The Chinese government has introduced new legislation setting tighter restrictions on Internet cafes and entertainment content, including video games, according to an Associated Press report. New regulations prohibit teenagers from entering Internet cafes or karaoke bars, deeming them unfit and potentially corrupting environments for students.

Great idea! I’ll do my best to limit my kid’s game time. I use parental control software to control my child’s on-line activity called Ez Internet Timer http://www.internettimer.net. But how could I restrict Internet access in Internet Cafes?

It is not right. Everyone wants to have some entertainment. The government is getting income as entertainment tax. Putting such restrictions effect the internet business and cafes.
