The newly revised the Protection of Minors and the Regulation of Cyber-protection of Minors have estab-lished a ternary regulatory system on cyber-information,breaking away from the previous binary framework divided by"il-legality"and clearly proposing regulatory measures against"cyber-information that may affect the physical and mental health of minors",namely"unhealthy information".This is a significant innovation both institutionally and conceptually.Identification and notification are the two major practical challenges of regulating"unhealthy information".The regulation of"unhealthy information"should be based on the concept of special and collaborative protection for minors,balancing the legal values of protection of minors,freedom of expression and interest of commerce,and establishing the mechanism of multi-party participation and collaborative governance to allocate responsibilities and obligations.To regulate"unhealthy information"should draw on the existing legislative experience,establish a regulatory approach of"typification",a legal policy of"modesty"and the applicable condition of"exhaustiveness",and accurately set the standard and build the norm-ative method and procedure for identifying"unhealthy information".The relevant departments should follow the basic theo-ry of regulating"unhealthy information"and address the regulatory difficulties effectively according to our current condi-tions.
