Access to games on designated days of the week and at designated times. Chinese players are definitely having a hard time and their situation may worsen soon. If the reports prove correct, local teens will not be able to access other forms of entertainment either.
Extension of existing limits
If you are a teenager and you love computer games .. you are out of luck, at least in China. In a country that has brought the current League of Legends world champions to the world, it’s not easy to play. This pleasure is limited to specific hours and days. In total, a teenager can allow himself 180 minutes of pleasure per week.
Additionally, each game published on the Chinese market must undergo a thorough content analysis. The authorities there approve whether a product is suitable for citizens by not containing inappropriate content.
Limited social and other media
As it turns out, gaming limits are just a foretaste of how the Chinese government intends to limit the use of the Internet for the youngest. It sees the web as the source of many threats that may be too heavy for minors to overcome.
This is because local teenagers may lose access to social media and streaming services. The exact details are still under debate, including with the public. The ultimate goal of the Chinese authorities’ efforts is to force service providers and equipment manufacturers to create a special mode dedicated to teenagers. This one would ensure that these would not be able to reach the content undesirable by the government.
