- For one reason or another, all Japanese image sites hosted on Japanese servers (Image archives, pixiv, futaba clones, artist sites, doujin listings, etcetera...) have begun adopting a policy of blocking foreign IP's from access.

- Japanese p2p networks and nodes have begun automatically declining foreign IP's and suspicious (proxy denier) IP's.

- Social sites such as mixi begins to only accept Japanese users. Certain online stores such as Tora no Ana and Comi Services and Yahoo! Japan Auctions have declined foreign orders and middle man services.

Would this affect you in anyway? Would you care at all?

No

1. Get proxy
2. Go to site
3. ???
4. PROFIT!

japan is racist we all know this, I do care because there are not enough distributors of Japanese merchandise in the states, so sometimes I have to turn directly to japan for such things.

Nope. I'd just proxy and spoof as usual.

Some of their sites already block certain proxies, although they are the very obvious ones. (JP, RU, DE...) If people began to keep relying on proxies then they would also be clogged as all hell.

This is a likely scenario once the Jap government clamps down on internet control like the Chinks.

They could also double proof it by requiring registration for certain sites like the ones mentioned in OP such as MIXI, PIXIV and so on, and requiring a Japanese Social Security # equivalent and valid address as well like what the Koreans do.

Come to think of it, a lot of their image boards already do this although frankly I'm not sure why since their point is to propagate the images being posted.

One technique for countering proxies is not blocking IP's at all, instead ask a question that only a native Japanese speaker would be able to answer and then a link would appear that goes to the main site, whose URL (As well as the question) changes every week.

they are pretty creative at this

this will probably cut down a large number of weeabo exports (lol export...not the right word but w/e) but it won't compltely stop it anyway

plenty of stuff will continue to get uploaded to non japanese sites by japanese users, and those will be accessible to all

They could very well set up their own registration -only imageboard for foreign access of JP-only material and have one hell of a monopoly. Maybe even ask payment for it.

It wouldn't affect me too much. I'd shake my head at their continued resolve to isolate themselves again from the world, and laugh at how they don't realize that the reason why their economy has been stagnant for the last 15 or more years is because they continue to isolate and themselves to the degree that they do. If the world were a house party, eveyone would be downstairs drinking and having fun, while Japan would be your bitchy antisocial roommate that's locked herself in her room and cuts herself with a razor because she's lonely and can't figure why.

>> No.167467

If i were an owner of a japanese site, I would block the foreign faggots too. Fucking weeaboos.

>> No.167473

Japan's well on its way towards implementing this isolationist bullshit, so it wouldn't effect me any more than it already is.
