國家擬立法保護未成年人上網 禁止通宵玩網遊大綱

China is planning to ban onLine games for minors from midnight to 8:00 am, according to a draft regulation on the protection of minors issued by the Office of the Central Leading Group for Cyberspace Affairs.
據中央網絡事務領導小組辦公室日前發佈的一份未成年人保護條例草案顯示，中國正計劃禁止未成年人在午夜到凌晨8點這一時段之間玩兒網遊。

Experts believe it will be a powerful measure to prevent minors' Internet addiction. But implementation of the policy requires not only users' registration information, but a verification and recognition system for minors.
專家認爲這將是一項預防未成年人網癮的有力措施。但是要實施這項政策不僅僅需要用戶的註冊信息，還需要一個未成年人認證和識別系統。

By June 2016, the total number of China's netizens who are minors reached 160 million, accounting for 23 percent of the country's netizens.
截止2016年6月，中國未成年網民數量已經達到了1.6億，佔全部網民數量的23%。

Given that 90.1 percent of minors in the country have online access, the online world has a profound influence on them. Therefore, the prevention of Internet addiction among minors has become an important issue for the country.
由於中國90.1%的未成年人都能上網，網絡世界對他們產生了深遠的影響。因此預防未成年人網癮已經成爲了中國一項重要的課題。

Liu Chunquan, a lawyer from a law firm in Shanghai, believes the country should implement such measures, since minors are unable to effectively control themselves, and addiction to online games may harm their mental and physical health.
劉春泉是上海某律師事務所的一名律師，他認爲國家應該實施這樣的措施，因爲未成年人無法有效控制自己，而沉迷網遊可能會損害他們的身心健康。

However, China Youth University of Political Studies Vice President Lin Wei told Legal Weekly that implementation of the "midnight ban" should be based on a series of supporting mechanisms, such as users' registration information. Lin said the ban would be less effective if it fails to identify minors from adult users.
不過，中國青年政治學院副院長林維在接受《法制週報》採訪時表示，執行這一“午夜禁令”應該基於一系列配套機制，例如用戶註冊信息。林維稱，如果不能區分未成年人和成年人的話，這一禁令的有效性將會大減。
