Ministry of Industry announced that due to some companies that make heavy workload, time constraints, lack of preparation, the actual situation, you can postpone the pre-installed "Green Dam - Youth Escort" Despite the deployment of the Green Dam suspended, but concerns about inappropriate content on the network, and Internet filtering software on the green doubt, is the formation of a new global anxiety.
June 11, 2009, Shandong Weifang City Kuiwen District Experimental Primary School for the school computers have been installed with "harmful information" software. Photo relaxation there from July 1 last hours, the Ministry of Industry announced that due to some companies that make heavy workload, time constraints, lack of preparation, the actual situation, you can postpone the pre-installed "Green Dam - Youth Escort "(hereinafter referred to as the Green Dam).
Prior to this, according to the Ministry of Industry "on the computer, Internet filtering software pre-installed green notice", July 1, the letter of this work to spend 41.7 million yuan Department of green public procurement Internet filtering software should be pre-installed in the subsequent China's domestic production and sales of all personal computers, for the next year, Internet users free of charge.
Although the Ministry of Industry said that the software is not mandatory to install, free to uninstall, it does not restrict freedom of speech functions, but still caused considerable controversy.
China Youth College for Political Sciences Associate Professor Zhou Ze is one of the many different views. He was on June 11 letter to the State Council and the Department of Engineering submitted a question "notification" legitimate and reasonable proposal, but as of June 29, Zhou Ze south are weekly, said he has not received a clear answer.
Public interest law organization "Public Union" also submitted to the authorities a similar proposal, also did not receive a response. "Public Union" executive director Tian Zhuang Qi said, did not respond to the "expected thing", according to his knowledge, a similar proposal submitted by organizations and individuals more than the family, but "received no reply."
Southern Weekly reporter contacted the Ministry of Industry would like to know the details of the deployment of the Green Dam, but the evening ended June 30 filing, has not received a reply.
Before the body that there is good reason to rapidly deploy the software. From the China Youth Research Society survey released in May of this year shows that in China, young people under the age of 25, almost half of people visit porn sites, and thus had a considerable number of social problems. In China, more than 300 million Internet users, mostly teenagers. Vortex in the Green Dam
Ministry of Industry and dissemination of information in the two days before the event one of the parties - PC makers stand on this matter, has undergone subtle changes. PC makers in a public relations officer to the Southern Weekly reporter responses, quietly, "will comply with the requirements of the implementation of Chinese laws and regulations" into a "follow the Government to go." He said a week can give more specific instructions.
Internet security experts Zhao Gang (a pseudonym) appears, "notification" of the mind is good, but there are still some green dam safety problems, which led to its not one of the main deployment schedule, "PC makers to install only the most Riga, a media installation package, available to the user chooses to install ", but more likely, to nothing.
"This stuff really quickly deployed, is harmful." Zhao Gang said, "For now, the problems in the application it will certainly not less, will increase the amount of customer consultation. PC makers are not stupid, they Customer Service is not wages. "He said, after a week in the Ministry of Public Security's Internet Security judged regular meeting, said almost all the security vendors have great green dam safety risk," we are very worried. "
Earlier, researchers at the University of Michigan warned that the software found in the Green dam safety problems, and not the developers release a new version of the restored completely disappeared.
"The most serious problem the software is to enhance the long-range privileges, an attacker can get a full control of the machine flaw. If only do graphics and text filtering, would not be so strong voices of doubt - the software to do too much should not do their own thing. "Zhao Gang said," green dam monitoring, not only for the browser, there is a normal word processing, chat tools. text filtering defects seriously affect the normal use of many software . Just think, you are writing a document, the results found should filter the text, the window was immediately shut down, also how to use this software? some testing he would face such a situation, the text filter is very much ... ... really want to help we abolish Chinese characters. "
In Zhao Gang's view, if Green Dam can provide good enough security patch, can solve these problems still possible, but leave time is not Green Dam. "They are ready for it? Their network resources to meet the deployment of tens of millions of users to patch it?" Zhao Gang complained that these problems, that time is probably "by security vendors to help them solve", but to bear the large-scale user access causes the network paralysis risk of a storm would cause the whole network Yingyin example of paralysis "is likely to be copied."
Filtering techniques have become another focus of Internet users questioned. In addition to "Garfield is too yellow, so the filtered" image filtering technology, the installation of the green bar, the End of the World, Cat Fight, Youku, school, QQ space, happy, etc. Web users find that they can no longer visit the website.
June 30, the reporter to contact the network identity management software, web site monitoring Green Dam square, is responsible for part of the Green Dam software white list (a list of sites can be more) to maintain the China Software Testing Center, the staff noted a press report out can not log in the website URL that they will verify the situation, if the site does not, "should be on."
Another problem comes from the Internet this. So far, only introduced for the Green Dam 32-bit Windows version. But many low-cost desktops, and in 2009 is expected to reach nearly 200 million netbooks, are installed Linux. If strict accordance with the "notice" provisions, they will not continue to sell. Filtering software, rivers and lakes
Fei Xiang Li Gang as the network CEO must not think, to say a few good words for the green bar, so that he became a very unpleasant focus. June 10, item Ligang in the blog, that he has a 10-year-old son, has been looking for such a software, after trial, he felt that the software "pretty nice", but also that "to do point of good things, some people stand up against it dull. "
As of June 30, this blog has been clicked 45,000 times, 2,000 angry netizens commented later in the article. And a blog entry Ligang then referred to "those on the control and privacy online speculation, I do not believe, the work of the Ministry of Industry is no such function", is aroused more controversy. Item's name will become a hot search term.
"I think the Green Dam on the Internet that questioned the safety of ridiculous." Xiang Li Gang said on the Southern Weekly, "Windows flaw largest how they do not say? I know the responsibilities of the Ministry of Industry, whether they even have Internet cafes, how can management to personal privacy? I asked the relevant departments under the green bar so-called mandatory installation, in fact, are not really even pre-installed, but on where the user choose to use, when used in open, off when not in use. "
"A lot of people who question the Green Dam, simply did not really used it." Xiang said, "For example, there is contention over 3 minutes automatic screenshots software where you can actually change at any time, you can turn off." In his view require purification of the voice network has always existed, but the strength of some associations and unions did not push the matter, in this matter, the Ministry of Industry and been yelled most money and efforts, is unfair.
In fact, many Internet users are only concerned about the dam until the Green presence of filtering software. For this, the Youth Pre-Bird, general manager of Romania Jiangshouju deeply understands technology. His team developed "wings birds parental control software" Britain has gone through a rough winnow 6 years, during which witnessed the fall of a number of filtering software. 6 years ago, a smash hit, "Mei-Ping Huang anti-expert", 3 years ago are no longer updated, birds wings because of their previous product, "Network father" registered by someone else and almost died, even to follow the trend of "Internet Mom", has also been a long time nothing happened.
"Filtering software to rely on retail to survive, it is too hard." Luo Jiangshouju said. The current filtering software market, almost only "parents worry-free" and "wings bird" also relies on the support of large customer orders to continue supporting. Luo said the birds wings nearly 10 million current customers, but the number of Chinese Internet users less than 1 / 30.
Retail less means parents do not need filtering software? Luo Jiangshouju do not think so, "Foreign filtering software has a mature market, some are done alone, some anti-virus software is doing, Microsoft VISTA itself with parents control software is also very popular. "
But the reality is cruel. In China, filtering software companies do not much, no one anti-virus software vendors interested in this field. The anti-virus software and filtering software, the relationship between, and very subtle. Luo Jiangshouju said: "To some extent, filtering software, in fact some of the behaviors they like virus. This is in fact nature of the product requirements - need to hide that he is not easily found without anti-virus software can be killed, but also can not be a child with a simple uninstall uninstall tools and other means, which is developed by one of the difficulties. "
Despite recent rumors that Guangdong will promote the "mobile phone version of the Green Dam", but Lo Jiangshouju do not think there is an urgent market demand. "No more filtering software technology breakthrough. Although the demand for mobile content filtering surface, but the real mobile phone to access pornographic content is not more."
Luo Jiangshouju also examined the green bar, that the green bar in the anti-yellow technical fact, the average, but the benefits of partner Beijing, Zhengzhou Golden Great is the semantic analysis technology is good, "can be a sensitive context of meaning expressed by the word commendatory or derogatory sense, this technology is very powerful. "
Luo Jiangshouju that the Internet's rapid growth has to common people, to children's healthy development, we must quickly expand the use of filtering software. But he also fears that the Green Dam rushed massive scale effect will be counterproductive. "From looking at the performance over time, their team should attack and release updates a little slower pace," Luo Jiangshouju said, "if it encountered a large-scale malicious attacks on the Green development, the dam itself is not necessarily good thing. "global anxiety
Concerns about inappropriate content on the network, and Internet filtering software on the green doubt, this ambivalence of other countries are also plagued parents and government officials.
In fact, the world's major developed countries have nearly all Internet content filtering system to deploy the network, while the Green Dam in China face the challenge of the scene, it has been or is the world's many countries and regions performed at the same time.
With the popularity of the Internet, statistics show that nearly half the world's families need to install content filtering software, especially in Asia and Europe, a considerable part of the area, even in the adult world of sex and bad sites are generally considered harmful content.
But the serious lag in technology, so that filtering software is the face of unprecedented's dilemma. United States, Britain, Germany, Japan, Korea and other countries with higher Internet penetration has been the deployment of content filtering system, but unfortunately, so far, both the user terminal, and backbone enterprise-level content filtering software are still not in the content classification of cost, efficiency and accuracy to do even just pass. For example, the image filtering is concerned, even in the statistical analysis of research on the Internet's leading Google, currently can only be retrieved by color image.
Earlier this year, the Australian government to deploy the web content filtering system has been stronger than the Green Dam questioned. As the Australian Government "network security plan", and the cost of 4.45 million U.S. dollars in the system is expected to be deployed in four years, mainly for filtering harmful children's website.
But Tom Wood to the "Green Dam in Australia," without more ado, a lesson. Last year in August, this 15-year-old Australian secondary school students in reading in just 30 minutes after the government on the development of breakthrough Internet pornography filtering system, and ironically, the Government's attempt to be "a huge waste of taxpayer money."
The Australian Internet users on the system queries the same focus on filtering technology, the feasibility and safety, they mask a link that the Government will take every 90,000 U.S. dollars, in addition to the government would worry about it for other purposes, they also complain higher rates of wrongful convictions filtration system, and even affected the performance of the network. Late last year, nearly 10 million users signed on the social networking site Facebook to resist the deployment of the system.
In Sri Lanka, although as early as last August signed a block porn sites on the Act, but so far not to have any practical action. The emergence of mobile Internet is to the problem worse. April 1, the Japanese finally decided to implement the "Youth Network Readiness Act," provides young people under 18 years of age must be installed in the purchase of mobile phone software filter harmful websites. Research institutes forecast, which means that three years after the young cell phone users in Japan will have to pay the parents about the high cost of 1.46 billion yuan.
In fact, the Internet Content Rating This is a simple and easy to do. In fact, if all sites are able to comply strictly with the Internet Content Rating Alliance (ICRA) provides the contents of the grading standards, then filtering undesirable websites actually just a few mouse clicks: open the browser, open the Settings option in the "classification review ", the browser will determine their own domain, web based content rating, shield the children should not see.
However, starting from the birth of the Internet, IRCA standard has never really been seriously performed their website, the content classification review of a browser feature is also the most useless decoration. This is also the filtering software, there is the main reason why.
XXX domain proposed solution to the problem would have worked to bring some of the dawn. The porn sites exclusive domain, if passed, will bring low-cost review of the actual grade operability. But the operation of XXX domain name administration of Internet domain names and addresses (ICANN) as subordinate to the U.S. Department of Commerce, to XXX domain was the European Union and other countries strongly opposed and eventually let the matter rest.
In fact, this is a ratings failure, analysts attributed the reason the United States lies. Currently, 13 units around the world used to resolve Internet domain names root servers, with 10 private companies in charge of Taiwan by the United States, other 3 Taichung, Taiwan, the U.S. military to use 2, 1 by the use of the U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration. That is, if the root server providers adhere to strict compliance with IRCA website norms, filtering undesirable websites, you can be as simple as originally envisaged.
September 30, 2009, ICANN and the U.S. Department of Commerce co-operation will eventually expire, so that public opinion is also confusion about consolidation of the status of domain management, and Internet content rating renewed hope. Perhaps it is the national re-deploying the best time filtering scheme.
