Yahoo! Japan is seeking for decriminalization of election campaign on the Net

Yahoo! Japan announced Wednesday that it launched a website for demanding decriminalization of election campaigns on the Internet during an election period that day.

As of now, changing election-related content on a website of political parties or candidates during an election period is prohibited by the Public Officers Election Law in Japan.

The website is asking the visitors to sign for supporting the decriminalization.

Yahoo! Japan will conduct lobbying activities by using the signing result.
