Chinese police have shut down a Web site that sold real-time porn and arrested 33 people, according to the news Wednesday, part of a campaign which led to the shut-down of 44,000 Web sites and arrest of 868 people last year. China launched a crackdown on online pornography and “unhealthy” Web content after Chinese President Hu Jintao said the country’s sprawling Internet posed a threat to social stability.

The site was based in Taiwan and the customers watched pornographic performances that were staged in China, Xinhua news agency said.
