The ongoing crackdown against pornographic content has led to the arrest of over 50 writers in the province of Anhui, highlighting the Chinese government's intensified scrutiny on erotic fiction.
Many of these detained writers published on the Taiwan-based adult fiction platform Haitang Literature, which has become a controversial space for erotic fiction, particularly the danmei genre.
Sentences for arrested writers varied based on their earnings from erotic fiction, signaling a stark enforcement of laws where those earning over 250,000 yuan face harsher penalties.
China's 1997 obscenity law defines pornography broadly and allows for severe penalties, yet its enforcement has historically been inconsistent, significantly impacting the creative community.
