In response to the recent issue of a large amount of pornographic and vulgar content live-streaming on the Kuaishou platform, under the guidance of the National Internet Information Office, the Beijing Internet Information Office has lawfully launched an investigation into Beijing Kuaishou Technology Co., Ltd. for suspected illegal activities.

On February 6, the Beijing Internet Information Office, in accordance with the Cybersecurity Law of the People's Republic of China, the Administrative Penalty Law of the People's Republic of China, and other laws and regulations, imposed a warning and a fine of 119 million yuan on Beijing Kuaishou Technology Co., Ltd., and ordered it to make corrections within a specified period, dispose of accounts in accordance with the law and contract, and deal with responsible individuals strictly.
