Beijing sets up website for public to report gaming company ‘irregularities’ as anti-addiction drive ramps up


By Josh Ye

Anyone with a Chinese ID and a mobile phone number can report gaming company irregularities to the regulator through the website. The website appears designed to support last month’s new regulations from Beijing, which limit gaming time for under 18s to one hour per day at weekends. — SCMP

China’s gaming industry regulator has created a special website that encourages the public to report companies for any violation of state regulations designed to protect kids from video gaming addiction.

The website, officially named “reporting platform for gaming companies implementation of anti-addition regulations”, was created by the National Press and Publication Administration (NAPP) and is currently in “trial operations”.
