Out of curiosity, forgetting that the US is also pursuing something similar, what motive would Google have to comply with a Japanese ruling? Could Japan just… Ban Google if they don’t comply?

Every country is sovereign in its territorial. This means that they can:

  • confiscate actives in japan
  • to pass fines
  • to ban the access to the servers
  • to ban the operations on its territory
  • to jail the company’s representative of the country
  • etc etc
