Just after I wrote my article up on the removal of restrictions for copyright, Japan is intending to lay down the law in terms of regulating the internet. Already, Japan is half a decade behind in terms of the internet technology (they might have wireless and the high speed networks but I'm talking about understanding the web). Having regulations like this will further compel Japan to fall way behind the curve while other countries like the US continue innovating in online media.
Take a look at this old-yaji pictured below. Do you think this guy "gets it?" Do you think that someone like this has any clue about how the internet works?
The internet generation will be the ones to really motivate an propel the next few decades of technologies into the stratosphere, literally. You don't need ancient idiots like this guy representing the thought processes and spirit behind it.
Japan: DO NOT REGULATE YOUR INTERNET. you're already dead in the water when it comes to the technology because of your inability to grasp the fact that most of the technology powering it is from software and coding. And software/code is mostly an English based thing, where you still have ancient ways of teaching and lag behind many other asian countries. If you regulate your internet, you will not only continue to fall behind the curve, you will cause irrevocable damage to sink your economy further into the dust.
