Unrelated but at the same country..

I remember that Japan was the proud owner of the term "never took a 
hacker to trial" or maybe "never won taking one to trial".
Actually, I am even pretty sure that a few years ago, Liraz Siri's "The 
Internet Auditing Project" was done all from machines in Japan for that 
very same reason.

I don't have the full facts regarding Japanese "cyber-crime" (I hate 
that term) history, but the above URL shows this is changing.

I suppose it is no longer a "safe haven" for "computer mis-doings", or 
is one case (we hear about) not the general policy?
