Authorities targeting amateur sex videos
Print Edition
China’s anti-pornography office wants to rid social media of amateur sex videos.
Authorities are aiming to keep cyber space clean at a time when it has become easier for people to use mobile phones to make sex videos and post them online.
In July, a sex video taken with a mobile phone inside a fitting room of clothing retailer Uniqlo in Beijing spread rapidly on social media. Police detained four people on suspicion of spreading obscene content.
On Wednesday, sex scenes appeared on a giant display at a shopping mall in the eastern city of Lishui, and clips of the footage spread online, sparking a police investigation.
Also on Wednesday, a video clip of sex acts in Chengdu spread on Weibo. Police detained one suspect on suspicion of spreading the video, local authorities said.
Citing these incidents, the Office Against Pornography and Illegal Publications is demanding authorities at all levels take immediate action in such cases, and “resolutely” punish those who upload and host the videos.
The office said such videos were derailing social decency, disrupting online order and trampling on moral standards and the law.
