Quickly adding that after more research, it DOES appear to be a response to Mastercard / Visa's campaign against their payment services being used for "Sensitive content."

In order words, the videos affected by this should mostly be videos containing sensitive content, such as violence or sexual themes. Most MMD distribution videos should remain largely unaffected for the time being if this is the case.

Nico Seiga is the biggest loss in this for MMDers, so i would unfortunately have to recommend using a VPN to access seiga if needed.

Have you heard about NicoNico (and the stuff that belongs to it like Seiga) being closed off now for everyone outside of Japan? Think that a VPN is needed now. But as not everyone's going to have access to that (most VPNs are a paid subscription from what I've seen) it's going to be difficult for the non-Japanese MMD community to get access to motions and stuff since everything that was on NicoNico (passwords in the description/video/behind like button, preview of what the (camera) motion looks like) is locked now. For example we can't like the video for the password now because non-VPN users can't view it.

Hello! I had heard about some of these changes, though I was unsure when they would be taking effect and hadn't noticed a change in my own viewing experience yet.

Some of what you've said was incorrect, so I'm going to lay out an explanation as I understand it.

Certain videos / Channels will be hidden from those determined to be viewing from overseas, as well as certain genres and thumbnails. You will not be able to view the site from your phone browser at all, and must download the app in order to use nico douga on a mobile device. (While this is not said directly, there is some emphasis on specifically videos with "sensitive content", leading me to believe they will be the majority of the videos effected. IF this is the case, then most mmd videos linked on this blog should still be accessible.)

Nico Seiga IS completely inaccessible without the use of a VPN for overseas users.

Videos unavailable on Nico Douga for overseas users will also be unavailable on NicoNico Channel and the Vocal Collection App.

However. Overseas users CAN still like and view most videos. Logged out users have never been able to like videos, so if you're having problems liking the videos to get the passwords, you either need to log into your nico douga account or make an account (which you can still make as an overseas user). For proof, I'm not currently using my VPN and I was able to access the most recently posted video and like it.

There are also VPNs available that are free, they just aren't going to be as fast as the paid services. If you're only using them for Nico, I don't think that should be a huge problem.

I do want to say that even if, at some point, Nico Douga became inaccessible to all overseas viewers without a VPN, i would not under any circumstance begin linking directly to download links or exposing passwords. I'm not trying to imply that you were suggesting this, I just want to get ahead of that in case someone does ask for it. The point of this site was to catalogue and search for motions easier, not to give out content I don't own or break rules from people who were kind enough to give out their hard work.

#reblog #not a motion #they can't / won't state directly that it's sensitive content OR mastercard's fault because that could most likely get them in trouble #and the whole point of this change is to prevent possible future trouble because they could tell it was coming #since mastercard / visa already went after pixiv #Anyway. It's not a huge deal for MMD Motions since those are largely contained on nico douga and aren't R-18 #... at least not the ones I post usually sdlkfjsd
