The China Internet Illegal Information Reporting Centre has released its "No.1 Report", which exposes the illegal spread of risque information of some Chinese websites and combines the names of those websites onto a blacklist.
The websites that are on the blacklist include the community channel of qingdaonews.com, the BBS channel of cjn.cn, the entertainment channel of 21cn.com, the entertainment BBS channel of scol.com.cn, the images area of szonline.net, and the images area of Tom.com.
The China Internet Information Service Commission of the Internet Society of China, which sponsors the CIIIRC, issued a proposal to establish a better Internet environment on June 25, 2008. To cooperate with the work of the commission, the China Internet Illegal Information Reporting Centre implemented a spot check on some Chinese websites about which the public had complained.
The results of the spot check show that most of the websites can meet the requirements. However, "unhealthy" information still appears on some websites. In regards to this situation, the CIIIRC previously sent notices to these websites and ordered them to delete the illegal content, but CIIIRC says their demands were not heeded. Therefore, the the CIIIRC decided to expose the names of these websites on its blacklist.
CIIIRC says it will now implement regular spot checks after receiving complaints from netizens. They will send notices to any website that fails to meet minimum standards of decency and order them to make corrections within a specified time. For these websites that refuse to make corrections or make inadequate corrections, CIIIRC will publicize their names.
