Japan uses this and scans you when you enter the country. Pass through quickly when you leave country and they know you are gone. It works but could definitely be misused in a country with lower standards of moral foundation.
Are we supposed to pretend that Japan’s government is somehow above reproach…?
Not really. But culturally, it is very different. Robberies are basically unknown. If someone loses a wallet, people look to return it. People on the subway are quiet and respectful. Litter is uncommon. I have been there a couple of times and sometimes wish I could live there. It is not a perfect place by any means. Just like anywhere. But it is SO different than China, S. Korea, or the US. Edit. Spelling
This is the country with “women only” subway cars because there’s so much sexual assault on the subway? You were a tourist. That’s why they were polite to you.
Not true. Never said I was a tourist. Not sure what country you went to?

Lmao I literally got someone trying to put their hand up my clothes THREE different times on the subway and my neighbour got mugged at knifepoint in the year I lived there. But sure, Japan is a crime-free utopia.
Not like Japanese cops are infamous for not prosecuting anything that isn’t a slam dunk or anything.
No problem using it in the US then… homerfadeintohedge.gif
