    Is it me, or are all these Japanese companies that are known for making great products now making dick moves?

      The Sony rootkit thing happened nearly 20 years ago. They’re not just now making dick moves.

      In a way Japan is both innovative and conservative when it comes to technology and business. There are still business practices going on there which have been phased out in “the west”. If you look at the Japanese music industry for example it’s both 21st century and stuck in the 1990s for some reason.

        I had to learn how to use a Fax when working in Japan. Yeah faxing is still a thing there.

            Fax, like POTS has a legitimate purpose. It’s a lot easier to intercept and/or edit an email in transit than a fax.
