How culture made Japanese Internet design "Weird"

Japanese Internet is designed differently, and so is Chinese Internet and South Korean Internet, and many other Asian countries' Internet. It's dense, cluttered, and information rich. Why? The answer lies in cultural psychology. It lies in how culture influences our brain's cognitive processes in perception and attention.

EDIT: Wow, I really did not expect this to blow up, and I wish I was more comprehensive in some of the points I bring after reading through your comments. Thank you for all the thoughts and critiques. This was never meant to be standalone essay, it was always meant to add to the original video as a different perspective, and hopefully invite you to the world of cultural psychology.

This video is a direct reply to the video made by Answer in Progress @answerinprogress:
   • why Japan's internet is weirdly designed  
I hope to add to the conversation and investigation that Answer in Progress spurred about this topic and cover the parts of this theory about Japanese Internet that they missed.
