With the advent of the Internet, it is easier for children to be exposed to unhealthy content on the Internet. Web pages may contain pornography, violence, terrorism, gambling and child abuse. Installing filtering software cannot guarantee filtering all unwanted websites, but it can nevertheless limit children's access to most deleterious content.
In Hong Kong, it is illegal to publicly display any obscene and indecent materials. To report an exposure to obscene materials in public, you can make a report to the Hong Kong Internet Service Providers Association (HKISPA). HKISPA is commissioned by Television and Entertainment Licensing Authority (TELA) to handle all complaints related to the "Control of Obscene and Indecent Articles Ordinance (COIAO)". COIAO oversees newspapers, magazines, publications, comics, Internet content, and unclassified movies, videos and CDs. |
