Hiroyuki Nishimura is the current chink owner of 4chan dot org and founder of the iconic chan site 2channel. Often referred to as "gookmoot", "Hiro", "Hiroshimoot" or "Hiroshima Nagasaki" by 4channers, he is also known for his terrible knowledge of the English language and for allegedly selling user data to Big Tech companies.

Hiro bought the website off of moot in 2015, after moot decided to cuck out on his senpai at 4chanz by abandoning the site.

Quoted By:

2channel (ni-channeru in moon) is the Japanese Stormfront, filled brimful with far-right goons bitching endlessly of how anything made by or related to the Yamato race is better than their filthy gaijin counterparts, and how Chinks and Gooks commit all the crimes and plot ceaselessly to destroy the rich traditions of the Empire of the Rising Sun (not that more than 2% of the population in their racist little crap-pile of an archipelago are of non Japanese descent, but nevermind). It is also the largest Internet forum in the world. (Srsly!)

Testament to the unparalleled faggotry of the Japanese people, 2channelers only post anonymously, and b& all non Jap IPs from posting. In 2001, an imageboard spin-off to 2channel called Futaba Channel (a.k.a. 2chan) was created. Subsequently, some weeaboo faggot called moot decided to set up an English language clone of futaba, and thusly, the anonymous cancer had infected this side of the internets as well.

Quoted By:

Hiroyuki Nishimura (the japanese version of moot), 2channel founder, NicoNico Douga CEO and gravure idol, has transferred the world’s largest forum 2ch to an unknown Singaporean company, in a move which has taken observers largely by surprise.

The (public) background to this is that as an anonymous board, 2ch is frequently used to make actionable comments, and the desperate trail of lawyers hunting for someone to sue has long been an impediment to the site’s management, even if Hiroyuki is notorious for ignoring them.

This is thought to be part of the reason why Hiroyuki recently announced on his blog that the site has been completely transferred, taking effect on the 1st of January.

Now it would appear that 2ch has no formal connection to Japan at all, despite being its largest forum.

The company to which 2ch has been transferred, Packet Monster Inc, is completely unknown, and in fact is likely merely a shell or holding company for taxation and litigation minimisation.

Quoted By:

A spot of searching reveals the lady listed in the contact details to be the CEO of a Singaporean company called Rikvin, specializing in Singapore-based offshore company formations.

With no particular connection to the business of managing web sites, we can speculate reasonably that the management continues to reside with Hiroyuki, and this move is thus entirely driven by tax or legal incentives.

The servers themselves have long been internationally hosted, chiefly for legal reasons, so from this perspective there should be no change.

Aside from the issue of the unknown company, Hiroyuki himself, and subsequent mass media reports, all refer to a complete “transfer” of the site’s ownership to Packet Monster – clearly a huge site like 2ch, which is thought to have millions of dollars of revenue, is unlikely to have just been given away, so unless a secret sale was involved it looks as though Hiroyuki will be retaining an interest.

Quoted By:

An issue we do not see given any consideration is that of the less than free speech enjoyed in Singapore – presumably with an offshore Internet concern this is not an issue, as we might not expect a site like 2ch to last long were it a domestic Singaporean site.

Hiroyuki himself remains deeply involved in losing millions of dollars monthly at NicoNico Douga, whilst dreaming about global expansion, so it seems likely shedding some of the burden the management of 2ch involved will be useful to him.

Given that no significant improvements have been made to the awkward, if not obsolescent, 2ch site itself in many years, any innovation or change on this front seems unlikely.

The online reaction to this has been very mixed, with most not really understanding the move, though the more extreme responses such as “He’s abandoning Japan!” are quite unreasonable.

Quoted By:

In fact, many ostensibly Japan based major websites are incorporated and hosted overseas, most notably the massive free blog host FC2, the second most frequently visited domain in Japan, second only to Yahoo.co.jp. In this case, the company is actually incorporated in Nevada under the name of an American, and the management resides in Los Angeles.

Whilst this move is being painted by many, not least Hiroyuki, as a case of avoiding the oppressive Japanese courts, we must wonder at the significant tax advantages he will now enjoy.

Moot is such a fucking sellout.
He fought to protect anonymity with 4chan, but then all of a sudden, left us in the dust, and joined google, the biggest threat to anonymity.

Quoted By:

In January 2015, Moot got tired of being called a cuck by his former userbase who left him when he sold out during GamerGate and would only come back from 8ch to shitpost on /pol/ and laugh at him for being cheated on by some Gawker employee named Mallory Greitzer who was only sleeping with him to get a promotion. To combat this he made all his mods sign a contract agreeing to do it for free, and then announced that he had "decided it is time to move on".

But Moot couldn't simply leave silently, he wanted to exit like an real hero, posting a global news announcement and holding a livestream on jewtube where he answered questions posted on the temporal board /qa/. The entire video was a cringeworthy whine-fest.

Later he admitted that he wouldn't be quitting 4chan for good, and would come back after taking a break, but that turned out to be a lie because mootles has sold 4chan to the creator of 2chan as of September of 2015. Fucking kike.

If you thought that Ashley Madison was only for guys looking to bang strange used pussy, you are incorrect, as Mr. Poole used the service to have strange guys over to fuck his ugly girlfriend, while he sat in corner using his tears as lubrication to jerk off his rotting dick to his girlfriend spreading her herpes to lonely guys.

Moot was hired by jewgle in 2016 and presumably still works for them to this day.
