When it comes to honor killing, I'd be the first to tell such bastards to leave this particular cultural custom at the doorstep when entering Canada. If they have issues with our vision of preserving life above all, I don't give a shit about their culture. From the moment someone is killed whatever the motive is, then I won't mind having them rot in jail for life. |

You don't need one protester to call several hundred times, you just a few hundred to call a few times each once a week and it can be effective in harrassing the crap out of you and it won't cost much since it's being spread out of a large pool of callers.

The only "crack" is that people are too stupid to disguise filenames using alternative conduits. I'll do the homework for the rest of us: http://www.privacylover.com/other-pe...user-arrested/ Method - not retouching the content or using derpy open filenames or social engineering .... not exactly "cracking" any more than harvesting IPs on torrent is "cracking". NetAgent can be used for all kinds of network monitoring.

Still, how are they going to enforce it without blowing their economy apart? It represents close to US$4b of their overseas sales, and being in part of the tech sector, stifling it can kill Japan's electronics exports too.
And if they still fail to raise sales, then what are they going to sue next? Nico? Note that in the first scene in the Music Moral Keepers' headquarters, it is shadowed by skyscrapers. Aren't skyscrapers symbols of excess corporatism? The idiots in the Diet need to realise that without the internet, the world's interest in Japan and their products would cease during the lost decade - there is always South Korea to take over them and they will need another Matthew Perry to hit their shores. Won't it be easier to improve the standards of English education in their schools so the anime companies don't have to rely on the outside world to translate the works, and therefore lose market share and control to the internet that quickly?
