Whether animation / manga / game should be included in banning simple possession of child pornography?
Child pornJapan does not prohibit a simple possession. Therefore, Japan should also prohibit simple possession "Lose! Children porn"The campaign began to be deployed, but as its content exceeds that degree too much, hot debates have been developed around the net, and a number of doubts and problems are pointed out.
· "Japan UNICEF Association" is not "UNICEF"
· The causal relationship between animation / manga / game and sexual abuse to children is unknown
· Even if the child prefers to be over 18 years old
· By prohibiting simple possession, all Japanese will be "reserved for criminals"
So let's organize a number of problems.
■ "Japan UNICEF Association" is not "UNICEF"
First of all, this point is likely to cause misunderstanding. The "Japan UNICEF Association" that submitted this request was not "UNICEF". Agnes Chan is not the ambassador of UNICEF. UNICEF ambassadorKuroyanagitais. The following description of Wikipedia is easy to understand about this.
Japan UNICEF Association - From Wikipedia, "Relationship with UNICEF"
We have concluded a cooperative agreement with the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF, UNICEF) and compiled private contributions from Japan. Japan The UNICEF Association is an organization of private cooperation to the last, it is not an organization under the United Nations (UN) or the United Nations Children's Fund. The United Nations Children's Fund under Japan is the "United Nations Children's Fund Tokyo Office" (UNICEF Tokyo office located in the United Nations University building in Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, Tokyo, and the staff for the UN agencies are "international officials") .
The following page is very detailed about this problem.
Nora Ruri - norakura - The mystery of the Japan Unicef Association
In other words, even if we donate funds to the Japan UNICEF Association, that amount will not reach 100% of the site.
Episode 143: UNICEF and the Japan Unicef Association (July 11) - diary-style whimsical essay
It has been 16 years since Mr. Tetsuko Kuroyanagi became a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador, but until now
It seems there was a story saying that we want the donation to be paid to UNICEF headquarters through the "Japan UNICEF Association".
The intention of Mr. Takako Kuroyanagi was "I want to send the donation you received to the site without wasting 1 yen".
"Japan Committee for UNICEF" collect donations expenses (office expenses, personnel expenses, advertising expenses, direct mail delivery expenses, etc.) because we use as much as 25% (estimation of I), fund-raising amount of money is not received in its entirety all local Hmm.
It is natural that expenses are taken, and it is not accusing it, but my mind that "Because it is doing nice things, is not it nice", those who receive personal information and those who provide personal information also respectfully I would like to receive it.
Probably this is 25%, "According to cooperation provision, up to 25% of the proceeds of fund raising business, greeting card business, and reserved membership fees, subsidies and miscellaneous income of members as activity expenses of the associationThat's it.
It becomes as follows if it makes it easy to understand.
UNICEF: United Nations Subsidiary Body (United Nations Children's Fund)
Japan UNICEF Association: Private organization (foundation)
Tetsuko Kuroyanagi: UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador to the United Nations
Agnes Chan:Ambassador of Japan Association for UNICEF
In other words, the reason why Japan's revision of the child pornography law is requested is not UNICEF, the organization of the United Nations, but the Japanese UNICEF Association, which is a local organization in Japan, is just doing it on its own reason. In order to support this fact, let's see "List of UN agencies in Japan" on UN site.
United Nations Information Center "List of UN agencies in Japan"
Of course, the "UNICEF Japan Association" is not written.
So the "UNICEF Association of Japan" is not a fraud organization that is deceiving the name of "UNICEF" without permission.
About UNICEF Japan Association / UNICEF> About UNICEF Association of Japan
The UNICEF national committee has concluded an official document called "cooperation agreement" with UNICEF that "UNICEF national committee is UNICEF's only representative and promoting UNICEF's interests in the civil society of each country It is a partner of "We stipulate.
What does this mean?Organizations that can use UNICEF logos and namesThat thing. So, even it became a result of misleading, such as to the press and the like a UNICEF face turn turn using the UNICEF logo on the back at a press conference venue as shown in the photograph of the following page, not to any problem Rather, it is self-responsibility of the side who did not know that Japan Association of UNICEF and UNICEF are not the same.
UNICEF signs activities to eradicate child pornography, establishing special site
In other words, it means that it is a line away from something like a fund-raising fraud that became a problem for a while. However, attention is necessary to the point that not wearing the authority of UNICEF in the shade and doing it is not good.
■ Cause relationship between animation / manga / game and sexual abuse to children is unknown
So what is this private organization looking like a United Nations agency saying is as follows.
asahi.com: Japan UNICEF Campaign to Strengthen Child Pornography Regulation - Living
The request form revises the Child Prostitution and Child Pornography Prohibition Act and prohibits the simple possession of child pornography and subjects it to punishment. (2) Also subject to animation, cartoons, game software, etc. (3) We also seek to regulate those pretending to be children above the age of 18 - and so forth.
"Banning the simple possession of child pornography and making it subject to punishment" simply means what to define as child pornography, and even though it has been a problem all over the world, Not requesting "Anime, manga, game software etc are also subject to regulation" request. In the end of the phrase, it is an orphanic runaway that "18 years old and older will also regulate those pretending to be children." It is funny no matter who can see it. If you really want to help children suffering from child pornography, you should not have such a request for incoherent ... ....
By the way, by understanding what kind of goal the UNICEF itself is working towards, the cause of the runaway of the Japan UNICEF Association will be understood. Let's see the following page reported on the page of the UNICEF Japan Association's own page.
There are 138 countries where child pornography possessions are not punished by law
~ International Center for Child Abuse and Child Abuse (ICMEC) From the latest survey report ~
ICMEC, in collaboration with ICPO, one of the world's leading law enforcement agencies, announced the findings in Washington, DC on April 6, 2006. According to it, there are 138 countries in which the possession of child pornography is not a crime, and there are 122 countries where there is no law which regulates distribution of child pornography through computers and the Internet.
In other countries where simple possession of child pornography is not illegal, there are many countries where there is no law that regulates distribution of child pornography through computers and the Internet. If you decide on "majority vote" of democracy, it is surprisingly wonderful to make illegal possession of child pornography illegal. For this reason such facts are ignored when it is reported. result,"Only Japan and Russia do not illegitize child pornography ownership in the main eight countries (G8)Thomas Schieffer's remark by the US Ambassador to Japan was posted on the Yomiuri Shimbun "Issue" on January 30, 2008, and this expression was used endlessly in TV news. However, this is nothing but a kind of trick that does not suit reality, so to speak as it is, without giving the reader of the newspaper or the viewer of the TV the necessary informationMisleadThat is why. Japan UNICEF Association may be trying hard to make their activities easier, but you should think that excessive impression manipulation can not be done in times like this.
It is not UNICEF that silently watches this situation about the current situation that the development of the law which cracks child pornography in such a country is insufficient. We are seeking legal improvement on the following five items.
1. Is child pornography subject to criminal penalty under the current law?
2. Is the legal definition of child pornography included in the current law?
3. Is possession of child pornography stipulated as a crime?
4. Is delivery of child pornography on computers and the internet illegal?
5. Is the Internet service provider (ISP) obliged to report suspected child pornography to law enforcement agencies?
It is only five countries around the world that fulfill all of this, Australia, Belgium, France, South Africa and the United States only. Since Japan is illegal about "1" "2" "4" at the present time, it is actually quite excellent person. So, among the remaining "3" and "5" this time, I started to work from "Is child possession of pornography prescribed as a crime?" .... I can understand the whole picture of this flow more clearly, is not it?
However, "anime" "manga" "game" is not included anywhere in the above five items. The only thing that should be punished is child pornography of live-action photographs generated by the victim. Whether other animation, manga, games, etc. trigger such child pornography is not a matter of first conducting a thorough and objective survey It is only a "infringement of freedom of expression" because it can not prove causality.
As the Nihon Unicef Association also makes it clear on its own page, even for child pornographic images of live-actions actually using children who are not actually animation or manga, it was decided to commit a crime because they saw such images , And the causal relation with contact crime such as such is unknown, it is a very difficult business to prove, but I want the Japanese UNICEF Association and UNICEF to do their best to reduce the damage of existing children by child pornography .
Japan UNICEF Association · Special feature To protect children from child pornography
The exact relationship between seeing child pornography online and committing a contact crime (for actual children) is not clear
In addition, the above page is titled "Manga, animation ... depicting children's sexual exploitation ... why the problem?", And under the title "Dr. Esel · Querle (Cohn Project of Ireland · Cork College Project)" Reported ", but when looking at the bottom," It is partly excerpted from "ECPAT / Stop Child Prostitution Society:" ECPAT Symposium Internet and Child Pornography Damage Report "" and " There are so many people that the UNICEF Association of Japan is doing what he wants to claim making something in the midst of somewhere making a patch of authoritative remarks or the like. At the same time,ECPAT / Stop Child Prostitution SocietyAs far as I saw the site of "I can not confirm the existence of the above report, I could not find a statement that I opposed animation or manga at the moment. This is also a type of impression operation, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is Mislead.
Even if 18 years of age or over prefers children
Also, apart from "child pornography", she seems to decide to "quasi-child pornography" and to illegitimate it. Even looking at UNICEF's request, I can not find anything that made it such an ambiguous idea, but what on earth are you talking about? If this is realized the following may occur.
J-CAST News: Enhancement of Child Pornography Regulations Just to have animation and games
"Even just wearing a costume like a sailor uniform or a maid, there is a fear of getting caught (by the law)"
All the cosplay culture will be a one-shot wreck, and the possibility of a minor's cosplay being out of the event itself can not be denied, naturally the cosplay picture is out by simple possession, inevitably the cosplay is extinct.
For the time being, the pages such as the following that have posted the cosplay photo of "Mangan web" in "Everyday jp" operated by the Mainichi Newspaper are all illegal, and the Mainichi newspaper saves this image in the company database It is supposed to be police investigated by the house, it will be destroyed.

World cosplay summit which is international goodwill in cosplay can not be held in Japan.

It is illegal to welcome you at the cosplay as part of the "Visit Japan Campaign" that the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport conducted at Kansai International Airport.
Kansai Airport: Welcome at Cosplay Japan! Maid and invite foreigners at Gundam (Mantan web) - Everyday jp (Mainichi Shimbun)
That's what, what kind of thing are you thinking about "quasi-child pornography" in the first place?
UNICEF signs activities to eradicate child pornography, establishing special site
Also, in addition to cartoons, comics and games that describe children's sexual appearance and abuse, as well as adult videos that children playing children over 18 years old, also appealed to illegalize as "semi-child pornography".
According to the calling attorney Koji Goto, "semi-child pornography" is "animation, manga, game software, etc, and video that children over 18 years of age play a child." Animation, manga, game software are limited to "realistic things" because it is impossible to say that because a bit of manga draws children's nakedness.
Regarding "I will play a child over the age of 18", such as "You are wearing a sailor uniform, like being indistinguishable from a child," for example, "With such a thing that the age of a performer can not be confirmed, Because I am in trouble ". However, he said, "I think that it will be out of scope for those who are obviously not children."
It is obviously not a democratic idea clearly because it makes it possible to decide as much as possible the side that manages the law by expanding interpretation by this talk,Police stateIt can not help but be said that it is an idea, that is, an idea often seen in the Fascism regime and Communist countries. Clearly out of the question.
Certainly it is obviously necessary to strive to eliminate damage to children by child pornography, because real children actually suffer severe damage and "I do not punish suspicionSpeaking from the principle of "quasi-child pornography", it is unclear which minor is directly affected by the minor, and if indirect damage is to be found, objective evidence and materials are necessary. It is extremely difficult to present such materials. But that does not allow you to ignore other rights for that. It is totally to say that Japan Association of UNICEF asserts its means and purpose are reversed and it is extremely childish and short-circuited. Let's say that the idea itself such as "semi-child pornography" is no longer crazy.
Even though thinking from just having a self contradiction only with a remark on a little interview, I can understand well how difficult it is to be a problem. That is why the Nippon Unicef Association is seeking an easy-to-see solution that is easy to see and it will cause a runaway like this one. As Japan Association for UNICEF, even if laws prohibiting child pornography are made visible, the damage does not diminish, so it is considered that there is considerable "impatience". However, should not you try out the word that it is a different problem from this and "I hurry things in a hurry"?
■ Simple possession forbidding all Japanese to "criminal reserve army"
Let's see what happens when this law of ban on simple possession of child pornography is realized. Simply put,Every Japanese who is connected to the net becomes a "criminal reserve army", and it will not go wrong when the police arrest it.That's it. Let's see in order.
Child pornography browsing, Is the offense of the first offender too heavy? | WIRED VISION
Among the data available on the net, child pornography is one of the few things that can instantly make ordinary people a criminal, but most people do not recognize that fact. Just browsing a specific website at home - even once - will become a criminal in some countries.
As a result, there are no cases of criminal record, and cases are being arrested for those who do not act naive acts on children, and cases are heavily charged for crimes simply by browsing the Web. In some cases, it is registered as a sex criminal and you have to be afraid of the possibility of being pursued through the end of life. That's because there is the Internet.
Actual examples in the United States and the UK where simple possession is forbidden are summarized in the above page and you can find examples like the following.
· A film developer who saw pictures of an infant stuck in a bathtub naked and reported to the authorities, the mother was interrogated
· I thought that carrying a photograph taken before a very old illegalization was a crime
· Attempt to repeatedly attempt to criminal punish artificially created images that actual children are not involved in
· It was arrested and charged with accessing a child pornographic site to refer to autographed writing of child abused experience
In other words, if there is a child pornographic image in a personal computer, any excuse is "waste".
Also, the United States has illegalized the simple possession of child pornographic images, but is there any effect?
A silly kusan - kanjaku - Continuing sequel to think about the child pornography amendment problem
It will be the past data (2003), but the number of child pornography sites ranked first in America (about 10,000), ranked second in Korea (1,300), disseminating a large amount of child pornography There.
In comparison, there were about 160 cases in Japan at that time.
It is often said that "Japan is the worst eighth place child porn superpower", but if you look at the facts it is such a thing.
The population of Japan isApproximately 120 million peopleIn the United StatesApproximately 300 million peopleSo it is unlikely that the difference is due to the ratio of the population. In other words, even if prohibiting simple possession of images, it is not possible to eradicate child pornographic images from the net.
In addition, it is unknown because the number has not appeared, "Yahoo! JAPAN - Security Feature 2008 SpringAccording to the January 2007 issue of Central Public Prosecution published in "
However, according to the NGO "ECPAT Sweden", the host destinations of the site which opened in April 2005 from August 2005 are [1] US [2] Japan [3] Russia - in order.
As usual the United States remains the top ranking, but since we could not find where this material is in the first place in the first place, doubt remains in authenticity.
Also, in the United States, there is a case that it is not illegal for a simple possession of "pornographic images that children seem to sex like children", rather it is a constitutional violation.
US Supreme Court "approves" virtual child pornography | WIRED VISION
On behalf of the majority opinion, Judge Anthony M. Kennedy stated that the two provisions of the Child Pornography Prevention Act are far too extensive and constitutional breach.
The provisions of the Child Pornography Prevention Law are those that are advertised to give "the impression that a minor is involved in what appears to be an underage" among outright sexual expressions Prohibited. On the other hand, pornographic industry group "freedom of speech" appealed.
The reason why such a judgment came out is that there are times when there are scenes that "children seem to have sex" from the necessity of the script even in movies seriously made up in American movies For. In that case it is because even if one scene of a movie is seen as being illegal. As an example, he won the four sectors of the Academy Director's Award, Academy Supporting Actor Award, Academy Atsushi Award, Academy Editing Prizetraffic"And others are mentioned.
Based on this ruling, the definition in the United States is more strict.
New bill prohibiting virtual child porn traverses the US House | WIRED VISION
The bill passed this time narrows the definition and bans only computer images that are "indistinguishable" from real child pornographic images. In addition, visual pornography dealing with boys and girls before puberty forbidding anything that falls within the category of "obscene" defined by the Supreme Court, including line drawing, manga, painting and sculpture .
About the problem of "simple possession"Request for revision of "Child prostitution child pornography prohibition law"The following three types of comics are very easy to understand.
In addition, when a simple possession is illegalized in Japan, naturally all the images acquired in the past have been described as "Discarded before the enforcement of the lawYou will have to do. Even so, just do not discard it.
Do purchasers and administrators of child pornography undergo seizure seizure? - Ozumura Toru Attorney's View
In addition, in order to compete with proof of a simple possession case of child pornography without child pornography, it is probably to be evident that things that ceased possession before disposition = discarding (because it can not be transferred).
Child pornographic images of live-action photography may possibly be such things, and in America and elsewhere scandalous scandals have happened and it is not clear whether there is much effect or not,"Quasi-child pornography" means "animation, cartoons, game software, etc. and videos that people over the age of 18 play a child"I am struggling to understand whether the law is necessary.
In addition, although it is an exercise to make this simple possession illegal, this is not a runaway only of the Japan UNICEF Association, it is also a request from the US State Department.
(PDF file: 2.13 MB) Special committee on youth problems (3) Responding to child prostitution / child pornography w Problems on child pornography
In the 2007 Trafficking of Health Report released by the US State Department, the fact that purchase and possession of child pornography is legal in Japan is a factor of global demand for child pornography, criminalizing the purchase and possession of child pornography We are seeking legal amendment subject to punishment.
Because the situation is different from the last time, there is a high possibility that a bipartisan legislative legislator will be held, and each industry related to animation, manga, and games, if considering the future business, is full of such problems For the campaign, do not decide to ignore it as "not related to ourselves", and should we do what we can do now.
Finally, I will write down the words of the German pastor Martin Knemeler, protesting Hitler and sent to the camp.
When the Nazis suppressed Communists, I was not a Communist and did not act.
The Nazis subsequently suppressed socialists.
I am not a socialist I did not protest.
Nazis expanded the circle of oppression to students and Jews and finally oppressed the church.
The pastor's standing up.
It was already late.
"It's not for anyone to protest, for myself."
