Report to Police if You Want to Surf the Net

Filed under: China Internet — timwang @ 11:53:17 pm

Chong Qing, the largest city (population wise) in China (possibly in the world) has rolled out a new law, all citizens must file a report to the local police stations if they want to surf the world wide web from home. The reporting process must be completed by October 30th, 2006. If one fails to file the report after the date, they may be un-plugged by the police for maximum of 6 months. The new law covers both dial up and ADSL / Cable Internet users. It is aimed for searching and capture "online criminals".
