"Dear customers: Hello! Due to various reasons, Mitsubishi Chuangxiang Internet has experienced a series of changes since December 7th. It has now closed down!... We thank all customers for witnessing the storm of China's Internet with us. Ups and downs!”…
"Dear members of Zhongtian Online, hello! Due to some policy and personal reasons, Zhongtian Online may be closed indefinitely in the near future!"...
Mitsubishi Chuangxiang Internet is an IDC space provider that sells and rents hosts to websites. Yesterday, it declared bankruptcy. Zhongtian Online is a network technology forum that mainly discusses anti-virus software and security software. Yesterday, it announced that it would be shut down. In this unprecedented Internet rectification operation, many provinces and cities adopted the method of closing computer rooms, shutting down all servers, and then checking them one by one before putting them online again. More than 100,000 websites were inaccessible, and even some space providers could not survive the severe cold. Close was selected.
The registration website requires face-to-face identity verification
According to the "Work Plan for Combating Mobile Phone Obscenity and Pornography issued by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology", the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will issue a supplementary notice in January 2010, requiring basic telecommunications companies and access service providers to submit website applications to the Communications Administration for filing. Verify the identity information of the sponsor in person, retain copies of valid certificates, review the website subject information, contact information, access information, etc., and submit a verification certificate of the authenticity of the website registration information to the Communications Administration Bureau where the website is registered.
For websites that have been accessed, the plan requires that “basic telecommunications companies and access service providers must complete the authenticity verification of the registered information of all accessed websites before September 2010.”
At the same time, the plan clearly mentioned that the joint management system for blacklisted enterprises will be fully implemented. According to this system, “the blacklist management of basic telecommunications companies must cover all business promotion channels, access service providers, access resource renters and users, and the blacklist management of access service providers must cover all access mobile websites, The blacklist management of access resource users, domain name registration management and service agencies must cover all domain name holders they manage or provide services.”
"I would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go."
Faced with unprecedented pressure, many IDC computer rooms and access providers have adopted more stringent measures, including first closing computer rooms for inspection and then opening them one by one, and domain name review and whitelisting.
IDC access providers have almost entered a state of "every tree and tree are under attack". It is reported that as long as a problematic website is detected, the entire connected computer room will be shut down. The person in charge of "Western Digital", the largest IDC access provider in Sichuan, said in an interview with the newspaper that in the past, one could turn a blind eye to some "sideline" websites, but now "it is better to kill a thousand by mistake." "Don't let anyone go." The purpose is to ensure the use of most enterprise users.
According to reports, more than 100,000 small and medium-sized websites have been shut down and their income has been reduced to zero. Many of them were caused by fires at the city gates, affecting Chiyu.
"Many webmasters definitely welcome the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology's cleanup of pornographic websites," Dong Qinfeng, the person in charge of Laggard, told a reporter from Nandu. As the founder of the largest webmaster exchange community in China, in his view, what many small and medium-sized webmasters cannot accept is that many computer rooms and access providers adopt a "one-size-fits-all" inventory approach. "If the website cannot be accessed for three days, Baidu's inclusion will be deleted; in the worst case, it will be blacklisted by Baidu, and it may not be restored for three to five years."
According to reports, in response to the difficulties in domain name registration and IDC, many domain name registrars have submitted industry suggestions to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the Communications Administration through CNNIC.
Can’t afford to open a BBS for a personal website?
In addition, another concern of small and medium-sized webmasters is the review threshold for preparatory conditions for interactive websites such as BBS and online forums.
According to reports, according to the relevant regulations on my country's Internet management, one of the prerequisites for applying for special forum registration is that commercial websites must apply for an ICP operating license. The first condition for the ICP certificate is that the operator is a company established in accordance with the law. Companies with registered capital of 1 million or more.
Many IDC access providers have made it clear that interactive websites such as message boards and forums that have not obtained an Internet electronic bulletin service license cannot be accessed. This rule has always been in place, but it is being strictly enforced during this operation. A large number of websites with interactive content such as forums and blogs that could not obtain licenses were shut down.
“Actually, this is a requirement that many small and medium-sized websites cannot meet,” Dong Qinfeng said. Many webmasters are individual entrepreneurs with low academic qualifications. The main reason they choose to do this is because of the low cost. “If there are 100 Wan, what kind of business is bad?"
