Apple next on list for Internet regulators
Print Edition
BEIJING’S Internet regulators said Apple is next on a list for inquiries after authorities ordered three Chinese live streaming websites to rectify management loopholes.
Websites toutiao.com, huoshanzhibo.com and huajiao.com were found to have violated four different regulations concerning Internet information services, live-streaming services and online performance, according to the Beijing Cyberspace Administration.
In a joint inquiry by the administration, the Beijing Public Security Bureau and Beijing Cultural Market Administrative Law Enforcement Team, the websites were found to lack systematic management and to have been inadequate in checking information, emergency response and technical support.
“Significant loopholes” also existed in their management of live-broadcast products, user classification, authentication of user identity and the handling of tip-offs.
Some publishers broadcast illegal live content on these platforms, the regulators said, with some providing pornographic content.
Officers with the law enforcement team said they have also met representatives from Apple about the examination of live stream apps from the tech giant’s app store.
The Beijing Cyberspace Administration confirmed that the three departments will jointly summon Apple over the issues to urge the American firm to tighten up checks on software applications available in the Apple Store.
