for good in life. I meant that for the question of whether it should be considered okay for megacorps to ignore court orders, what they’re ignoring is irrelevant. Cheering them to do it for a good cause normalizes it for when they do it for bad, which is the majority of the time.
And it is especially off putting how comments like this are much more common when it’s the courts of a non-western country that produced the bad ruling, as if they are less sovereign than an American company.

Do any of them implement blocking for piracy websites in the way that Japan wants?

So any provider is liable too if they don’t block piracy sites? Cmon, be real.
