Japan government anti-anime/manga piracy operation by august

[sagatexplus]

To disinfect the site, such as pirated anime
​

The Japanese government will launch a massive anti-piracy campaign for the anime and manga industry this Friday.

In cooperation with 15 major anime production companies and manga publishers, the Japanese government will next month start a huge extermination operation against 580 foreign sites which have illegally uploaded anime and manga contents on the web without the copyright holders' permission, NHK reported on July 28. While the government has started supporting the genre as one of their important cultural exports, there appears to be no end of illegal uploading of anime and manga via pirate sites, mainly operated by Chinese. The Cultural Affairs Agency estimates the loss caused by the Chinese pirate sites last year was amounted to at least 560 billion yen (about US$ 5.5 billion).

On August 1, the government will start simultaneously sending requests to delete illegal anime and manga contents to the operators of the 580 foreign pirate sites which they have found. In addition, the operation will launch a new site to guide the fans to a legitimate site offering some 250 titles including
the latest ones at a cost of several hundred yen.

People should stop throwing a bitchfit over this. Nothing is going to happen. Trying to stop piracy in this day and age is impossible. For every site that is deleted, 10 new ones will be made. Get over it.

 

[Optimistic]

[Wabbit]

they want to remove a content from P i r a t e b a y XD
I dont understand why people are concerned about it.
Why would foreigners listen to their request?
Even local government struggle to stop them.

There mistake was telling everyone there plans and what sites were targeted.

This has been stated quite a few times before. Until they actually do so, there's nothing to fear.

Don't worry guys, you'll get your Naruto dose every week nonetheless.

The weird part is that they're busy about a net loss of 5.5B dollar, while most of the people who read it illegally otherwise wouldn't even buy the manga/anime anyways. Maybe in america through Crunchyroll (if I'm correct), but in my country and a lot of others there really aren't any chances to get manga/anime legally yet. If I go to the comic book store for a manga, the lasest version they have is like the Nagato arc.

That being said, manga isn't as mainstream here as it is in Japan, so they should be somewhat grateful that, through internet (and piracy, which stays illegal), manga has known such a booming culture in the west.

Don't worry man for something like this to truly take effect its going to take a long time. But there are other sources that aren't listed right now so we are still ok
