REPORTS
END CHILD PORNOGRAPHY
Not childhood!
According to the investigative report on child pornography in Japan conducted by Human Rights Now, suspected child pornography materials continue to be readily available in retail stores and on the Internet despite laws against child pornography.
The investigation includes a survey of retail and online stores in Japan identifying suspected child pornography products, as well as analysis of relevant laws and interviews with police and review associations to help identify why suspected child pornography products continue to be available in the marketplace.
The report concludes with recommendations to the government of Japan and pornography industry actors and stakeholders to end the proliferation of child pornography.
