China Closes 1,800 Porn Websites

China has successfully shut down more than 1,800 pornographic websites since the nationwide campaign was launched to crack down the online sex last June, sources with Chinese official online reporting center said on Friday.
  
Since its debut on June 10 last year, the center has received 143,000 reports on websites with pornographic or other illegal contents, said Liu Zhengrong, director of the center.
 
About 67.5 percent of the reports are related to websites with pornographic contents while 4.4 percent of them are involving cults and 3.4 percent are related to online grift, according to Liu.
  
Thanks to the active reporting from the public, the center has transferred 1,878 related reports to the public security and judicial departments, including 1,264 ones with pornographic contents and 307 ones with gambling information.
  
To encourage more reports from the public, the center also issued a new rule to reward those who provide effective information, from 500 to 2,000 yuan (US$ 61 to 242).
