Japan trying to stop manga piracy

The Wall Street Journal reports on how Japanese publishing companies are trying to put a stop to websites that post pirated "scanlations" of manga books without permits from the publishers.

Here's a related story of at least one publisher trying to work with "scanlators" to build a legal and financially beneficial relationship.

About me

  • I'm Avi Green
  • From Jerusalem, Israel
  • I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.
