Get your fax right: Bungling officials spark nuclear scare
- duxup 7y ago>Many Japanese government departments and companies still rely on fax machines for communication. My understanding is that was and still might be the case for a lot of Japan. IIRC the story of a restaurant who stopped taking fax orders and tried to encourage internet orders ... people just quit ordering so they went back to taking fax orders.
- Ultramanoid 7y agoYou can send / receive faxes from konbini ( tens of thousands of stores open 24/7 ) as well, not even needed to actually own a fax machine -- I don't, but have to use the service a few times a week. Edit : I can only confirm the relatively widespread use of it in Japan to this day, not sure what's the reasoning behind it myself.
