China Targets Google, Baidu Over Porn
The Chinese Government has warned Google, Baidu and other popular sites in China that they must do more to block porn.
Porn is banned in China but remains widely available.
The Chinese Government said in a statement that the sites had failed to take efficient measures in removing porn from its pages. The censorship of porn is meant to “purify the Internet’s cultural environment and protect the healthy development of minors.”
A Google China spokesperson quoted in an AP article said that Google does not have any pornographic content in Google China and “if we find any violation, we will take action. So far, I haven’t seen any examples of violations.”
Other sites targeted include Sina and Sohu.
