Peking University recently announced that in response to frequently seen profan- ity and malicious rumors by some netizens on Internet forums and bulletin boards,it is considering modifying its school rules to ban this form of behavior online. China now has 9.200 million Internet users for whom being online is part of modern cul- ture.Internet offers room to express opinions and ideas freely but it’s also a way for people to release the stress of life.It’s inevitable that this freedom is abused,resulting in all forms of insults,damaging gossip and the spreading of lies.Because of the lack of self-restraint and imposed disciplines,this kind of commu- nication is rapidly lowering moral standards.
