More wise words on the Interweb from SCMP readers (subscription required):

First, I suggest the government should set up an authority to monitor the internet.

It should consist of people from various occupations, such as social workers, teachers and psychologists. Through the experience they have accumulated in their respective professions, they can judge whether information is obscene or not.

Then they would have the right to delete it. Of course, the authorities cannot monitor everything. Therefore, a hotline should also be set up for citizens to publish or report their opinions on this issue. In addition, the government should promote the message warning people of the risks they bear when reading obscene material.

It is the moral responsibility of everyone not to handle obscene material.

Eunice Chan Yu-sze, Kwun Tong

Well, good luck with deleting material from the Internet…

    Truly hilarious.
    The editors at SCMP must have a laugh before publishing some of these letters. Of course, this “committee” or “authority” is reminiscent of something out of the Soviet Union – but its proposed by a citizen of Hong Kong. Do people really value their freedom?
