And for the the actual topic related to this article, I also agree, particularity for the ease of access to information on the internet, this is not anywhere near over for other powerful figures. And this is not a new phenomenon with or without it. Either these powerful people will get justice served, or unfortunately get better at hiding it.
Sad that it hits so close to home. I love Toy Story. There are deeper psychological issues for this man for sure.
Edit: More constructive comments included.

He is on leave for 6 months until the public focuses on another topic, then he will come back and keep doing what he has been doing. The public has the minds and patience of goldfish.

Nobody is more saddened by this news than Miazaki I am sure... knowing that Miyazaki is (or was) very close friends with John will undoubtedly make things very awkward for him now. Even as a big fan of Pixars' earlier work, this has me shaking my head in disgust. I believe there must be even worse acts pertaining to John that we don't know about, but since he is under the roof of Disney, he will make a deal with the media and shield the worst bits. Disney won't allow the bad stuff to get out -- their lawyers will make sure of it.

Weinstein seemed like a legit monster, but now we've got... a guy that gave hugs. Really? |
Didn't know we were grading on a scale. Besides he's the one who describes it as just "hugs". Obviously it was a little more than that. |
Aye, Sumo wrestling usually starts off as a "hug" showing that that action alone will leave one vulnerable to all sorts of violations to one's person. However having said that; the increase of alleged "victims" coming forward does raise the obvious question, how many are actually true and how many are bogus by people looking to fulfill a grudge, or gain financially via some compensation payment. These situations have been exposed by false rape claims in the past in many courts through out the world including here in the UK.

What's keeping Miyazaki from being exposed by some in his past?

The 1921 Virginia Rappe rape/murder that Fatty Arbuckle was acquitted of wast the Hollywood sex crime scandal that started them all. Though Arbuckle continued to do direct or play in films/shorts until his death in 1933, his career really plummeted after the scandal.

Damn. No one is safe from being exposed these days. Every time you wake up you have to wonder who is getting accused now.
