These bans come just a month after China's Ministry of Culture announced that it is in the process of investigating several live-streaming sites including Douyu, Panda.tv, YY and Zhanqi TV for allegedly broadcasting pornographic and overtly violent content.

The investigation is a part of the Chinese government's latest campaign to clamp down on the growing vulgarity on the internet which "harms social morality." The government's censorship campaign is reported to be targeted specifically at young people, who form a large part of the internet users across the country.

According to the latest data, 26 percent of the viewers of live-streaming websites are under 18 years, and 60 percent of those uploading contents on live streaming channels are under 22 years old.

Some Chinese people are unhappy with the latest ban.  Many have vented their frustration about the new rules on social media.

"How do they decide what's provocative when eating a banana?" one user asked.

"They will all start eating cucumbers, and if that's no good, yams," another user said.
