Microblogs crackdown

CHINESE authorities closed 535 microblog accounts over the past week due to the alleged dissemination of pornographic and lewd content, the State Internet Information Office said yesterday.

Some individuals were found to have used their microblogs to distribute video clips, pictures, text and links related to topics such as "one-night stands," "flirtatious self-shots and candid images" and "teen prostitution."

"These acts violated the law and have had a bad influence on the public in terms of perverting social morals and disrupting order on the Internet," the statement said.
