Taking a page from China's public policy rulebook, Los Angeles City Council passed an ordinance restricting access to cyber cafes for minors and requiring Internet providing establishments to install video cameras. The cafes will need a police permit to operate.
Citing problems with truancy and juvenile violence, the ordinance makes it illegal for school-age kids to be in cyber cafes during school hours or after 10 p.m. They must provide identification upon request.Monday, January 19, 2009
