The article was written in a very "flowery" style typical of fictional and/or emotionally appealing narratives. That being said, the majority of the information used was requoted or cited from articles and books recounting the major events.

I've-Been-Violated allows you to put in your name, phone number, and email, read instructions, and take a video recording in three steps.

What-about-no wouldn't send me a confirmation email so I couldn't log in :(

The production and continued maintenance is paid for by hospitals and foundations partnered with the app developers. 

The program was created in reaction to the disaster at Fukushima-Daiichi, with influence of the lessons learned post-bombing in Hiroshima. Hiroshima University specializes in radiation casualty medicine and works to improve medical care in response to nuclear emergencies. This program was specifically made to generate leaders capable of directing relief efforts while keeping the clear goal of reconstruction post-disaster.
