DLSite Blocking products (Anyone else?)

[kassandra]

Afternoon,

Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this or is aware of what I might be doing wrong. On some DLSITE products ; for example RJ01225894, I am unable to view the product page. I don't know if it's blocked because I'm in the west, or otherwise. It just redirects me to the home. It also does this for some products that I might click on to bring to another tab or just view. Straight to home, not even able to view the pages.

I'm not sure why this happens, Is it because I'm in the west? Would love to know if anyone might have any idea what I'm doing wrong, because it makes browsing a massive pain and being able to look at preview images for some postings here completely impossible.

I understand Fanza doesn't allow westerners, (not sure how to get past that) but DLSite I thought was fully open.

Anyone Else?

I tried the product code and yes, the page gets redirected to the homepage. Tested with a Japanese location on my VPN and the product listing would load normally.

I suppose it's an AI-generated work, for some reason you can't view those if you're not in japan, if you want to view and purchase them you need a japanese IP.

经过详细测试,此类作品没用当地日本ip地址的话,是不显示也搜索不到.
如果你在日本IP的情况下,打开网页是可以把作品丢在自己的收藏夹里.
这样在非日本IP情况下是可以看到的.但是如果不是的情况依然打不开该页.

RJ01225894这个作品还必须'AI生成'专门搜索才能到. 总之这类作品问题都比较特殊.

No, it's not just you. DLsite is actively blocking access to some products from those outside of Japan, because they got fed up with the Western woke cultists (Visa and Mastercard), causing trouble with their business just for a bunch of pixels on the internet.

If you wanna do something about it, tell US citizens to hurry up and de-woke-ify the country, by doing something to those two Godforsaken companies. That or find alternative payment method or credit cards outside of US.

Until then, use your VPN to buy the Dlsite tokens.

I don't want to go to deep on politics nor defend the wokes, but in this regard I normally see both wokes and conservatives against this type of content on the internet (at least on my country).

First, I don't see either of them will visit this forum anytime soon. Those prude extremists will keel over when exposed to all the indecency.

Second, I'm not a US citizen, so to hell with their politics, really. The US leftist wokes and the US fascist right, can go fuck themselves to hell. They never vote for the moderates (who actually gives a shit), so it's kinda their own fault. US is a corporatocracy with a demagogue (POTUS) as its puppet leader. The de facto leader(s) are the Fortune 500 CEOs. "Most powerful man in the world", my ass. POTUS is the bitch of America's CEOs, whether its the dems or the reps. That's why their US citizens are practically serfs.

The problem is, they keep dragging the whole world into their own local mess, because the international currency is being pegged to US dollar. Now, they get to dictate what everyone is allowed or not allowed to buy with they hard-earned money. Fuck those braindead tax dollar thieves in the white house, really.

If you ask me, I think this is VISA's way of trying to shut down the Japanese hentai market so western stores have a better chance at selling it Even if spotty, they know it sells well on Steam and itch. Hentai art is also generating a lot of money via self employment, and Japanese artists finally had a foothold with commissions using SKEB, pixiv requests and so on only to get hit by VISA too.

Really this is probably just VISA being evil here more than a political motive, putting their knee on the Japanese markets so to speak. But good luck finding an alternative. Crypto is still too finicky for people to trade in casually.
