Recently, what happened was that the Chinese Government had issued a statement to both Search Engine Giants, Google and MSN that their search engines contents links that are both pornographic and vulgar.
The Chinese Government has deliberated that most of the users are less tnan 30 years of age and it is a worrying problem that pornography could affect their minds. Strict measures on porn to banned all pornographic websites are being enforced. Google and MSN were being warned that if they do not do something about it, their website could be banned. This will be an enormous amount of users that we are talking about. Google had reply in an official statement that they had already removed pornograhic websites from its engine.
I think what the stance which Chinese Government has undertaken is right as explicit material on the Internet could generally hurt the young minds of their country. China being a very fast growing country in its users, could result in a social problem if this is not proportionally controlled and that is why the fight against explicit content is necessary.
On its own front, Baidu, China's very own search engine provider has also been in the limelight, known as the search engine scandal. Baidu has been alleged to have unlicensed medicine advertisers into their search platform and had led users from China to click into these links which sells allegedly useless but expensive medicines. In the offical response by Baidu's chief, they are currently looking into ways which involves layers of check on these licenses on medications. In my opinion, this is critical as to prevent such scams from affecting the overall sentiment towards the security and the authenticity of Internet transactions.
