China has begun to dispatch cyber patrols on Chinese websites to remind surfers that all their communications are being monitored.
The cyber cops will be on the lookout for websites and Internet activities that incite secession, promote superstition, gambling, fraud and pornography, the China Daily said, citing Beijing’s public security bureau. [...] As well as offering a reminder that “big brother” is watching, web users can also click on the cyber police images to connect with the Internet surveillance centre and report suspicious activities.
Well, at least the cyber cops look friendly :)
Why is it that even when their stuff is home grown it still looks like bad Chinese knock-offs of the real product?
It looks like they were trying to emulate manga-style characters and still didn’t get it quite right.
