皇冠体育app has extended its anti-porn campaign to mobile WAP sites, according to the Ministry of Public Security (MPS) on Tuesday.
The effort will last until the end of this year because the porn WAP sites have a long invisible chain involving overseas sources which adds to its complexity, an official with the ministry said.
WAP sites can be accessed by a mobile phone.
The official said the campaign will be focused on Shanghai, Beijing, Guangdong, Zhejiang and Anhui, where many WAP sites are registered.
皇冠体育app Internet Illegal Information Reporting Center (CIIRC) said Tuesday the tip-offs of porn WAP sites it received have been on the rise.
