A while back ago I heard there was a Japanese company that could disappear a person. Like all internet images, posts about them. If anyone in Japan can answer is this true? And how much is it?

  Sounds pretty far fetched, like late 90s-early 2000s internet movies. They’ll cybersurf the web tubes and hack the servers or something.

  You’re probably thinking about jouhatsu, but that’s not exactly about wiping your complete history from the internet. It’s more about disappearing and not creating any new paper trail of where you are and your new life.

  Jōhatsu (…) refers to the people in Japan who purposely vanish from their established lives without a trace. (…)

  I’m just here to take notes. Carry on.

  It also helps when you can tell the Japanese government not to tell anyone where you are at.
