Millions of Chinese Kids Addicted to Internet Games
Li Jianguo, a vice chairman of the standing committee of the National People's Congress, was quoted by the Beijing Times as saying "Internet-addicted teenagers" make up approximately 10 percent of China's Web users under the age of 18.
To combat this moral corruption, the committee is calling for tighter monitoring of games consisting of objectionable content. That could literally mean anything they don't like, but restrictions will most likely concentrate on pornographic and/or violent games. Another pet peeve is games depicting Chinese authorities or military personnel as antagonists. Surprise, surprise.
The big push is for automatic time restrictions on Internet games. That's nothing though. In 2006, Internet game manufacturers in China were forced to demand that players reveal their real name and ID number when logging on.
Play on kids. Play on. [From: Yahoo!]
