  • Due process means the process of going through the court system. Nothing more. The courts are there, almost in theory at this point, to determine legality and/or guilt. Cases can get tossed over illegal actions by law enforcement.

    But, for most people the damage has already been done even if they are not found guiltily. That's what these actions were, to send a message.

  • It's definitely happened before, though I couldn't say to what extent. The reason has been that if they rate games from major developers too poorly they stop getting access to their new games before release.

    I care very little about critics these days though, and it's mostly for the reason you suggest, differing opinions. If they don't like the same types of games I like, what good is their rating to me? I'm not taking the time to try to find a critic that has similar tastes as me.

  • Funny you mention apps. I turned auto-update off for all of them on my phone because I got tired of functionality being removed. A couple force updates after you get too far behind. Been alright so far, but it's been less than half a year ago we'll see how it goes in the long run. Security is obviously taking a hit by doing this.

  • Other comments had it so I didn't think it was necessary. Immigration can prop up a low birthrate but that can't last forever. Need to actually have a culture that supports procreation. And Japan doesn't really have that. Their work culture is directly responsible for it. I don't think that's something easily fixed. Financial incentives could help, but unless it's pretty hefty it probably wouldn't be enough.
