    If you read this news piece from 2014, you’ll understand that Japan has a child pornography problem.

    Japan has banned the possession of child sex-abuse images, one of the last developed countries to do so.

    The new law states that anyone found with such images can be jailed for up to a year, or fined up to $10,000 (£6,000).

    The ban does not apply to animation or to comic art known as manga.
