Clean Internet of pornography

China Daily | Updated: 2014-04-16 08:16

The launch of a renewed campaign against pornography on the Internet was announced on Sunday. Despite multiple previous campaigns, the spread of pornography online persists. Some websites continue to produce and spread pornography in the name of sex education, some do it as part of their marketing strategy to gain a higher click-through rate, and still others make online games and fill their product with obscene and vulgar content. Many telecom operators, web portals, as well as search engines and mobile application stores have turned a blind eye to the phenomenon and have thus opened the door to the spread of pornography.

This makes it all the more imperative for the country to renew its efforts against the online spread of pornography with firm determination and stronger action, said a commentary in People's Daily on Monday.

Internet pornography does great harm to society, and is especially harmful to minors. China is now home to about 600 million Internet users, and the use of the Internet is more widespread among teenagers than ever. During a delicate period of mental, emotional and physical development, teenagers are more susceptible to digital disturbances such as Internet abuse and pornography.
