Recent actions by the Chinese government have led to the shutdown of an additional 60 websites, following a large-scale campaign that previously targeted 97,000 blogs and microblogs for containing pornographic material, advertisements for prostitutes, and unregistered content. This crackdown has involved the investigation and punishment of numerous internet companies and the dismantling of adult content rings. The forum discusses the implications of these measures for webcam models, particularly those who produce blogs and amateur videos, questioning how these government actions might affect their visibility and operations, especially in relation to their audience in China.
- Discussion highlights the extensive censorship in China, likening it to digital monitoring systems that filter out content deemed inappropriate by the government.
- Forum members express a general consensus that the impact on webcam models outside of China is likely minimal, especially for those without a significant Chinese audience.
- Concerns are raised about the visibility and accessibility of content produced by webcam models in China, pondering the necessity of government registration for broader visibility.
- Members share insights on cultural attitudes towards paying for content, suggesting a pervasive preference for free access, which might influence the demand for paid webcam content from regions with strict censorship and economic conditions.
The conversation invites further information and thoughts on the subject, encouraging a collaborative effort to understand the broader implications of China's internet censorship on the global webcam modeling community.
