10 arrested for writing gay erotica in China as part of nationwide crackdown

China really never learns streisand effect. Now people want to see what they wrote.

They're charged with “Disseminating obscene electronic messages”

Thats actually a law

In 2010, a Chinese court ruling determined erotic material that gains more than 5,000 clicks can be deemed a criminal offense.

Wait, so its not even just gay erotia. Its all erotica? Well only popular erotica. Wtf
