I was recently in Japan, and while there I tried to access Tasvideos.org from a computer in a library. It was blocked. This is the message I got:

このページは「i-FILTER」によりブロックされました。 URL http://tasvideos.org/ ブロック理由違法ソフト・反社会行為

Translation:

This page is blocked by i-FILTER. URL: http://tasvideos.org/ Reason for block: Illegal software, Antisocial behaviour

I guess someone could get the incorrect idea about us sharing copyrighted material... but antisocial behaviour? :o A complaint is probably in order, but I doubt anyone at i-FILTER would care.

Well that was surprising. To quote someone, "if something gets censored in Japan, it has to be really sick".

Agreed. And in all likelihood, it becomes the see-no-evil, hear-no-evil "英語をわかりません" thing.

They don't mind tentacles raping schoolgirls, but when we start raping their precious video games, they take offense.

He's been sharing antisocial behaviour, it's illegal.

Well he keeps linking to some site where you can download the mp3s from some albums called "my voice" and "my words". This is clearly a flagrant violation of copyright.

How fleeting are all human passions compared with the massive continuity of ducks.

That doesn't stop it from being a flagrant violation of copyright. Didn't you know that distributing music for free is illegal?

I'm wondering what laughing_gas thinks antisocial means.

Does argumentative count as antisocial?

No, of course not. What kind of weird and sick question is that?

Excellent, I'm "social" then.

I think complicated words that noone should have to understand are anti-social.

I think intrinsic words that no one should have to complicate are illegal, just like MP3 format. You wouldn't steal a car, would you??

I don't wanna go on a rant here but America's foreign policy makes about as much sense as Beowolf having sex with Robert Fulton at the first Battle of Antetum. I mean when a neo-conservative defenstrates it's like Raskalnakov filibuster dioxymonohydrostinate AMIRITE Edit: In other news, on the internet, you don't have to steal cars. You can eat those cars, like in a library.
