China which already boosts world’s largest population of internet users, now has more than 50 million bloggers, according to Xinhua news agency – which in turn was quoting figures from the Internet Society of China. The Internet Society claims that there are more than 100 million blogs in the country, meaning that many people maintain more than one blog. The explosion in unregulated media and information outlets is hampering government’s efforts to clamp down and restrict information access and dissemination to the population in the conservative country.
