"a good network ecology is the cornerstone of our future move towards a digital society." on august 28, tencent group senior vice president guo kaitian stated at the minors' internet protection sub-forum of the china internet civilization conference held in chengdu that internet platforms need to always regard a clear platform ecology as a prerequisite for high-quality development, actively implement their main responsibilities, and promote continuous improvement of ecological governance.
under the new situation, the relationship between network ecological governance and the overall development of national undertakings has become closer, and the mission and tasks shouldered by website platforms have become more critical. internet platforms are prone to "blind spots" when fighting alone, due to the large variety of products, large content volume, and long security lines.
in guo kaitian's view, internet platforms need to continue to strengthen overall planning and achieve rational allocation of resources and comprehensive coverage of issues through the systematic construction of governance mechanisms.
specifically, we need to strengthen overall planning and governance mechanisms to achieve "systematic efforts"; strengthen scientific and technological empowerment and strive to "precisely exert efforts" in governance capabilities; increase resource investment and insist on "front-line efforts" in tackling difficult problems. "the key is how to promote the implementation of special measures and achieve results through technical capability improvement and strategy optimization." guo kaitian said.
the latest survey data shows that the number of underage netizens in my country has reached nearly 200 million, and the internet penetration rate of minors has reached 97.2%. the work on protecting minors online has become systematic, and technologies and services such as face recognition and ai machine learning have been put into the protection chain.
guo kaitian also believes that today, the protection of minors has entered the 4.0 stage, and while strictly controlling technology, we should go beyond "restrictionism." "for example, by combining network protection with family education, we can explore new ideas for the protection of minors through methods such as 'smart and physical double hundred'."
when talking about how to establish a good network ecology, guo kaitian suggested that internet platform companies should continue to adhere to the guidance of the "technology for good" signpost, constantly uphold integrity and innovation, promote the continuous improvement of the network ecology, and work together with regulatory authorities and all sectors of society to build a beautiful online home.
