B1tF1ghter: Certainly it is quite a hypocrisy to make a fuss about some pixel breasts while spreading IRL porn EVERYWHERE.
Imo Japan has a better approach to this (kind of reverse, hentai/doujin - ok, porn - not so much, "still" allowed to a degree, but far less).
Although Japan has become worse in some ways. For the Olympics they wanted to "clean up" a bit and convenience stores were "recommended" to stop putting porn magazines on the shelves for some nonsense reason. Meanwhile, here you can find porn magazines in larger supermarkets (or magazine shops of course) no problem. Kids can't reach that high to get those but teenagers certainly can.
B1tF1ghter: Hey do you perhaps have any resources regarding specificly JAPANESE DRMs?
I kid of got interested in the matter some time ago and I don't exactly know where to look (btw PCGW is PROFOUNDLY IGNORANT in regards to specificly JAPANESE DRMs and actually also stores so THAT resource is thrown out of the window immediatelly in this regard).
Uff, that's kind of a more complicated question, as different digital stores have different forms as well as several different ones too. Physical games used to be basically DRM-free (save CD-checks or some occasional serial number) but that changed for some in the 2010s.
The largest website DMM/FANZA has generally also the most draconian ones. The standard one is online verification every single time you start the game, for instance. They also block(ed?) non-Japanese from buying their stuff, so it's not that relevant. I wouldn't ever buy anything from them anyway.
DLSite is the website I use personally. They had an international version but they merged with the main Japanese/Korean/Chinese one last month. The international website used to be absolutely amazing UI-wise (pet peeve of mine) and it was definitely the best digital store on the internet. Unfortunately, the main website is not quite as good and the international version got integrated into that one (rather than the other way around). Since it was recent, there is also still a lot of work in progress. As for the DRM, they are very transparent about it. Look at this product page of a very old game by SystemSoft:
https://www.dlsite.com/soft/work/=/product_id/VJ004071.html The type of DRM is listed very prominently. They also have a good explanation of the different types they use on the website.

Japan is serious about piracy (not that it helps anyway). However, since the website is good, you can easily filter out all games with DRM when using advanced search (which is extremely powerful by the way, can't compare it to something like GOG at all).

My main issue with the website is the lack of normal Japanese PC games. But since it's basically mainly for doujins as well as VNs, I guess it's somewhat to be expected. Also, their support is really good. If you ever had to deal with Japanese companies with English support (even Amazon.jp), your eyes will start to water when you see the sophistication of the support.
The last of the "big 3" is Getchu. Never actually interacted with them. I think they are generally fine DRM-wise but probably go the same way as the trove of mid-sized online stores that use that "virtual battery" type of DRM. Apart from the large and mid-sized ones, sometimes companies have their own official digital stores.
So, unlike the West, it's actually all very decentralized due to the fact that, also unlike the West, digital stores emerged very early on. That was, interestingly enough, due to the massive amounts of doujin (indie) games whose scene had been very large since the 90s and moderately large since the 80s.
