Via ANN and Robot 6: online scanlation site MangaFox is once again hosting illegal scans of several titles — including Bleach and Naruto, in the face of a coalition established by Japanese publisher and overseas licencees to stop the illegal distribution of their intellectual properties.

Online manga sites like MangaFox are among the biggest on the internet; their popularity sometimes allows them to turn in a profit from ads, paid memberships, or user donations. However, none of these revenues ever make it back to the real owners of the manga on the site.

MangaFox is owned and run by Hangzhou NOEZ Technology Co., Ltd. The company specializes in setting up and monetizing anime and manga-related sites and services; many of their sites feature online streaming, paid downloads, and social networking, among others.
