Quiet 2 weeks of China -Open online opening, are you continuing the national monitoring?

It was a quiet experiment.Foreign websites, such as "YouTube" and "Instagram", were available for two weeks for two weeks.The Communist Party administration seems to be trying to monitor who is looking at the foreign Internet to the Internet around the world, while seeing who is looking at foreign countries.

The "TUBER" mobile browser supported by Sanrokuzo Safety Technology (360 Security Technology), a major cyber security company related to the Chinese government, has appeared in late September without flashy advertisements, and Facebook and Google, It has enabled access to sites that have been banned, such as the New York Times.It was welcomed by Chinese internet users to be able to directly browse these content from a smartphone browser without illegal VPN (virtual private net).

China Net user praise app disappears -disappears to foreign sites

The Chinese government is experimenting with Tuber, which appeared in multiple app stores, including Huawei (Huawei) operations, to access sites that were forbidden by 944 million online users.It suggested that.It was on the 10th of this month that the Tuber, which had the characteristics of censorship by the state, had disappeared from the application site without explanation.

According to Fergus Ryan, a researcher at Fergus Ryan of the Australian Strategic Policy Research Institute (ASPI), "it is possible to consider it in a more open direction, and it is interesting to develop the tuber, but if it actually works, app users.Is strictly monitored, and information that can be accessed via this platform will be applied to the censorship filter. "

"Censor 2.It is a situation that can be said.The Chinese government is confident that it has gained the support of the people by well -containing the expansion of the new colon virus infection (COVID19).It can also be seen that the government has become easier to accept the idea of accepting at least some people to expand online access to the quality of scientific and technology research immediately.

The Chinese government also recognizes that anti -China emotions are spreading outside the country.The government, which is increasingly monitoring the national surveillance, has censorship to Chinese companies such as Tencent Holdings (Tencho) and the video posting application "Tiktok", and is critically critical to the government.If you find something that is not suitable for the government policy, we are calling to delete it.

In China, there is a large Internet information censorship system called "Great Firewall", but VPN has been commonly used to go through this system.The government has been working on hundreds of VPN exclusion for several years, and the idea of a nationally -approved Internet window can reduce the usefulness of VPN.

The Tuber has been downloaded 5 million times from the Huawei app store at least in late September.This enthusiastic popularity has been partly due to the fact that the development company of the app has been supported by a big and wealthy Jou Kou, a major technology industry.

Mr. Zhou abolished his security company, a strange tiger 360, in 2016, but it is unlikely that a strange tiger has developed and distributed a tube without government approval.It is reported that the company has been working on a project for the People's Liberation Army and has advised the government for highly confidential cyber security issues.In May this year, the US Ministry of Commerce was launched sanctions to two companies' companies.The United States, including the two companies, including universities, has been determined that the United States has a connection with the People's Liberation Army and may threaten national security.

It is not known whether the government has ordered the exclusion of the tuber from the app store.The spokeswoman of the Sanroku Safety Technology Technology is preparing for comments.Bloomberg News has been trying to cover the Chinese Cyber Space Management Bureau (CAC) by telephone and email since 10th, but has not responded.

It is believed that Tuber had censorship of some content with YouTube and the like.According to the names of President Xi Jinping in Chinese, only seven video clips posted by three accounts, Shanghai, Tianjin, and Macau, were posted.There was nothing to come up with the name of Xi, who was also the general secretary of the Communist Party in English.

The phone number of all smartphones in China was linked to the Chinese identification number, and the tube download required a mobile phone number.

ASPI researcher Ryan said, "The fact that news about specific apps has spread rapidly in China and causing great excitement is a proof of the desire to be dedicated to China who wants to access the Internet around the world."。
