To ensure the smooth operation of the Internet during the Beijing Olympics, higher authorities have ordered that websites be monitored according to the following criteria:

1. Carefully check website content, update website keyword filter, filter all content, monitor websites according to but not limited by the following criteria, or DNS.COM.CN will shut down the website without prior notice:

a. any pornographic content
b. gambling, lottery activity, etc.
c. prohibited goods (firearms, spam machines, explosives, hallucinogens, invoices, etc.)
d. violate the country's peaceful unification policy, oppose the government, etc.)
e. all other activity forbidden by the country's laws and regulations

To the websites that violate the above strictures and are closed, we will not be lenient. For mistaken decisions, please accord with the agreement on filtering keywords and fax it to DNS.COM.CN service department (service department fax: 4006830000-5757), and a service person will investigate and resolve the problem.

2. From July 16-September 20 2008, if junk mail is sent and complained about, the offending website will be shut down without prior notice.

To protect your ability to operate, we strongly recommend that you strictly monitor your website's content and remove any illegal content; if you have discussion forums, we recommend you shut down those forums, if not shut down, we advise that you remove anonymous content and implement 24 hour monitoring of your site so as to remove illegal content immediately.

We hope that everyone cooperates and carefully monitors their own site, remove all illegal content and let's all make sure the Beijing Olympics are successful.
