Guangdong users face suspension in anti-porn operation

GUANGZHOU: Authorities in Guangdong province are considering suspending mobile phone numbers if they are found sending more than 300 pornographic or spam text messages in an hour.

Gu Weizhong, director of the Guangdong Communications Administration, revealed the plan at a group discussion during the session of the Guangdong provincial political consultative conference.

Once the phone numbers are suspended, an investigation will be launched to determine whether any illegal acts are involved and if so, the numbers will be revoked, Gu said.
