China cracks down on Internet porn: 700 sites ....
 

Beijing, China, Jul. 28 (UPI) -- China's Ministry of Public Security has shut down 700 Web sites running pornographic content in less than a fortnight, according to local news reports.

State news agency Xinhua said Wednesday that 224 people had been detained for posting images and video considered lewd as well as text encouraging "pornographic activities online or organizing sex trade" since the crackdown began on July 16.

China Daily quoted Wu Mingshan, the public security official in charge of the campaign, as saying "a clean online environment" had been created in big cities such as Beijing and Shanghai plus provinces ranging from Guangdong in southern China to Liaoning in the northeast.

The ministry has received more than 700 phone calls and 16,000 online tips from the public responding to its phone hotlines and Web site for reporting porn sites.

Wu promised fraud and gambling were the next targets in China's war against online crime.

Same old same old for China. Cops get all the benefits. I can't believe that they have people sitting there watching at fucking porn and get paid for it...that makes me wonder if they found their way around GFY yet like too many surfers do :(

Everything can be done in China, even the freakiest porn sites. That's under the condition that you bribe your way around the authorities. It's never about the law. Out there, it's about who you know and what you can do for them.
