Here's an interesting story. Several weeks ago, I imported several brand new and sealed Japanese Junior Idol DVDs from eBay (pic related, was one of them).

In case you didn't know, Junior Idols are basically just models, except under the age of 18. And no, there are no nudity whatsoever in these DVDs, the most that'll happen is just swimsuits, which is what you would usually see on a typical day on the beach. Still, that hasn't stopped certain countries from trying to ban it. And Saaya Irie is the most famous one internationally (google her and be surprised).

Okay, so I imported several of these brand new and sealed Junior Idol DVDs from Japan to Australia which I received last week.

I look at the package and I see the words "OPENED FOR INSPECTION BY CUSTOMS". That's not good, I thought to myself. I opened the package and the DVDs were there. But I was expecting them to be brand new and sealed. They were no longer sealed, and they had fingerprints on them. They obviously opened them up and watched it.

Moral of the story? Japanese Junior Idol DVDs are legal but will still raise suspicions.

Proof of legality of Junior Idol DVDs? 3 arguments to support that:

1) I haven't been arrested yet
2) I RECEIVED the DVDs I bought
3) Customs are opening up our Junior Idols DVD and masturbating to it (hypocrites).

This is Australia though. We're not quite as backward as America yet and if I was American and bought these DVDs... who knows.

The thing that sucks though is that my name is probably now on "the list".

Discuss.

They do that with anything coming from overseas I think. My girlfriend sent me a birthday gift from china and I had a little note saying that the box was opened by customs. Opening the actual dvds is a bit rude though. Maybe they wanted to see if anything was hidden inside the case or something, or they were probably fapping to it.

IMO, the whole point of junior idol DVDs is to admire the youthful form in the privacy of your own home and without being accused of being a pedophile pervert from your peers.

Australia might be implementing a mandatory internet filter in which you cannot opt out of.

Apparently, the things that will be filtered are child pornography, snuff and other similar things. What those things are we don't know, because the firewall will have a blacklist and what is contained on that blacklist will not be released to the public.

So basically, things will be banned from the internet and you can't do anything about it.

And this is where the slipperly slope argument begins.

Today, CP will be banned.
Tomorrow, Junior Idols will be banned.
The day after, political dissent will be banned.

Two tiered firewall.

Tier 1, mandatory: All 'illegal' material blocked (http/https only?) I don't think it works on P2P. Possibly uses man-in-the-middle attack to filter https traffic.

Tier 2, opt-out: 'Clean feed', meant for children, similar to what would be used at a school, however probably blacklist based rather than whitelist.

If you're opposed to it, the Minister for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy (Stephen Conroy) accuses you of being a paedophile and pro-child porn.

Oh yes, and at the start of the 'firewall', you were able to completely opt out, now it's changed to only being able to opt out of the second tier.

Just to add, of the filters tested, only 1 met the acceptable 2% slow down, however it had false positives/negatives at a rather high percent (~10%?), the most accurate one in regards to false positives/letting the correct stuff through slowed down the speed by ~86% - That was only with 30 odd computers in a lab I believe but it was hailed as a success, they'll be conducting live testing soon.

ISPs will be given a one off payment to purchase all the equipment required to run it and then they're on their own, Telstra being the cocksuckers that they are are supporting it as it will put extra pressure on their competitors, they won't really be affected as they have their $150/gb excess charges to fall back on to pay for it.

"Last year Australia elected conservative christian Kevin Rudd as their Prime Minister. Rudd dispatched fellow Christfag and now Minister for Broadband Stephen Conroy to censor the Internet. Conroy's original plan to give away copies of Net Nanny (paid for by the taxpayer) failed because no one cared.

Conroy has moved to Plan B: censoring the Internet at the ISP level. Conroy isn't just blocking illegal stuff, but any time of pornography and anything he deems to be 'unsuitable for children'. He originally promised people could opt-out, but now he's backpedaled and said now people can only got on another blacklist where the government blocks out web sites it believes are unsuitable for adults: euthanasia, drugs. ISPs say Conroy's new filters have caused drops in web speed of up to 86%.

Next election isn't for years and Conroy has accused anyone criticising his plan of being a 'child pornographer' and made no apologies for imitating what China has already done. Really. He actually said that. "If people equate freedom of speech with watching child pornography, then the Rudd Labor Government is going to disagree" "

There are groups that are working against them, but a lot of people seem to ignore it since it's not really mainstream and not necessarily 'illegal' with what they are doing. It's kind of a legal loophole since they aren't nude and the videos purpose and intent could be argued. Which is obviously of a bunch of bullshit, it's pretty clear what the true intent of these things are. Keep in mind that there are 'junior idols' out there that are as young as 6. Personally, I would be for banning this kind of shit. It doesn't sit right with me taking a child and forcing them to dress up, sit still, and look like an appealing, attractive object to adult men.

Funny how you don't want children to be "forced" to dress up in cute clothes (they're hardly forced) and yet you want to force your subjective morals on other people.

What hobbies do you like? I'd like to ban it so that you get a taste of your own forcible morality medicine.

They may not be forced in the most literal sense but do you have any evidence to suggest that this isn't exploitative in the slightest?

I am not who you're replying to but I get the impression that the people running these operations aren't the most ethical people and it is still underaged girls selling their body on camera regardless of what they do to it. I don't know much about the idol industry though and I'm only making logical guesses here so can you tell us what you know that refutes this?

I also regulary run the customs gauntlet with my imports but I can say with 100% certainty that my prohibited interest is ethically justified because it doesn't involve any real women and therefore is made at no one's expense.

The burden of proof is on you to prove girls like Saaya Irie has been exploited, not for me to disprove it.

Saaya Irie has been modelling for several years now and I imagine she has a tidy income as well.

Hardly exploitation.

Sorry, I'm still slightly miffed by the fact that yesterday customs changed my brand new and SEALED junior idol DVDs to fingerprint-ridden preowned ones. I paid full retail price for those so the least they could do was refund me part of the cost. Or a written apology "Sorry we thought your DVDs were illegal but they weren't. Thanks for the wank"

>Why is there a burden of proof on me when I clearly stated that I don't know and welcome anything to educate me?

Usually it's best to educate yourself in the topic you want to discuss before you actually start enforcing your morals on others. Wikipedia should be a good start.

>I don't even have a point to prove, I just thought that you might want to educate us on this given that you appear to know what you're talking about?

Again wikipedia should be a good starting point. You can ask me about specific issues though, once you are more familiar with the concepts.

>Besides, I don't see how you can say that there isn't a burden of proof on you when it's very concievable to think that this sort of industry is suspect and probably in need of fact checking?

It doesn't matter what you suspect, the fundamental is innocent until proven guilty, burden of proof on the person making the claim.

Otherwise we'd have people running around everywhere accusing everyone else of "suspect" things and forcing people to prove their innocence.

Oooh, one I don't have, pity it's an iso. And yeah, these videos are made for fapping. You can say they aren't, and there is no concrete proof that they are made for that and you can say it's just my opinion, but seriously, it's hard to think of them for any other purpose. I see people on forums like akiba and kawaii15 or whatever it's called now saying they like these things because they are "cute". When I see a torrent of an 8 year old in a thong bending over with the camera focusing on her ass, I still see the same people saying "oh how cute, will download this teehee". You have to have something wrong with you if you genuinely get these things for the cuteness instead of other actual cute things (there is plenty of idol stuff where they are fully clothed or what not). Now I'm not saying these things are bad or not, but I just don't like people lying about it, trying to hide why they have this stuff. Hide it in real life, sure, but also on the internet where no one knows you anyway? No point.

Saaya's dvds are very tame in comparison to other dvds out there. She has also been in movies and tv shows I think, and was/is in some band (well, girl group). She is well known for the modelling stuff though, I don't know how well she is at acting or singing but I could see her being in either with her looks.
As for Mizui Maki, she isn't 14. There are many girls out there that are in dvds and the cover and websites and what not say they are younger than they are. These dvds are usually racier and sometimes have nipple or genital slips in them. I don't know the law over there but I guess they can get away with claiming someone is younger than they are. I did read on akiba that Mizui Maki was in some av under a different name but I can't remember it. All I remember was a focus on the cut marks on her arms. Must be a fun industry to work in.

Interesting statement to make. Maybe it's the people who find the videos sleazy that have something wrong with them?

You are way over exaggerating the raciness of these videos. Many of them are simple pan and zoom shots in pretty normal positions, there are of course costumes and swimsuits. But seriously come on we used to see this kind of stuff on tv as recently as the 90s of course by 2000 the witch hunt for pedophiles began and peoples irrational fears will make anything into pornography. In the end the intent of these videos are for pleasure be that fapping or just admiring either way doesn't fucking matter because if you can fap to a j-idol video you can fap to a toys-r-us catalog. The content is not the issue yet somehow the intent is well guess what last time I checked we tried not to penalize thought crime.

Child porn (not that this is) possession is a thought crime.

You viewed/downloaded some? Guess what sunshine, you're knicked! What crime was committed by viewing it? None as far as I can tell but in the eyes of the law you're pretty much the same as the person who was 'starring' in front of the camera.
