In March 2026, China's Ministry of Public Security commenced a special nationwide campaign aimed at combating illegal gambling conducted by minors on internet platforms. This initiative specifically targets online games and applications that serve as conduits for gambling activities involving underage users. The campaign underscores the government’s commitment to safeguarding minors from gambling-related harm and maintaining social order. Authorities have declared intentions to strengthen regulatory enforcement and conduct thorough investigations to detect and eliminate channels facilitating illegal gambling. This effort aligns with broader public security objectives to improve cyber governance and protect vulnerable groups from exploitation on digital platforms.
