Absolutely criminal. I bet they were h-manga like Kodomo no Jeeken.

After confirming the facts, we have determined that the smartphone screen of the employee involved, which was shown in a video stream, showed a link that he had inadvertently touched while surfing the net, and that it accidentally became part of his access history.

Suuure...

Pretty careless, or did he forget they'd be on livestream?

Reminds me of Steve Buschemi's "Define Irony: a bunch of idiots dancing to a song ("Sweet Home Alabama") by a band that died in a plane crash on an plane " linefrom the film Con Air

"Define Irony: An editor for a pirate manga busted for piracy ." Razz

$10 says that said editor is the son of someone important or has material on someone who is.

Or that he himself is considered important as the editor of One Piece. After the Act Age fiasco, I'm sure Shueisha very much wants to hide an incident like this since it's not nearly as bad as that other situation and is a lot easier to claim plausible deniability.
