Google steps up Anti-porn in China; too bad they won't see the Trinoma Mall Scandal

We may actually have discounted the impact of viewing downloads or video steams of the Hayden Kho Katrina Halili/Maricar Reyes/Vicky Belo sex tapes plus the Brian Revilla/Maui Taylor sex tapes. Who knows how many children in China will be named Hayden, Katrina, Maricar, Vicky or Maui?!

Heck, perhaps they get to watch the Trinoma Mall scandal, which is the current rage right now after a top rating TV program showed the video or some part of it. (Which really ought to get these TV stations to consider their policy towards showing these sex scandal videos because it does tend to increase the demand for the videos, thereby contributing to their spread.)

If you're at all interested, here's a download link for the Trinoma Sex Scandal video which I found on Flesh Asia Daily. Click here or here.

With over a billion Chinese, it would probably be a good idea to do whatever can be done to slow down their population growth rate.

I'd say this move by google ain't completely about keeping the Chinese from being corrupted by pornographic content. But rather, it's about keeping Chinese raunchiness under control.
Here's an article swiped from gmanew.tv:

BEIJING — Google Inc. said Friday that it would step up efforts to stop pornography reaching users in China after a mainland watchdog found the search engine turned up a large number of links to obscene and vulgar sites.

"We have been continually working to deal with pornographic content, and material that is harmful to children, on the Web in China," a statement from the company said.

It added that it had renewed efforts to keep the Internet in China clean after noticing criticism posted Thursday to the Web site of the mainland watchdog, the China Internet Illegal Information Reporting Center.

The watchdog said that despite official warnings, Google was still failing to "filter pornographic contents from its search engine results according to China's relevant laws and regulations." It said tests found that the search engine provided links to a large number of lewd and vulgar pictures, videos and articles, though it gave no specific examples.

China, which has the world's largest population of Internet users at more than 298 million, also has one of the world's tightest controls over the Internet. The government bans online pornography and this year launched a nationwide crackdown that led to the closing of more than 1,900 Web sites.
Since posting an entry on the Hayden Kho Katrina Halili/Maricar Reyes/Vicky Belo sex tapes plus the Brian Revilla/Maui Taylor sex tape, I've had nothing but visits for these entries. (Just look at my feedjit widget.)

I am a political observer and chronicler by trade. While I do enjoy the stats, I really don't think it is doing much for my reputation as a serious political writer.

Nobody really likes to read about politics, especially Philippine politics. You'd be lucky to get more than a couple of dozen visits a day on what you'd suppose to be an earth shaking political development -- like the Constituent Assembly and the Anti-Charter Change protests or even General Danny Lim's statment which has shades of a call to rebellion.

After researching all kinds of stats for Filipino political blogs, only Ellen Tordesillas seems to be making a killing in terms of stats. Of course, she has the advantage of being regularly featured in Inquirer.net and that, I think, contributes significant traffic to her site.

But even then, she only gets 18,000 to 25,000 visits a month. Compared to Starmometer which gets 214,000 or more visits a month, that's just about one or two days of traffic.

This is why, I have kept on thinking about gradually veering away from political blogging and going into other high traffic (therefore higher paying) blog topics.

Porn-fu anyone?
