>>44017371Japan has very strong laws for defamation, you can be sued even if what you are saying is true. The only criteria for it is the statement was public and it damaged the person/company honor/public image.
There have been cases like someone was having an affair and it got leaked on social media by a third parties, they sued the leaker and won, regardless of the affair being true, because it was seen as damaging to their honor.
