Also note that you cannot torrent on the vanilla japanese internet. I have a friend in Japan and for him torrents simply don't connect.

What service? I know no one who has ever had any issue torrenting from a home connection. The phones and public WiFi might prevent it however.

I'll have to ask him again. He's a bit tech illiterate, so that might be it. Plus, being there as an ESL teacher you don't want to jeopardize your career with anyone finding out you torrent.

Why was there so much Japanese traffic on the old nyaa.se (now nyaa.pantsu.cat)? Most of the raws are uploaded from Japan.
