BEIJING: Chinese children and teens will be cut off from accessing the internet at night and have their smartphone use curbed under new rules unveiled on Wednesday aimed at fighting internet addiction.
A tiered system for managing smartphone usage time will also be imposed, spanning a maximum of 40 minutes a day for those under the age of eight to two hours for 16 and 17-year-olds. The CAC said the rules would"improve the positive role of the internet, create a favourable network environment, prevent and intervene in minors' internet addiction problems, and guide minors to form good internet use habits".
Beijing authorities have pursued expansive regulation of the domestic tech sector in recent years, due in part to concerns over the risk posed to young people by digital technology.
