Just checked. Most adverts are for paid porn and toys, not other goods and services. Is this not the same in the West?

- jchw 7y agoI’m more referring to sites like Pixiv as an example, which, while they are not in the business of pornography, do in fact host a fair bit of it. One difference is that Pixiv requires you to be logged in to see NSFW content, much like the new Imgur changes, but I suspect this is for other reasons. I haven’t checked to see if doing that actually shows different things in terms of advertisements. OTOH, I’ve never heard of any advertisers pulling out of an entity due to pornographic content in Japan.
- londons_explore 7y agoJust tried Pixiv.. Hit the OAuth with Google button, and after OAuthing, it then asks for your Google password... That isn't how OAuth is supposed to work...
- jchw 7y agoIt does what? Are you sure?? I haven’t tried OAuth on Pixiv but they have a fairly good engineering culture and would be surprised if they are asking for your Google password. Edit: I just tried. The password it’s asking for is the one that will be associated with the Pixiv account that is created. Whether that is how federated login should work is arguable, but it’s a fairly common pattern.
