Zhihu, is it forbidden to tell fortune online?

A number of platforms have launched IP territorial display functions to combat network chaos.

A number of platforms have launched IP territorial display functions to combat network chaos. The account IP location displayed on the platform is the network location of the last post or comment of the user, which is displayed to domestic provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) and foreign countries (regions). A number of platforms have launched IP territorial display functions to combat network chaos.

Several platforms have launched IP territorial display function to combat network chaos 1 Recently, major Internet platforms have successively launched "IP address display function of network users" to display overseas countries and domestic provinces and cities, and this function cannot be turned off, and IP addresses are mandatory display items. This incident has aroused widespread concern.

Last month, the administrator of @ Weibo announced that it would test and open the IP attribution display of some users in China. After the test is normal, related functions will be opened to other users one after another; In foreign countries, the platform has previously supported 15, and the IP attribution of overseas countries is displayed as "country name", while countries that do not support it are temporarily displayed as "overseas". The number of countries will continue to increase by 24 and will gradually expand in the future.

This function will display the IP attribution area of the last blog post or comment published by the user in the last month in "Personal Homepage-Personal Information".

Following Sina Weibo and today's headlines, major platforms such as Tik Tok, Zhihu, Aauto Quicker, Xiaohongshu and Baijiahao will display users' IP attribution function online.

Today's headlines and Tik Tok both announced that in order to maintain a real and orderly discussion atmosphere and reduce bad behaviors such as impersonating parties to hot events, malicious rumors, and smashing traffic, the official plans to show the IP ownership of accounts on personal homepages, and related functions have been tested recently, and will be fully launched in other scenarios according to the test results.

Xiaohongshu's announcement shows that in order to maintain the real interactive community atmosphere and prevent local netizens from pretending to be hot events to spread rumors, Xiaohongshu plans to display IP attribution area information on the user's personal homepage.

Zhihu also said that the community intends to gradually open the public display of users' IP territories. At that time, the Q&A page will display the IP domain of the user when publishing the content.

Generally speaking, this move aims at cracking down on illegal and evil forces such as online rumors and disturbing public opinion.

In view of the recent frequent network chaos such as cyber violence, malicious traffic and rumors. However, it is difficult for netizens to make a reasonable judgment on the authenticity of online speech and information sources, so the practice of displaying IP territories on the platform can help users improve their discrimination ability and maintain the order of the platform to a certain extent.

However, the launch of this function has triggered a series of debates.

Some netizens questioned whether the IP address directly exposed the user's location and was forced to make it public, which violated the user's privacy. In addition, the accuracy of the country to the province can be predicted. No matter what issues are discussed in the future, it is easy to shift to regional attacks, which will lead to many contradictions.

So, does leaking IP address violate personal privacy?

According to the Civil Code, IP ownership definitely belongs to the category of personal information. However, in the eyes of legal persons, the identity of the information source cannot be directly confirmed through comprehensive analysis for public resource information that cannot be modified by the platform alone, so the ownership of public IP is not enough to invade privacy. However, it is undeniable that the disclosure of IP territorial information has indeed expanded the scope of the original public information, and the platform should establish a complete and systematic notification procedure and relief procedure.

A number of platforms have launched IP territorial display functions to combat network chaos. Recently, Tik Tok, Today's Headline, Aauto Quicker, Zhihu, Baijiahao and other platforms have announced that they will launch the IP territorial display function for users.

Today's headline announcement said that in order to maintain a real and orderly discussion atmosphere and reduce bad behaviors such as pretending to be a hot event party, malicious rumors, traffic, etc., it is planned to display the account IP territory on the personal homepage.

The account IP displayed on the platform belongs to the network location when the user posted or commented for the last time, and is displayed to domestic provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) and foreign countries (regions). The IP location of the account is subject to the information provided by the operator, and the related display does not support manual opening or closing. Related functions will be tested in the web version from now on, and will be fully launched in other scenarios according to the test situation.

Tik Tok announced that it plans to display the IP location of the account on the personal homepage and other places, and related functions will be tested at the end of April, and will be fully launched in other scenarios according to the test results.

Aauto faster announced that in order to maintain a good community order and prevent some netizens from rubbing traffic, spreading false information, pretending to be parties and other behaviors that interfere with normal discussions in hot events, it is planned to display the IP territorial function of the account on the personal homepage and other places.

Xiaohongshu announced that in order to maintain the real interactive community atmosphere and prevent local netizens from pretending to be hot events, it plans to gradually open the function of "displaying account IP territory on personal homepage".

Zhihu announced that in order to better maintain the ecological atmosphere of the community and crack down on rumors and rumors, the community plans to gradually open the public display of "user IP territory". At that time, the Q&A page will display the IP domain of the user when publishing the content.

Baidu announced that in order to further strengthen the ecological governance of the platform content and prevent the spread of false information, the platform will add a "display function of publishing position" on its personal homepage in the near future to maintain the communication order.

It is reported that in March this year, Sina Weibo announced the launch of the function of "User Profile Page Shows Recent Posting Location".

This function is of great significance to platform governance.

According to the 265438+20th Century Business Herald, an Internet technology expert told 2 1 Century Business Herald that from a technical point of view, it is not difficult for the platform to display the IP attribution of users, because Internet services are all delivered through IP addresses, while many platforms used to display "users from a certain place", which was actually achieved through IP attribution.

But for platform governance, this function is of great significance. Because in frequent hot events, the behavior of rubbing traffic has been repeatedly banned, and even a large number of rumors will breed. Through IP attribution, at least the content can be preliminarily screened to distinguish which users are really in hot events.

In March this year, the National Network Information Office announced the "Qing" series of special action tasks in 2022, including the special action to crack down on online rumors. It is reported that the special action proposes to comprehensively clean up the rumor information involving political economy, cultural history and popular science of people's livelihood, and label and clarify it.

Compacting the main responsibility of the website platform and strengthening the identification of all kinds of information generated by sensitive fields and sensitive events; Timely verify information from unauthorized sources with great influence and wide spread. Establish a traceability mechanism to seriously investigate the relevant responsibilities for first-time offenders, repeat offenders and platforms and accounts with serious circumstances. Establish and improve the working mechanism to control network rumors.

The display of IP attribution is also an important measure for Weibo, Today Headline, Tik Tok and other platforms to further promote the fight against rumors. An Internet source said that displaying the IP attribution function is also expected to become the standard for future Internet content platforms.

A number of platforms have launched IP territorial display functions to combat network chaos. Once upon a time, the early Internet was highly sought after. In the virtual world, people can communicate freely across time and space, which is a utopia that many people dream of.

With the popularity of the Internet in China, today, when everyone can access the Internet, the network environment becomes smoky, rumors, cyber violence and other chaos are common, and many people are hurt because they vent their malice at will.

Virtual identity and free communication amplify the evil in human nature. When surfing the internet becomes a daily life, it is more and more necessary to manage the network environment.

Multi-platform will force IP territorial display.

Where there are many people, there are often mixed fish and dragons. In the past, in order to restrain users' speech, some platforms would set forbidden words, which would not be displayed after being triggered, and some would prohibit publishing during review, and they would also set up functions such as complaint reporting, harassment prevention and blocking, but these measures could not play a very good role.

Sina Weibo has been criticized by netizens for its navy, cyber violence, rumors and soft pornography. And was fined for interviews and rectified many times. Recently, Sina Weibo once again introduced new regulations to open IP to individuals who make false statements, which won the support of many people. This move may reduce inappropriate comments on the platform from the root of the account.

According to the news released by the administrator of Weibo, Weibo will display the user's recent posting place on the user's personal information page. The most direct reason for launching this measure is that during the period of Russia and Ukraine, individual users pretended to be local netizens and posted false information on the platform.

After the introduction of this measure, other people can see the IP territory of posting users, which will directly expose the impostor to the public's field of vision, and the public can quickly distinguish the truth of his remarks, and also add some fear to other people who make inappropriate remarks.

Weibo made a good start. Recently, a number of Internet platforms have launched the same function.

Tik Tok, Car Faster, Little Red Book, Today's Headline, Zhihu, etc. have successively launched the function of "IP address display of network users", which can display foreign countries and domestic provinces and cities, and users can't turn it off, that is to say, IP addresses are mandatory display items.

Specifically, the statements issued by today's headlines, Tik Tok, Aauto Quicker, Xiaohongshu and other platforms all display IP addresses on personal homepages. The IP address is the network location when the user posted or commented for the last time. This address is subject to the information provided by the operator. Manual opening or closing is not supported.

At present, this function is still in the testing stage on many platforms, aiming at cracking down on evil groups such as network rumors and disturbing public opinion. I believe this measure will be tested and formally implemented soon.

With this feature, posting comments on these platforms has a heavy constraint. The display location is more realistic, which is a reminder and a deterrent-anyone should be cautious and be himself on the Internet.

Keyboard players and web surfers will have nothing to hide.

Netizens have suffered from keyboard man and cyber bully for a long time.

Recently, a Shanghai woman offered 200 yuan a reward for running errands for her, but she jumped to her death because of cyber violence. The cause and result of the incident are not complicated. A lady in Shanghai asked her little brother for help to deliver a takeaway to her father who was deaf 27 kilometers away. During isolation control, it is not easy to do this. The lady wanted a reward, but the younger brother refused to accept anything. Finally, the lady had to help her little brother charge 200 yuan for the phone bill.

It should have been a warm and positive thing, but after it spread on the Internet, the lady was reviled on the Internet, because a keyboard player questioned that the lady rewarded 200 yuan too little. Soon after, the lady fell to her death. According to her husband, this woman is timid and kind. After encountering cyber violence, she lost control of her emotions and will be held accountable for cyber violence by legal means.

A good thing turned into a tragedy, and a fresh life passed away because of cyber violence, which made people sad and angry. In addition to this case, in recent years, there have been more and more tragedies caused by keyboard man and cyber gang.

For example, Liu Xue, who was only 15 years old in June, 5438, chose to end his life after suffering a lot of unwarranted accusations and verbal attacks.

In June 5438+10 last year, an online female celebrity claimed that she had severe depression during the live broadcast and took out pesticides. It should have been a live broadcast of her feelings and help, but she was encouraged by some netizens to drink pesticides quickly. As a result, she really drank pesticides and died soon.

Many others have been harassed by cyber attacks. Like the families of the victims of China Eastern Airlines before, because they sent a video of memories, they were accused by a large number of netizens of using the death of their loved ones to rub hot spots; There is also a woman who was derailed by rumors and was "publicly pronounced" on the Internet. Even though she was later sentenced for spreading rumors, her life was negatively affected.

Things like this may be staged online every day.

In the era of entertainment first, words, pictures, short videos, live broadcasts and other forms appear, with few platform constraints and difficult management, which makes people express recklessly and releases malicious beasts in people's hearts.

In these rumors, cyber violence and other criminals, some slander and attack others because of ignorance, boredom and eye-catching. They stand on the moral high ground, hiding behind the keyboard, intentionally or unintentionally hurting others.

Other users publish and spread inappropriate remarks in an organized and purposeful manner, grandstanding, harvesting traffic, disturbing public opinion, dividing circles, etc. The existence of this water army is also a major cancer of the Internet.

In order to reduce these chaos, the state and the platform are constantly rectifying and introducing policies and regulations to restrict netizens' speech.

At the beginning of this year, relevant departments launched a special campaign for a period of 1 month, in which five major rectification directions were "cyber violence, spreading rumors and other issues".

At present, a series of special actions of "Qinglang" are still in progress. On April 15, the special action of "Clear and Clean up the Chaos in the Field of Webcast and Short Video" was officially launched.

After the Liu Xue incident, Weibo disposed of 92 related accounts, of which more than 40 accounts that committed cyber violence were permanently banned; Later, the "riot mode" and "comment firewall" were launched with one click to reduce personal attacks and malicious harassment.

In this regard, Zhihu also has the functions of forcibly closing comments and forcibly opening the pre-trial review of comments. , and adopt manual and systematic double audit mode to filter offensive content as much as possible.

囎囎囎 also set up intelligent private message interception, private message garbage bin and anti-harassment mode to help users isolate bad information; There are also little red books and a auto faster, which add more restrictions and choices to the interaction.

This time, several platforms have successively launched mandatory display of IP ownership, which will make rumors and abusers invisible.

The cost of online speech is very low, which leads to many people's reckless malicious rumor attacks. However, after the speaker's IP address is displayed, the threshold for speaking is raised, and the IP addresses of those violent, rumor-making and malicious accounts will be exposed, and the users of these accounts will also converge.

Building a clear Internet has a long way to go.

In order to clean up the rage and unhealthy trends on the internet, the state is taking measures. In addition to the "Clear Wave" campaign, on October 26th last year, the National Network Information Office issued the "Regulations on the Management of Internet User Account Name Information (Draft for Comment)", which revised the version implemented on October 26th.

In the Draft for Comment, the relevant provisions on the territoriality of intellectual property rights have been added, and the recent introduction of new regulations on several platforms is obviously to embrace this policy.

It is worth mentioning that after the news that IP belongs to major platforms was announced, many people supported this function very much, but there are also many people who are worried that this project cannot be closed manually. Does it infringe on the privacy of users? At the same time, after displaying the IP address, will it lead to the escalation of war abuse and extend to regional attacks, causing more contradictions?

It can be seen that the initial intention of this move is very good, but the worry is not unreasonable, and there are still many places to be improved.

Since the governance of network environment should take into account the legitimate rights and interests of users' privacy, how to balance constraints and freedom is not only a measure that needs to be improved, but also a problem that needs to be solved in the whole process of Internet governance.

It seems that there is still a long way to go to build a clear Internet environment and IP belongs to IP.
