China's Cyberspace Regulator Deletes 1.4 Million Social Media Posts in Crackdown on 'Self-Media' Accounts.

China's Cyberspace Administration has deleted 1.4 million social media posts and closed 67,000 accounts in a two-month crackdown on "self-media" accounts that publish news and information but are not government-run or state-approved. The campaign targeted accounts on popular Chinese social media apps including WeChat, Douyin, and Weibo. The regulator said it had "actively coordinated with public security, market supervision and other departments, to deliver a heavy blow and rectify illegal 'self-media'."
