In response to the increasing damage caused by pirated sites such as manga and anime, an organization for international cooperation was established, and the first meeting was held with the participation of organizations such as Japan and the United States.
The newly established "International Anti-Piracy Organization" was held online for the first time on the 26th with the participation of copyright protection groups and government agencies from the United States and Southeast Asia.
CODA = Content Overseas Distribution Association, which is created by Japanese publishing and animation companies, is responsible for the operation of the site. It is widely distributed. I would like to exchange information to contribute to international measures. "
Operators of illegal pirated sites often have bases in countries other than copyrighted companies and individuals in order to avoid being caught by law enforcement agencies, and it is necessary to cooperate with law enforcement agencies in each country. ..
The International Anti-Piracy Organization, which was established, will investigate information on illegal sites and provide it to investigative agencies in each country or encourage investigations, and will invite each country to participate in the future.
Mr. Goto said, "There are countries where the priority of countermeasures is low because they do not have the ability to investigate or infringe on their own content. I would like to share the awareness of the problem and cooperate with each country."
