Jin Jin & Cha Cha China’s Internet Police

Published by UltraYeah at 1:17 am under News

If you live in China you might want to watch what you post. The Chinese government has been putting some handcuffs on people that are suspected of disturbing the peace online. These two characters Jin Jin and Cha Cha are the icons of the government’s internet police. When you’re browsing in China and you come across inappropriate or controversial content, the two characters will show up on your screen and tell you it’s not to be trusted.

Although the program is run by the government, “Netizens”-Chinese citizens online- can contribute and flag websites for ChaCha and JinJin to investigate. Be careful of what you post in China: You could land in jail.

Yeah.
