In response to adult games being removed and hidden on Steam and itch.io en masse, Japan's association for freedom of expression has published a statement urging the gaming platforms to resist unjust pressures that lack a legal foundation. The organization emphasizes the importance of protecting creative freedom and the rights of developers to express themselves without fear of censorship.
The recent wave of content removal has raised concerns among creators and players alike, prompting discussions about the implications of such actions on artistic expression.

The organization hopes that by standing firm against unwarranted censorship, Steam and itch.io can foster an environment that respects diverse voices and artistic endeavors.
