The companies are to blame for the maintaining bullshit laws like this, but also Japanese companies in particular are the most aggressive and putrid with copyright laws. Sony probably makes more money from copyrighted music on youtube than selling exclusive games for the PS5.

Edit: Btw the real blame in the end of the day is the late stage capitalism that we live in.
