Why couldn't these guys just visit their local BookOff and buy a ton of manga for only ¥105 each?

Legal system really sucks everywhere, huh? People are still getting punished over file-sharing even in Japan.

You can thank dugout doug for that law. That would be dugout doug macarthur, the "SCAP" aka "emperor of Japan" From Sep 1945 until 1950 when then Pres Truman sent him packing for being insubordinate.

The law existed well before WWII.

Trouble is, if these doofuses want to be recognized they have to brag about it. If they do it anonymously and are only a hero in their own mind then what good is that? They're not heroes, they're just stupid. Hurting someone else's livelihood just to be a hero to a bunch of freeloaders, what a thrill that must be...

But Japan's constitution was completely re-written after WW2 and dugout doug had a large say WRT what went it in and what didn't get in it.

I guess he didn't feel it necessary to provide Japan with uncensored images when that stuff was still massively taboo in America at the time, and the Japanese would have likely agreed then as well. They did make other forms of censorship illegal.
Still, Japan's had self-determination for over 60 years, they could have changed it by now without fearing America, especially in the age of JAVs, soaplands, pink salons, and love hotels.

The only way people get busted on PD is because they either brag or get ratted out. |
I don't know. Japanese firm NetAgent has been working on breaking PD's encryptions. When the stricter copyright law went into effect in 2010, they nailed several uploaders who were using Perfect Dark, so there's a chance they had made headway. Perhaps the gap since then was mostly due to catch up as Perfect Dark is updated to use different encryption keys and NetAgent and other firms have to start over.
