Let’s start again.
Sugar baby in Iita.
So she was essentially
arrested twice and I had
said I wanted to get her
book and read her book,
but it was very hard to find her book
because essentially her book is illegal.
It’s one of the reasons she’s been
arrested was producing this book.
There is a YouTube
channel called Japanalysis.
Japan plus analysis put together.
It’s very, very good and he, so this is it.
And it’s an engineer’s
Japan is week to week.
So often as things are
developing, I can talk
about them, but I don’t get the
conclusion because I’ve moved on.
Japanalysis is a very,
very good channel on
YouTube where the guy
talks about the whole topic.
So I’ll have to finish first.
It might mean you
have to wait till the topic
is finished months and
months and months later,
but he went in through
the arrests and the
story and he actually
came up and must have read
the book or found the
book or found something
about the book because he actually
came up with read each on system.
So I just want to get
that out there because
I was interested in
how is this so successful
because I wouldn’t have
given her that much money,
but then it turns out
that I’m not the target.
So the very first part
of her system is choosing
the right target and
she said, choose men
essentially who have no life,
which makes a lot of sense.
She said, choose a man who has no
family who just works, who has no hobbies.
I have a lot of hobbies.
I have a very rich outside life.
So I am not going to succumb to D.D. Chan’s
charms very easily, whereas if your life
is relatively empty
and that’s what she’s
saying, find a guy who
was a very empty life.
And then you can fill
up that life with hope
and then strip him down
and take all his money.
So the right target was important.
No life, no family, no hobbies.
You text him every day.
So this is, again, if
you’ve chosen the right
person, they’ve had
no life outside of work.
You are now the most exciting,
most interesting aspect of his life.
And he wants to keep that
going as much as possible.
You have to send him a text message
every morning and every evening.
So you want to say, good morning.
I just woke up.
I hope you have a great day and good night.
Texting you is the best part of my day.
I’m just back and forth,
just keep that going.
And she said for months,
because you want to
build that relationship and make
him essentially fall in love with you.
Step two is stop sending a
message is for two weeks.
And then he will start to panic.
He’ll start to like panic.
Are you okay?
Are you hurt?
Are you in trouble?
Then you just give him
very cryptic messages back.
I’m in trouble.
I don’t want to talk about it.
I’m sorry.
And then he wants to white night you.
This is actually what she was going for is
to find a man who’s desperate enough to
want to save someone
else and feel like a hero.
And I get this so manipulative.
I mean, that is what scamming all
is all about is manipulating people.
But it’s really, really rough.
Then you want to give him some vague.
So he’s going to push you for information.
How are you in trouble?
What’s going on?
And then you give him
some vague information.
You go like, you know, I
had trouble with money.
And you don’t say what
the actual trouble is.
And then he’ll push you.
If he offers you a solution, can’t
you get money for your parents?
Like, I’m too embarrassed.
I’m too shy.
I can’t do this.
anything I don’t know
what to do. Then he will
ask probably how much
do you need? You say,
you know, 300,000 yen.
600,000 yen. A million
yen, something like
that. He will offer you
the money and you
have to refuse. Then he’ll
offer again and again and
again. Because he wants
to save you. He is at
this point in love with
you as a person and
you accept his offer. And
then you, you know,
all you’ve saved my life,
you’ve saved me from
getting pushed into
prostitution. You’ve
saved me from being beat
up by the yakuza or
something. You’ve saved
me from some vague
threat that doesn’t exist in
the first place. Then
repeat. You’re basically
manipulating him so
that he will sacrifice
himself for you. But
because again, you’ve chosen
someone who you’ve now
become the most important
thing in his life, he
doesn’t want to lose that.
So it’s pretty effective.
That’s actually the
saddest part. I have
to say, like, as far as
a system goes, choosing
your target, how to play
the target, how to keep
it going for as long as
humanly possible. He
did a pretty good job.
Unfortunately, it was some
of the other girls who followed
her system who didn’t
follow the system correctly.
And this is to me the
most interesting part.
One of the other people
who used her system
instead of like saying
thank you and then keeping
the system going, would
say get the money and then
go like, oh, I’ve been
kidnapped and then just stop.
So that if you say
something that is dramatic
as that, the guy’s
going to go to the police,
he goes to the police.
And then maybe he realizes
he’s been scammed
or the police are like,
no, she hasn’t been
kidnapped. But that’s when
it became obvious.
There’s a system at play.
So we have to then
disavow people of that. You’ve
been scammed. Let’s
go try to get your money
back. Let’s get this
person arrested. And those
women, when they’re like,
how did you do this figure
out the system? They
immediately wanted to shift
blame to did he, so I
bought this book online and I
followed her system.
That’s where all the trouble
came from. So that’s
the system. It sounds like
the best way to defend
yourself is to get a hobby.
Don’t be a victim by
being so lonely, which is a
pretty tough thing to say
in modern society. If I’m
being really honest,
that could be really tough.
And I don’t want to shame
the people who’ve fallen
for this because all they
did was have hope and that
is the saddest thing to try to take
away from them. So no jokes there.
The government, so if you remember for the
DD John story from the couple weeks ago,
she got arrested and she
actually took down some
hosts with her because
the hosts were actually
getting the money. She
would steal money from these
guys, go to host clubs
and then use that money
for the hosts. The hosts
knew it was coming from
a shady source, which
meant they should have
actually been refusing
the money, but they
weren’t. They were taking
it and then one even like
sent a message is
like, oh, if DD John goes
down, I’m going down
with her. Ha ha, yeah, dude,
that’s exactly what
happened. But this is
actually spurred the
government to taking steps to
pay more attention to
host club business practices
because they have been
exploiting young women,
creating debt and
it causes trouble. It’s
interesting because this
is the flip side. You had
DD John exploiting these
men and then they go
and say, yeah, the
problem is also she’s giving
her money to these host
club guys who are also
exploiting women,
technically probably exploiting
the DD John because
the sum total of money she
had collected was over
a million dollars. If she
had been sensible, just
put that money away. I
know she’s not paying
taxes on it or anything.
But if she put that money
away, she could have
lived a very comfortable
life for the rest of
her life and not done
any work ever again. But
instead, she was giving her
money over to these hosts
who were just keeping
the money. I don’t know
what’s going on there.
But realistically speaking,
they were exploiting the
DD John who was exploiting
these lonely men. It
was a very parasitic
system in place. So what
we found out though is
the hosts, so the host
club is not responsible for
what the hosts do. They’re
essentially independent
contractors working in the
host club. This independent
contractor thing has
come up a couple times over
the last couple weeks
because I was introduced to
it via the anime system
where these very low
paid anime artists have
to go independent and
they’re going to have
to pay their own taxes
and file taxes and it
takes up all this time and
they’re actually going
to get paid less overall.
Last week, there’s an
English teaching company
called Gabba that they
released a statement that
if you miss a class, like
you have to cancel an
English class, you the
teacher have to pay 6,000
yen. Now, you might
have five, six classes a day.
So if you miss a day,
that could be essentially
in total, you could end up
owing the company money
for missing a couple of
days of work, which seems
illegal, but it’s because
they’re not teachers,
they’re not employees.
They’re independent
contractors. So these this
gig work in the independent
contractor system in Japan
seems to have gotten way,
way worse. I think the
intent was for the government
to force companies into
hiring people as full-time
employees, whereas
now they’re looking at
loopholes in way to
exploit independent workers
who are just, I mean,
that company looks like
it’s about to fall
apart, if I’m being really
honest. Host clubs have
worked this way independently
fine because they’re
there to exploit people.
That’s clearly the whole
purpose of the host club
system, but the individual
hosts are responsible for
the women’s spending. When
a woman goes into a host
club and spends money,
the host will collect the
money. So if they say
like, we’re going to take it
on as a debt, that’s when
they start forcing women
to go into also that
is terrible. Yes, I mean,
when we do need news
Japan, we do a lot of
terrible stories. It’s all
about exploitation and
terrible stuff because
let’s face it, that’s
entertainment, but if
we’re going to be honest,
if you know about these
kind of things, if you know
about these scams, you
won’t, you’re less likely
to fall for them. So I’m
not saying I’m doing a
public service because I
am doing this primarily for.
entertainment, but I
five, six years ago, I got
some of my cryptocurrency
scammed because I fell
into like a Ponzi scheme
kind of thing. So I lost
a little bit of money.
It wasn’t obviously like
life ruining for me,
but if I’d known about
the scam or if I’d known
more about the things,
I wouldn’t have fallen
for the scam. So that’s my
actual hope because I
put out an episode of an old
podcast about that
scam, hoping that if anyone
else heard the same
thing, they wouldn’t get
scammed. This is really
fun scam, the sugar, baby
scam. If you know about
it, you’re less likely to
fall about it. If a woman
goes to a host club and
you know they’re purposely
trying to manipulate you
to spend too much money to go into
debt, you’re less likely to fall for it.
Like I think host clubs
in hostist clubs are fine.
If you want to go and
pay for an evening to have
someone talk to you.
Oh no, not the host clubs.
Well, it’s not the host
clubs themselves. It’s the
hosts. So this is what
I’m talking about, the
independent contractor
thing. That separates the
business from the
independent contractor. The
independent contractor is
the one who’s going to try to
abuse you to get to you
to spend as much money
as humanly possible.
They probably pay a fee to
the host club to work
there. So they probably, I
don’t like, they’re not
getting a salary or anything.
So the more they abuse
you for money, the more they
can make. And that’s a
big deal. Because it puts
them in a position where
if they can force you
into debt, they’ll do it.
And then how do you pay
off that debt? The next
step is to some sort of
sex work. They’re forcing
to prostitution or doing
pornography or something
like that. That is not
the end goal, but their
hope is that they can then
make money off you as a
passive income. So you need
to pay off this debt.
You need to do this stuff.
You need to make up for it. And I’m going
to get I have contacts in the underworld.
in shady sex practices
that I can get you
to do. And I’ll make
money off that as well.
Yeah, host clubs are
gross. If you come to
Japan, again, if you
know what you’re in for,
you could control your
spending and know what
you’re in for. If you
understand that system,
you’d be fine. On top
of the overpriced alcohol.
Yes. I mean, that is again
where they make their
money. So they’re trying
to get you to buy the
50,000 yen bottle of champagne
champagne service. And
then like, oh, yeah, let’s
buy it for everybody in
the club. So that’s like
six, seven bottles. And
now you’re like a million
yen in debt for that
one evening. I mean,
just going out, alcohol’s
expensive. I’ve now
gotten to the point in my life
where it’s like, hey, do
you want to go out for
drinks? I’d be like,
I’d rather buy a bottle
of alcohol and stay
home. If we’re going to
drink, we should do it at
home. And we could even
do it like online. We’ll
just drink together online,
which is, I mean, that’s the new
parasocial relationships that people have.
Most of my close friends
are now Internet friends
that I don’t see very
often in person, but.
realistically speaking,
we talk all the time.
Drinking out sound
scary in Japan, it’s not. If
I’m being really, really
honest, most of the time,
you’re going to go to
a regular is a guy host
clubs. I would say yes,
host clubs would be scary,
host is clubs would be
scary. I’ve never gone into
one because I’ve never
felt like I need to pay
someone to talk to
me. That’s the issue that
we’re actually talking
about, where if you pay
someone to talk to you,
they’re going to be into
you. And then you get that
sort of positive dopamine
feeling while you’re
drinking. I’ve never needed
that because I know how
to talk to people. I have.
the ability to have
conversations. When I first
came to Japan, I go to
Isakaya, which is just like a
normal place where
you have food and drinks.
You have to pay for
their drink too. Yes, yes,
you have to pay for
everything. And I bet
they’re not even drinking.
There is a very common
trick where what they do
is they get you drunk. So
like, oh, I’ll have a gin
and tonic and it’s just,
it’s just water. So they’re
not drinking as much as
you are to get you drunkers
that you’ll spend more.
money and you know,
less inhibitions and whatnot.
It’s all scam again. I think
if you know it’s a scam,
you could go even go in
and enjoy that experience
safely. But you’d also
know that they’re cheating
you. They’re lying to
you. If you know all that,
it’s fine. Again, I just
think the awareness is the
issue more than anything
else. NHK, I have a very
sour relationship with
NHK, and it’s because I
don’t believe they
provide a service. This is
the government run
broadcasting system in Japan.
And very technically,
if you have a television
or anything that
can receive a signal,
like a TV signal, you’re
supposed to pay these
guys money. But I’ve
always felt their programming
is crap. So I’ve never
entered into that contract.
Now, legally speaking,
if you don’t enter into
the contract, they can’t
make you pay, but there
is also this like loop
round around where it’s
like, if you have
something that should that
can receive a signal,
you should enter into that
contract and then pay if you’re a good
citizen. But if you don’t make that contract,
there is no punishment.
Well, they’ve been trying
to change that for
years. And they get into
harassment tactics.
They like show up at your
house all the time.
Okay. So, Rho said, yes,
is it mandatory? Very
technically, yes, but
there’s no punishment
for not entering into the
contract. The problem
is if they can prove that
you have a device
that receives the signal,
they can force you
into the contract. Now,
lots of people will not
pay for NHK. One of the
old scandals was they
found out that the sort of
top level executives at NHK
were spending the money
on parties and stuff.
They’re like, why am I
paying money so that this
guy can go to a party or
hold a party? And then,
you know, misuse of funds
was a pretty common
problem. My actual complaint is
you’re saying you want
me to pay, let’s say, 2000
yen a month every month
for television that I do not
watch. I would rather
have the option that I don’t
get to see NHK. But
because it’s not paying for
NHK, it’s paying for
the receiver signals, kind
of like what they do in
England. If your TV can
receive the BBC, you have
to pay the BBC. They’ve
created a new system
this year. I didn’t get
a lot of details about
that, which is too bad.
But after multiple calls
and notices and writing
and visits to your
house, they will sue you.
So, they’re right now
suing three households,
which isn’t very many,
but what they’re trying
to do is set a precedent
that is possible.
Going forward, we will
continue to do what is
necessary toward achieving
further contributions.
Oh, fair contributions.
So I wrote fair
incorrectly. That’s why
I was getting confused.
Now, they’re saying
fair contributions, but I
think opting out is
fair. And that’s the bit
they’re sort of missing. They’re saying
everyone has to pay to keep NHK afloat.
I do hope they fail
with their… Well, this is,
I don’t think they
will fail with their case.
Because if they can
prove that the person has a
TV that can receive the
signal, then the person
technically mandatory
has to join. I want to find
a way, because I have
two monitors I’m looking at
right now, my smartphone,
my wife has a smartphone.
We have a TV downstairs.
We actually have
like multiple devices that
technically can receive
the NHK. I have just
never entered into the
contract. But if they
came after me like this,
yeah, I’d have to pay
for a thing I don’t want.
And that’s the bit I
don’t like being forced to
pay for something I
actually never wanted in the.
first place. An SDF, so
the self-defense force. This
is the Japanese military
suspended in exercise after a
member flipped off the
media. So they had an
incident where a guy kind
of lost it on the shooting
range and actually shot
his teacher, gun violence
being very unusual in
Japan. This was a massive
story. But this is the
next day. So the media is
all outside the shooting
range. And so this guy,
he’s like on the truck on
the way and he just flips
him in the bird. And
then that’s not me flipping
you the bird to the audience.
I’m just demonstrating
what flipping the bird
looks like. So if you
don’t know what it means,
now you know what I mean
when I say flip bird.
Anyways, so he’s just like,
I don’t want this media
attention. I don’t think
this is, you know,
cool. He flips them off.
Then he goes to the
shooting range. It does
obviously his drills or his
exercises. And then when
he’s leaving, he flipped
them off again, which
is kind of, I actually
find that the funny part.
So then they bring him
in. This is now televised.
His like CEO or
whatever brings him into a
room and like shows in
the video and goes, did you
flip him off? And he
goes, yeah, he admitted to
doing it, which I actually
thought was really funny
because it would have been
amazing if he had denied.
Like, no, that wasn’t
me. I didn’t flip him off.
That’s a deep fake, which
we’re going to be talking
about later. So on the
other side of the exact same
coin, there was a 97 year
old man who hit a truck
and then people called
the police. And the police
arrive and they’re like,
hey, you know, pull over,
get out of the car. What
the old man does is he
accelerates and he hits
a building. And then the
police go up to the window
and like, hey, you know,
you’ve hit a truck.
You’ve now hit a building,
get out of the car.
And then what does he
say to them? He goes,
I wasn’t driving a car.
I love it. I love that you
can literally be sitting
in a car that has just
hit a truck in a building,
look a police officer
dead in the face and go, I
didn’t do it. That takes
just balls. I wouldn’t
have the balls to do
that. But I guess 97, maybe
he just forgot. I do now,
Japan being an aging
society, I do have
lots of opinions on older
people. I actually now
think like there should be an
upper limit for how long,
like you should certain
age, you should get
your license revoked or
have to pass a test
every year or something. I
know that my skills at
driving have already dropped
and I’m not even that
old yet. I think he thinks
he can get away with
it. I absolutely agree
he thinks he can get
away with it if he just
does denial denial denial.
But too many people
saw him and I bet there were
cameras that saw the thing as well.
Basically the rest of the
show is AI and YouTube.
Police arrested man
in his 20s for posting
lewd images of a track
and field athlete. So he’d
be like, wow, this guy
got this track and field.
athlete to take off or
close. He took pictures
and they posted online.
That’s revenge porn,
maybe, which is illegal
in Japan. That’s actually
not what he did. How
did he get the image? He
took pictures of the
athlete and then had AI
replace her top with just
bare breasts. What do you
actually get in trouble
for? Because he didn’t
take pictures of this
woman illegally. Actually,
he did. They did have
a story like a year ago
or something where they
wanted to get, you know,
basically track and field
events. They seem to
attract a lot of like gross
dudes who take pictures.
So I think what they want
to do was stop photography
at sporting events.
That seemed like it was
like a thing that was
going through. So this guy
still managed to get some
pictures of some athletes.
He ran him through the
computer and then he
posted them online. He’s
being held on defamation
charges. So that’s an
interesting thing. It’s
not like illegal photography
or, yeah, I guess
defamation would be it.
So you’re disparaging the
image of this person by
posting what seems to be.
nude photos, perhaps
sexual things that the
person is not agreed
to has not done. So yeah,
you’re defaming them as a person. There is
a possibility they haven’t proven it yet,
but of course, I think
it’s already true. He’s
posted 100 images of up
to 70 different individuals.
And I noticed what I get AI ads. This
has been happening so much in the West.
It’s happening everywhere.
Any country that has
access to computers
has kind of stopped having.
It’s just happening
everywhere. Yeah. And like I
said, that’s the rest of
the show today is just all
these kind of stories.
The prime minister last
week, a deep fake came
out of the prime minister
and they changed his
mouth and had an AI do his
voice. So this guy had
an AI learn the prime
minister’s voice. Then
he could type in what he
wanted them to say and
then he had another AI
deep fake his face so
that his mouth moved with
the words. And he had
the prime minister tell.
some dirty jokes. This of
course went newsworthy
because he’s like, Oh,
look at how dangerous
AI is. Look at how
dangerous deep fake is. We’re
not going to be able to
trust anything anymore.
It is a very serious
question. The thing is, the
guy said this only took
him an hour to make it.
So to have the prime
minister change his face,
make him say some
dirty things, have the AI
replicate his voice, took
about an hour in total,
which that is the scary
part because the one
they’re talking about, the video they’re
talking about is pretty obviously fake,
but that’s because the
guy didn’t put that much
effort into it. He only
was like playing around with
these programs for an
hour. He said it was just a
joke. I didn’t think it
would cause such a stir,
but it actually brought
a lot of media attention
to AI and deep fakes.
And now that the in the
prime minister has to
like actually come out and
say like, no, I didn’t
say those dirty jokes.
The prime minister we
have right now, because she
is quite boring. He wouldn’t
have said those jokes.
anyways. If he did, I’d
actually be way more interested
in him as a person, but
realistically speaking,
he didn’t make those
jokes. And he actually had
to come out and deny
it. And then they had to
like prove that it was
deep fake. If you watch
the video, it’s pretty
clearly not real, but two,
three hours of work, that
would change everything all
in one moment. It might
actually look really good.
A 25 year old YouTuber
was arrested for defamation.
Deformation has come
up a couple times. It
seems like with these AI
programs and posting things
online, defamation is
the charge you’re going to.
get in Japan. That’s Rose
made a good point. Old
people wouldn’t be
able to tell a difference.
Yes, because they’re
not going to be paying that
much attention. They
don’t realize that AI is
capable of doing these things. They don’t
realize that maybe AI can copy a voice.
It would be really
easy for AI to copy my
voice because all
they’d have to do is grab.
I think we’re at 280
episodes of Ninja News Japan.
I got Seamick B probably
there’s like 80 episodes
of that. I got Montana
L.D. Ablo. There’s like 160
episodes of that. Plug
all that into an AI. They
be able to replicate like
my voice, my Cadence,
my the word choices I
make easily because there’s
just so much data for
the AI to you. So it’d be
really easy to do that.
Deep faking my face because
I got this stupid beard.
I guess that actually, I
don’t know if that would
make it harder or easier.
But I bet because the
beard obscures part
of my face would
actually be easier overall.
Not that I’m worried about it. No one’s
going to come after me anytime soon.
Anyways, this 25-year-old
YouTuber was a rest of
her defamation. He claimed
a 15-year-old girl in a
21-year-old male were
plotting to kill him. The
father of these two youths
saw this online and went
to the police and said
like, “Dude, he’s just out
there saying that my kids
are going to plan to kill.
him. There’s got to be
something we can do about
that.” The YouTuber
was arrested and he said,
“He did not deny
that the plot or that he
had made it, but he
said, I did not intend to
defame anyone, which
I think is probably not
true. I think if you’re
going around saying,
these people want to murder me. You are
defaming their character.” And this is the
interesting thing, all this
Internet stuff. There’s
no laws in place that
are Internet specific.
And this is a big problem
that’s going to be in
all the countries all
around the world as this
becomes more and more
common as issues. What is the
actual charge we’re going
to make? I think we’re going
to have to come up with
some new laws and some new
terminology for defamation
is fine because it’s
lying on the Internet.
But what punishments go
along with defamation
would be the interesting part
of what’s coming up
next? Because that’s going
to be the next thing
is as countries decide.
what is the punishment
for defaming people
on the Internet? What
is the punishment for.
deep faking someone’s
face without their permission?
What is the punishment
for making it look like a
girl is in a pornography
once she actually isn’t?
These are all different
levels of defamation,
which are very, very
interesting to me.
Should it be the same
like liable or slander?
I mean, those are all
fall under the defamation
umbrella. So I’m thinking, no, I’m thinking
like deep faking needs its own law, like
manipulating someone’s
face to make it look like they
did something is a step
above defamation. That’s
not just slander. You’re
trying to recreate a lie.
You’re trying to, it’s a
former fraud. So maybe
it’s a Internet fraud scheme
of some sort like that.
I’m just saying like
we’re going to need some
new laws in place that
take into account what you
can do on the Internet. So
if someone came out with
a fake episode in
Engineers, Japan where I just
said like racist stuff the
whole time, that’s defaming
my character, but also
you’re manipulating the viewer,
you’re manipulating my
face without my permission.
So all of those need
to be taken into account
in some way. So
that’s why I’m saying I
think there should be
some new laws in place.
But last story of the
day, I think nothing will
happen until a very high
profile popular person
gets defaked. But I think
that’s actually the two
stories ago, the guy deep
faked the prime minister,
because of course it’s
going to be easy to grab
video of the prime
minister. So the more that
happens, the more likely
you are to get laws. I
think again, like like I
said, no one’s coming after
me anytime soon. I mean
deep faked well enough.
But yeah, also my point,
if you’d put instead of
just doing it for an hour,
sort of clearly the kid
was just messing around.
But if you put in like
a week’s worth of work,
it would look perfect. If
this kid was capable of
doing one simply in an hour,
imagine if you’d put
like a week’s worth of
work to make it like
really, really perfect.
It would be convincing to
me as someone who doesn’t
actually like have a deep
deep understanding of.
AI and stuff. But this is
something I didn’t know
about. There’s a whole
subsection of YouTube in
Japan called the Citizens
Arrest YouTuber. There
was one story I didn’t
really get into it because
there wasn’t much about
it. There was like this
train otaku nerd guy
taking pictures of trains. And
then this girl came up
and started accusing him of
being problematic because
he had a camera. And he
actually was like, I
am just going to stand
where the security can
camera can see me so that
there is video evidence
that I haven’t interfered
with anyone. But the
kid was inspired by a
Citizens Arrest YouTuber,
which apparently is
a whole thing in Japan
I didn’t know about.
A Citizens Arrest YouTuber
has had his account
banned for harassment.
The ban is permanent.
And so this guy actually
had quite a big audience.
He’s losing 1.5 to 2
million yen a month.
To make that very
clear, the average annual
salary in Japan is 4
million yen. So this guy was
making a year’s worth
of salary in two or three
months every month
from his YouTube channel.
That hurts me a little
bit if I’m being honest. He
then said, okay, you’ve
banned my channel. He started
complaining about that.
It’s permanent. I can’t
get my channel back.
It’s really unfair. YouTube’s
unfair. Everything’s
unfair. So he said, I’m
going to join a YouTube
group called Kento,
a Kenzo. The leader of Kenzo then
turned around really quickly and went,
nah, you’re not. And he
made him delete the post
on Twitter. So now the
guy says, I’m going to
try to get a job as a host
because again, he’s clearly
tapped into the manipulative
aspect of society.
He’s like, I can abuse
people and video it and
then people will watch
my YouTube videos and I’ll
make money. He’s like,
well, what’s the next step
down from that? I’ll
be a host started out at
the beginning of the
episode talking about how
manipulative hosts are.
He said, look, I am the least
liked YouTuber in Japan
club owners. Please get
into contact with me. I
will continue my influencing
practices and that will
bring people into your
club. I did like that he
didn’t feel like he should
reach out to the clubs.
He actually thought like,
ah, I’ll just sit here and
the clubs will come to
me. I’ll just have to
mention that I’m open to
this, whereas I actually
don’t think clubs want
that kind of attention
from that kind of person
because they’re already
in trouble with these
other laws being put
into place. Then, very hot.
Yeah. This is another one
of those guys who seems
to think like because
he’s been successful on
YouTube, he deserves
stuff. He doesn’t actually,
he shouldn’t actually
have to work for it. Then,
this was just this
morning. So the same guy
took a video of a girl
near the Imperial Theater
theater and then called
her a scalper, said she
was reselling tickets. The
problem is Western people,
Canada and America, if
you’re in a public space,
it is okay to film other
people in Japan. It’s
actually not. If I videoed
in public and I post it
online, if I haven’t gotten
permission from those
people, I should actually
blur out their faces.
The privacy laws in Japan are much
stricter than they are in North America.
So he took a video of
this girl. He accused her
of being a scalper. He
had no proof of it. So
not he’s broken privacy
laws and he didn’t blur
out her face. So he,
oh, and then he accused
her being a scalper. So
that’s also defamation.
So defamation is
coming into it again.
He posted the video online without blurring
her face, without being able to prove the
accusation of being a
scalper. He was arrested for
defamation this morning.
So this guy who’s like,
“Hey, host club places,
come hang out with me and
give me money or give
me a situation where I can
make money.” Got arrested the next day
for doing the thing he was already doing.
