China new web rules condemned
New regulations on internet use in China have been condemned by a media rights watchdog as an effort to tighten political control and a “disturbing step backwards” for online freedoms.
Under the new regulations announced on Tuesday that potential individual operators must submit their identity cards and photos of themselves.
The applicants are also required to personally meet regulators and representatives of service providers before being registered.
The country’s ministry of industry and information technology said the news rule was aimed at cracking down on pornography.
