Chiebukuro, Yahoo! Finance Bulletin Board, LINE OpenChat, LINE VOOM, and Yahoo! News Comments). This report is the first to be published following the mandatory disclosure requirements under the Information Circulation Platform Act. LINE Yahoo provides multiple platforms where users can freely express opinions and engage in discussions. Each service has established guidelines prohibiting inappropriate content. Content moderation is conducted through 24-hour human patrols and proprietary AI, while respecting freedom of expression. The report covers five services and includes data on content moderation, internal structures, and initiatives for fiscal year 2025. In addition to legally mandated services, 'Yahoo! News Comments' is included voluntarily. The 2025 edition introduces new disclosure items such as online removal request forms and notifications to posters, reflecting the company's commitment to transparency.
