Net group urges operators to step up controls on apps
Mobile network operators and smartphone application providers in Beijing drew up an agreement on Wednesday to enhance internal controls, improve supervision of the content of apps and keep the industry in good order.
The growth of mobile technology has brought a great deal of convenience for users who surf the Internet or keep in touch via social media networks while on the move.
However, smartphone applications with security gaps, or that are used to spread rumors and pornography, have created problems, according to the Beijing Internet Association.
