Porn sites’ collusion revealed

Authorities in east China’s Jiangsu Province have cracked a case where websites colluded with illegal advertising platforms to disseminate pornography and trade in citizens’ personal details.

Investigators seized 50 suspects and destroyed 118 websites and 913 online billboards, according to the Ministry of Public Security and the National Office Against Pornographic and Illegal Publications.

A spokesman said porn websites teaming up with advertising platforms had become a major form of online crime in recent years.

“The advertisements popping up on computer screens are linked to porn websites, attracting high click-through rates and making huge profits for the ad platforms.”
