Reports from the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (CASS) claim that there has been a 41 percent drop in the number of websites over the last year, with 1.91 million websites left at the end of last year. Experts believe tighter regulations and the blocking of sensitive forums have contributed to the decline.

China had already blocked websites such as Facebook, YouTube and Twitter, and in the aftermath of the "Jasmine Revolution" that swept across much of the Middle East, Chinese officials have tightened online regulations even more.
