China’s cyberspace regulator has launched a long-term campaign to cut down on red tape and excessive formalities across government apps and social media.
The directive was issued on Monday by the Central Cyberspace Affairs Commission (CCAC), the Communist Party oversight body that sits at the top of the State Council’s Cyberspace Administration, which was set up to manage internet-related issues.
