Shueisha’s Bot Goes Haywire
By Epic Dope Staff | January 9, 2021
Many users woke up to see their accounts blocked or taken down or struck by copyright laws by Shueisha.
Shueisha is a Japanese company that publishes manga-based magazines and has tonnes of manga under them.
So what happens when a company this huge thoughtlessly strikes content on a global platform? A chaotic outbreak.
Not only official manga/anime pictures are being taken down but also fanarts of the series.
Many estimate that this new move is due to the new copyright enforcement law that was passed in Japan recently.
The most probable reason behind it might be a bot that Shueisha is using to find the tweets.
This has forced many Twitter users to go private to save their accounts. The only thing that this copyright strike is earning Shueisha is a bad name.
