It's going to start a movement where businesses don't allow streamers into their businesses. These pricks need to be made examples of.

In general, you arent supposed to record in businesses in japan without permission.

Its just that in japan, getting permission is usually considered a hassle for streamers who are constantly uploading content or in japan for a limited amount of time and did not ask in advance, so people follow the record but if you get in trouble, apologize profusely method.

The difference between Japanese streamers and foreign streamers in Japan is like night and day. When I watch local streamers, they almost always take the time to blur out faces and anything that might even present anything identifiable. It seems almost excessive at times, but there's a very real sense of societal awareness and social obligation not to be a dick. Even the evening news over here blurs out the faces of random passersby when they film on location. Then when I watch foreigners who stream over here, it's rude, in-your-face, talking about you right in front of you (with no regards as to whether or not they speak English). I expect the Japanese people who you see on these shitbag streamers' channels assume that they'll be treated with the same respect and decency that local streamers would use, rather than be immortalized on Youtube without their permission. It really sucks.

It's not about the permission or apologies. It's about being a decent human being. These asshats who spend the time adding text and graphics to their videos could also blur faces and hide identities, but they don't. Fuck them.

If someone started filming me at my job I would give them their check, tell them to leave and have the police deal with them if they refuse.

I'm glad to see Japan won't put up with this type of shit. These type of "influencers" are criminal attention whores who should be shunned by modern society.

This is why we can't have nice things.

Fucking pricks.

Snuff it out from the source, go after YouTube for promoting this behavior

Here's a take on this from one of the largest English language youtubers in Japan.

TL;DW : he calls them out for being fucking idiots.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


A rise in the antics of nuisance influencers in Japan, who are accused of duping train ticket collectors and pretending to be homeless to get cash, has caused consternation in the country as tourism number near their pre-pandemic levels.

One of the suspected fare dodgers, known online as Fidias, posted a video to his 2.38 million subscribers over the weekend showing him and three others evading rail staff and blagging free food.

While Panayiotou’s followers applauded his audacity, the reaction from other social media users was overwhelmingly negative, with some accusing them of abusing Japan’s reputation for safety and hospitality.

Overcrowding at popular sight-seeing spots, as well as bad behaviour such as drinking on the street and littering, have prompted the government to draw up measures to reduce over-tourism, including steep rises in train fares and campaigns to attract visitors to lesser-known rural areas.

The influencer, who has since turned to boxing and professional wrestling, was labelled “disrespectful” and “disgusting” after he joked with friends about discovering the body in Aokigahara forest, a notorious suicide spot at the base of Mount Fuji.

Earlier this year, several people were arrested after they posted videos of themselves interfering with food in revolving sushi and other fast-food restaurants, forcing the industry to take emergency hygiene measures.


The original article contains 807 words, the summary contains 213 words. Saved 74%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

Their train stations are built on the honor system, you don't even go through a turnstyle in most places.

[-] TokenBoomer@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

That’s just a theory, a stealing food theory. /s

We must strengthen border security, apply the law equally, and engage in diplomatic efforts to address the issue
