Arguments are made and some regulation must be set to prevent irresponsible information flowing all over the internet. there is a bbs community called "2 channel" and the arguments and comments posted there are causing many problems. since users do not need to show any of their personal information (even your handle name), authors do not have to take responsibility of what they say there. personal information gets posted, and many personal blogs were attacked just for fun. i myself experienced such attacks from those "no named" users and once i had to close my site. it agree that there shouldnt be many censorships, however "freedom of speech" do not mean that people can do whatever they want. it is more the moral issue which is causing the problems on the internet, in japan. in japan, problems concerning about the internet is becoming apparent as most of people became able to access and use internet. im not really aware of the situation about open source and softwares in japan, but i ofter hear that “freedom of speech” is being used to justify what they say at the cyberspace.
