China issued a new rule on requiring PC makers to include filtering software in new PCs recently, quoted to filter the harmful pornography content from the youths . I am confused by where it came from and the way it implemented the policy.
Three questions:
(1) If this policy only targets at youths, why every PC needs to include this computer? not every household has a young kid.
(2) If parents are worried about this, then why don't give them the option, say put a CD in the PC pack, to let them set up themselves?
(3) Curing a disease has to cure from the fundamental. Why don't spend more money on regulating those pornography website, instead of making a national-wide expensive policy like this? I would be curious to know how much taxpayers' money is spent on this? and is there any open/transparent bid on who is going to be the software provider?
If those questions can't be answered, then this policy is destined to be a bizarre.
