URUMQI, Aug. 6 -- China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region on Thursday launched an online platform for the public to report illegal and harmful information found on the Internet.
People in Xinjiang are encouraged to provide tip-offs related to terror propaganda, religious extremism and online rumors.
The Uygur and Kazakh language versions of the platform are also available. People can access the platform through more than 300 websites in Xinjiang as well as through instant messaging services like WeChat and QQ.
Xinjiang has around 15,000 registered websites and more than 17 million Internet users. Although the Internet has changed people's work and life, it has also brought security problems.
