Новогодняя статистика китайского интернета:
China arrests 5,000 for internet pornography offences
China arrested more than 5,000 people in 2009 in a drive to purge the internet of pornography and other “harmful information”.
The ministry of public security said 5,394 people had been arrested and that over 9,000 websites had been deleted for having pornographic content. The ministry did not say how many people had subsequently been put on trial.
The authorities released the figures with a warning that its policing of the internet would intensify in 2010 in order to preserve “state security”.
With over 350 million internet users, the government worries that any small cracks in its authority could quickly spiral out of control. In the first six months of 2009, an average of 221,000 Chinese a day started using the internet for the first time, or 153 new users a minute.
In December, the government offered a reward of up to 10,000 yuan (£906) to people who reported websites that feature pornography. |
