    Funnerific reacted to Tyr in Sanahtlig "upgrades" to Windows 10: A Diary   
    They are not overreacting. It was proven by analyzing the data the OS is sending to Microsoft that Windows 10 spies more on you than any other Windows before.
    If you don't know what you are talking about, please stop spreading misinformation. This is a serious issue and it shouldn't be played down.

    Please do not complain about the VNDB tag system if you refuse to contribute. The tag system is an open voting system, if you don't vote for tags then complain about their absence, you're just being a huge hypocrite.

    Funnerific reacted to Eai in Why are so people so "sensitive" when it comes to nudity, porn etc?   
    Japanese can seem prudish about sex, but they are actually not, or were actually not. (At least lot less than western countries at the time). In Japan there's this thing about Public face and Private face concept (omote/ura).
    Japan is still a nation who celebrates fertility and other things related to sex through festivals displaying giant erects penis and such. Because in Shinto/bhudism, originally sex was just seen as something completely part of life, pleasurable and which could be celebrated . https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kanamara_Matsuri
    or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hōnen_Matsuri
    These things don't exist in Western countries, and i think some people will get offended if it happened. Whereas in Japan it shocks nobody. Also in the past, i heard Japanese were even displaying shunga and erotic pictures sometimes in their own house, and also that they were used as luck charms by people going to war and such.
    But since the introduction of 'western' standards' through Japan, it has introduced a contradiction with these former traditionnal values. But they can't supress these things because they were once integral part of their culture. There are also things like public baths which were once not separated by sex at all, these ones were encouraged to disappear to not shock the western sensibilities of the time, but even up to this day they still exists.
    It's also probably the reason Japan is one of the only asian countries were porn is legal though censored, in other countries like China, Korea, Thailand ect, Porn is absolutely forbidden.
    Problem with Japanese culture is that they have this 'it can't be helped' stance about things even when they are bothering them. For example many Japanese would like sex censorship to disappear, but they will not push their governement about it. A single politician will very unlikely repell the law because people will mock him and use this to decribilise him. They prefer to an exterior occurance happens then they can justify the decision of getting rid of it. If you look into japanese boards like 4ch, there's people who hope some vn and anime get licensed in foreign country rather than send complains to the governement about supressing the law. There are also people using the law at their advantage for distributing 'illegal' uncensored content (ura douga), of normally censored porn videos, this market is big in japan and is highly related to Yakuza protection and such. It's an extremely lucrative market which can earn millions to the people who do it. Like in this article in which they can make profits up to 130 million yen only with online dvd sales (approximatively 1,3 million dollars). http://www.japantoday.com/category/crime/view/illegal-mosaic-free-porn-business-busted
    I hope one day Japanese will repell this law. Unfortunately i think it's unlikely because i don't think the people concerned will want to publicly advocate against it.
    For South korea case in the OP, it might be related to the fact porn in Korea is illegal.
