I don't think he understands the concept of scanning in the first place. People called "scanners" put the Japanese copies on their computers, and have a translator translate everything, then put their own custom-made English version on the internet. If you google "read *insert manga name here* online", you'll find a bunch of websites. Of course, you should always buy the official English version once it comes out, otherwise you're ripping Tite Kubo and Shonen Jump off. And, some people just speak both Japanese and English and come on here to talk about it after reading the raw Japanese version, but that's a very small minority.
