The article "Only by understanding the general environmental situation can we have more room for survival" by King Tu has caused a lot of discussion in the webmaster circle some time ago. I have always wanted to express my views on this article. I read Tuwang's article carefully several times, and it actually has the same meaning as the "Mingshi" in the article "Ten Qualities of Successful Chinese Personal Webmasters" that I wrote in 2008.
For individual webmasters who want to create their own world on the Internet, there is certainly nothing wrong with this, and it is worthy of encouragement and recognition. Because the Internet rectification involves many webmasters' websites, it is reasonable for many webmasters to be dissatisfied. You must know that the website is the webmaster's job. Some webmasters began to personally attack Tuwang after seeing the words in Tuwang's article because the website was closed. This is a common thing in the webmaster circle. But generally speaking, the more the attacker attacks, the less improvement there will be, while the more the attacker is attacked, the more successful the person will be. The government's rectification of the Internet does not mean that it is suppressing the group of individual webmasters. Some webmasters cry out every day that their websites cannot continue to operate. I think this is unfounded.
It is a good thing that the Internet is taken seriously by the government. It is also reasonable to clean up pornographic websites, spam websites and standardize the website access system. There are pornographic sites, marginal sites, garbage sites, SP fraud, click fraud and registration fraud, forced pop-ups, Trojan viruses and other methods are common tactics used by individual webmasters. This Internet environment should have been under control long ago. If you didn't do this and these websites were shut down, you could only consider yourself unlucky. Many well-known websites were not immune this time. It is inevitable that some methods in the government management process are inappropriate, but we can only accept and understand them. Otherwise, what do you want? There is no perfect government and management system in this world, let alone European and American countries. I have many My classmates who studied abroad didn’t say that it was so good. No matter which country it is in, it is impossible for the government to give up the Internet management system and control rights for the benefit of some individual webmasters. Of course, the government did not target individual webmasters this time. As long as there is no problem with your website and you get the registration number, even if you are implicated, you can change the computer room and let you continue to operate. Some people just don't know how lucky they are. If I send you to North Korea to stay for a few days, you won't even be able to eat enough, let alone build a website. How can you still be a good person?
There is nothing to feel aggrieved about if a website is shut down because it is not registered. Every webmaster knows about China’s website filing system. Who can be blamed if it is shut down without filing? Some people will definitely say that there is a problem with the process of filing a website, or that the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology website is defective, etc. In the final analysis, it is still Too troublesome. Why don't you say that the information you filled in is not true, and that there is something wrong with the theme and content of your website? There are a lot of websites with registration numbers. On the webmaster website, I saw 50 articles sharing registration experience, if not 100. Better IDC companies also assist with registration, so why can't you get the registration number for your own website? I really can’t get the registration number. As a webmaster, I should know clearly that it belongs to a black account. Why should I put it on a domestic server? I’m stupid if something happened this time. Some people were very aggrieved and cried and said, "I didn't know the state would investigate, let alone be so strict." Such excuses are simply nonsense. As a webmaster, if you don’t even have any foresight, what kind of website are you going to build?
There are also many websites that have been closed due to copyright issues. The webmasters of these websites are also very unhappy, but the people whose copyrights have been infringed are even more unhappy. From 2005 to 2009, various webmasters had at least a thousand articles on the Internet reminding them not to touch copyrighted things. Sooner or later, the country will take action on this stuff. It’s not that many individual webmasters often say that American space is good. If you try to use American space to build a website with copyrighted materials, you will get a lawyer’s letter and you still don’t know how to shut down your website. In the early years, Kuangren QQ, Piaoyun QQ, and Yulin Mufeng all encountered copyrighted things. Now they have either disappeared or changed careers. What does this mean? If Yulin Mufeng is now clamoring for dissatisfaction with many individual webmasters, Try to continue making copyrighted content. It may not be as simple as disappearing, and the person in charge will have to enter the squad room. Needless to say about the coral polyps and tomato gardens, the closure of BTChina is also a blessing, as long as everything is fine. What we are talking about here is software, film and television, and music. I believe that with the standardization of the Internet, copyright issues in text and pictures will also be taken seriously. Severe crackdowns on copyright infringements are warranted and undisputed.
Finally, let’s talk about forums. Nowadays, it seems that many IDCs are not allowed to host forums. Regardless of whether individual webmasters can continue to operate forums in the end, there are a few things that must be paid attention to. The first is not to discuss sensitive topics. Do not open such a section at all, otherwise your forum will never be peaceful. Yes, such posts can bring traffic, but they can bring more trouble. Another thing is not to discuss state affairs. Many forums will remind netizens in red letters that "discussing political topics is strictly prohibited." You are right to follow this. You can do design forums, shopping forums, or forums for various hobbies, and no one will care about you. But don’t discuss national affairs and military affairs. You are neither iron-blooded nor Kaidi. Because you are a personal webmaster, you have to keep your tail between your legs. If you make tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands by running a forum, the media may praise your ability, but if you create a forum that controls the public opinion of tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people, the country may in turn control you. Public opinion is a terrible thing, and no government will let it go unchecked. This has been the same from ancient times to the present. Why did the U.S. military seize radio stations and newspapers when they captured cities during the world war? This is the truth. Let’s think about it carefully. The same goes for news channels on local websites. Never post things you shouldn’t. This is MAOY’s kindest reminder to you. In addition, it is better not to use local forums as a platform, or at least not allow netizens to discuss things that should not be discussed.
King Tu wrote in the article, "The government will not rob everyone of our business. This is absolutely credible. Just don't rob the government of public opinion, otherwise you will die." What he said is right. Everyone should believe that you can make money on the Internet. People with lots of money. Why do people build websites? Is it to make money, grab public opinion, or create spam? In the final analysis, individual webmasters only build websites to get an income. There are thousands of ways on the Internet, and it is still the same to avoid policies and things that should not be touched. It can be successful. In addition, I think it is illogical for some individual webmasters to attack Tuwang’s articles based on his previous work as a photo site. The Internet environment at that time was completely different from today. King Tu is now a webmaster, which just shows his wisdom and potential. Why don’t these webmasters quickly transform themselves and attack other people who have successfully transformed? Successful people must have reasons for success, and there are also things we should learn from. In this place, using words and making personal attacks will never bring you success.
To a large extent, the personal webmaster's understanding of the situation means keeping up with the situation and studying policies. If you go in the right direction and work hard at the level encouraged by the state, you may get twice the result with half the effort. If you go in the opposite direction, for example, the country is determined to crack down on copyright, and if you rush to build a movie network or music network at this time, you will definitely be in trouble. Building a website for individuals is an activity that requires survival in the cracks. Especially in the current Internet transformation period, various systems and legal environments are not very sound. Only by first complying with society and policies can problems be avoided. As a personal webmaster, you must not be divorced from society and policies, thinking that the website is only an online matter and no one can control it. Personal webmasters must be aware of the situation and fight against the rules and systems in a confused manner. The sacrifice is only for you and not the entire Internet. China's Internet market will get better year by year, and whether it can continue to do so is entirely a personal matter.
