"Ejovi Nuwere, chief technology officer of SecurityLab Technologies, is suing the government for violation of his freedom of speech under Article 21 of the Japanese Constitution. It is the first of its kind in Japan, according to his lawyer.

Nuwere claims that officials of Japan's Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications (MIC) forced him to abandon a presentation he was due to give earlier this month on security issues related to Japan's online citizen registry network, called Juki Net."


So lemme get this straight, he does an audit for the Japanese government, then he's barred for presenting the results of the audit? Does this seem kind of odd to anyone else? Personally I would be pretty upset if a former auditor of a company i worked for tried to present the results of the assessment. At least in America, (and every audit I've ever done) some form of an NDA is required. So basically I could be sued if I pulled something like this. Which I agree with completely... If he just ruined my chances of working for a security firm in Japan I will be Very Very Upset.
