Japan Refused To Help NSA Tap Asia's Internet
An anonymous reader writes "The NSA sought the Japanese government's cooperation to wiretap fiber-optic cables carrying phone and data across the Asia-Pacific region but the request was rejected. The NSA wanted to intercept personal information including Internet activity and phone calls passing through Japan from Asia including China. The Japanese government refused because it was illegal and would need to involve a massive number of private sector workers. Article 35 of the Japanese Constitution protects against illegal search and seizure."
Fortunately, emperor Obama thinks the constitution is a "living document" http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2012/03/obamacare-and-the-living-breathing-constitution/255145/
I actually think you're a racist apologist, like I said, probably not an actual racist. You're so in love with (what you perceive to be) Japan that you will White Knight the entire country on the Internet. The fact that you pretend you have to research "waifu" and then conveniently leave out the rest of the paragraph that discusses the exact context in which I used it reinforces that belief that you are either a liar or delusional.
The fact that you "accuse" me of living in Japan or having some problem with Japanese people is laughable. If I had posted about my problem with a sexist Saudi culture not allowing women to drive would you have accused me of being a woman in Saudi Arabia? Apparently that's the way shit works in your fucked up head. I'm sorry that the country of Japan has a long and well documented history of institutional racism. You can splutter sad, delusional excuses on the internet but that won't change reality. Cognitive dissonance is a bitch.
