97% of Chinese children are online, and the government is taking action.
China is introducing new cybersecurity rules to protect minors, placing responsibility on Internet companies, authorities and schools. These measures are taken to address risks such as Internet violence and Internet addiction.
Chinese Prime Minister Li Jiang has unveiled new rules aimed at creating a cyberspace conducive to the "physical and mental health" of more than 191 million Internet users under the age of 18. According to state media, schools and technology companies should provide special tools to protect young people from Internet addiction and malicious content.
The new rules, which will take effect on January 1, follow demands in 2021 from the Chinese Cyberspace Administration (CAC) for technology companies to introduce a "youth regime" that controls game content for users under the age of 16.
China is also working to introduce a "curfew" from 22: 00 to 06: 00, during which anyone under the age of 18 is prohibited from using the Internet.
"The Central Committee of the Party and the State Council attach great importance to protecting cyberspace for minors, as it concerns the future of our nation and the happiness of families," the Ministry of Justice and the CAC said in a joint statement.
Under the new rules, the CAC will coordinate the work of various state departments to ensure protection. Providers of Internet products and services should be subject to State and public oversight, cooperate in inspections, and address complaints in a timely manner.
Organizations and individuals are prohibited from producing or distributing pornographic, violent, or other malicious content. Instead, China encourages the distribution of content that promotes "socialist core values," revolutionary culture, and traditional Chinese culture.
Internet service providers who violate these rules are fined up to 50 million yuan, or 5% of the company's annual turnover for the previous year.
In 2021, almost 97% of Chinese children and adolescents aged 6 to 18 used the Internet. More than a quarter of those surveyed said they had experienced "cybersecurity incidents" in the past six months.
