RED PORN

China has opened a new round of attacks on the Internet, claiming that it now 
will impose life in prison for Net and mobile phone "pornography." The 
official Chinese news outlet, Xinhua, stated, "Depending on the seriousness 
of the cases, the sentences range from living under compulsory surveillance, 
detainment, taking into custody by the police, to various terms of 
imprisonment and life imprisonment."

China has cracked down on porn and political Web sites with a vengeance in the 
past few months. In the latest crackdown, which started in July, authorities 
have shut down hundreds of Web sites and arrested more than 300 people.

RED SPAM

Unsolicited Internet messages account for more than half of all e-mails 
received in China. Chinese government Internet "experts" are urging the 
Chinese government to take forceful action against junk mail.
