'''Yang Yongxin''' (杨永信) is a controversial Chinese clinical psychiatrist who advocated and practiced electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) as a cure for Internet addiction in teenagers. Because of his tyrannical management, he has appeared in ''Dead by Daylight'' as a DLC character and Chinese game focused on him called ''Mysteries of Fence''.

Yang started to use ECT on his teenage son because of "beganing to show addictive behavior". Later, he set up the high controversional Internet Addiction Treatment Center. Medias were interested in his programe, and published a book called ''Fighting the Internet Demon'' (战网魔) and produced a documentary film by the same name. In the film, World of Warcraft is attacked and Yang is described as the savior who save "the missing teenagers" from "Internet Addiction" regardless of the controvertional methods.

Yang's center is claimed to have "Patients Commitee" and "Parents Commitee" and he even has "Special Operations" to catch anyone who mananged to escape the center and it's revealed that the Special Operations can be around the whole China. The Patients Commitee is to expose some patients who disobey the rule. The rule is strict enough that it can be easily touched. The Parents Committee is more like a cult which he and brainwashed parents try to persuade new member to admit his treatment effect. Also, if parents tell their dissatisfaction to Yang Yongxin, the patient will quickly receive ECT. The Parents Committee also threats other parents who wants to quit and acts as "cyber navy" to eliminate negative images of Yang Yongxin.

Another menacing rule is the "long term therapy", which parents have the power to report any "disobedience" and if they do, the patients will be catch back to the center by the "Special Operations". Also, if patient gives away any details (especially negative details) of the center, he/she will be caught back by the "Parents Commitee".

His Internet Addiction Treatment Center has been widely accused of violation of basic humanity. His Center has a tight class system and rule system that new patients are in the lowest class and are frequently forced to receive ECT. He claimed that ECT is "checking up" and he claimed that only patient who really has "Internet Addition" will feel the pain. He doesn't hesitate to increase the quantity of electricity until patient is forced to admit himself "having Internet Addition" and kneel to him with tears or they will be punished by ECT again. When patient is considered as a "obedient" patient, he/she will be promoted to a higher class which has the power of drawing circles in someone's name (According to Yang's rule, if patient is circled ten times in a week, he/she will be punished by the ECT.) and those who are circled will be punished by the ETC operated by Yang Yongxin himself. Also, higher class will receive less punishment.
