I thought Japan was an advanced country. Quite shocking to see this kind of thing happening anywhere. It reminds me of apartheid in South Africa.

It's sad that a product like this is needed, but I'm not surprised. In many countries, including Japan, anyone who is accused of a sex crime has their lives ruined by the media and is unable to get a job or function in society, even if the allegations are completely false. There have been cases in the US when a woman admitted to falsely accusing someone of rape for some reason, and the accused rapist's life is ruined anyway. Insurance won't fix everything, but it's a good start.
