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.
