    Seems to be the full (albeit short) article.

    > The draft regulations would also ban the use of other people's personal information to create digital humans without consent, or using virtual humans to bypass identity verification systems.

    Fair enough. Many can agree with that.

    > Digital humans are also prohibited from disseminating content that endangers national security, inciting subversion of state power, promoting secession or undermining national unity.

    Now you're asking too much!

    The main part the CCP is pushing is this:

    > Digital humans are also prohibited from disseminating content that endangers national security, inciting subversion of state power, promoting secession or undermining national unity, the draft rules said.

    All the other ethical or safety stuff in here is just a way to dress up the authoritarianism of these regulations.
