The QQ division of Tencent has apologized for poor vetting and has since removed the stickers from its site. The stickers were mostly available on tech giant Tencent’s instant messaging platform, QQ, where some users expressed disgust at their tastelessness.

Shanghai-based internet startup Siyanhui created a set of stickers featuring closeups of the women taken from a recent documentary on the last surviving women who were forced into sex slavery by the Japanese military during its occupation of China. App-downloaded stickers trying to be funny at the expense of Chinese women used as sex slaves by Japanese soldiers during World War II have sparked outrage in China - and a fine by the police.
