Chinese teenager beaten to death in internet addiction clinic

Chinese evidently take the 'internet addicttion' malody quite seriously.

Quote:

His parents took their son to the Guangxi Qihuang Survival Training Camp in southern China on Saturday, paying 7,000 yuan (£605) for a month of treatment. Deng Fei, his father, told supervisors that his son was shy and introverted and they should avoid putting too much pressure on him during the first couple of days. They agreed.

Instead, the boy was placed in solitary confinement shortly after his arrival and then beaten by his trainers who scolded him for running too slowly when he was ordered to go jogging. He was pronounced dead in the early hours of Sunday morning.

Indeed. Internet addiction is dangerous. The young man might just have read something that he wasn't supposed to read. Can't have that.

Internet use is a moral sickness and only the harshest of punishments are fit for those who use it.

A mind is a horrible thing to waste.

But killing the body is no big thing. :o

Didn't the same happen to some US juveniles while being in boot camps some time ago?

I love it when some people believe they can do whatever they want with others.:nope:
We've had our share of that a few decades ago... not a too nice time....
