CHINA shut down another 84 Websites yesterday for containing "pornographic and lewd content," bringing the total number of blocked sites in a month-long campaign against such sites to 175.
The Special Operation Office for the Crackdown on Online Porn and Lewd Content said government departments would step up efforts to continue to close illegal Websites and "severe penalties" would be meted out to those who violated the law. The campaign was launched on January 5 by the State Council's Information Office, the public security and culture ministries and other government agencies.
Public distribution of pornography is illegal in China. Previously, the country warned 50 Websites, including search engines Google, Baidu and MSN China, which were accused of being slow to delete erotic material.
