Internet users in China will soon be held liable for liking posts deemed illegal or harmful, sparking fears that the world’s second largest economy plans to control social media like never before. China’s internet watchdog is stepping up its regulation of cyberspace as authorities intensify their crackdown on online dissent amid growing public anger against the country’s stringent Covid restrictions. The new rules come into force from Dec.
“The authorities are very concerned with the spreading protest activities, and an important means of control is to stop the communications of the potential protesters including reports of protest activities and appeals of joining them,” said Joseph Cheng, a retired professor of political science at the City University of Hong Kong.
Home too
Sounds really familiar …
Kind of like the Left here in the USA?
This is a surprise ? The u.s democrats are going to try the same thing
👏
Most be sticky to try to thread this needle slimeballs. You are currently whining about someone owning a single social media app that you don't like. Unfettered speech is a 'threat to democracy', right boys?
But elonmusk is the bad man, right…
HarmlessYardDog Offenders will get a permanent record of 'non-crime hate incident' and a visit to their house from the weakest beta in the police force for intimidation and shaming purposes? -The UK has been a great inspiration, says a spokesman from the CCP. (This tweet is Disinformation)
Sounds familiar no 😉 Like looking into a mirror isn’t it CNN 🤣
That means that it will come to every so-called democratic country... in order to protect democracy.
China and Chinese are just good as usual,save your energy by stopping dreaming any chaos accurs in this beautiful country.
He is out of control😡
CNN Fake news There are related rumors, but no official information is released at present！
how is this any different from your recent Twitter post about the dangers of free speech on well Twitter? Zero awareness
Almost like liking Trump here. Lol. Coming soon to the USA
They must have learnt that from you
This is what Dems and corporate media want for America. You CNN are part of that cabal. Wake up people.
West already doing it for years you hypocrits.
With mega corporations bowing to China no wonder they couldn't care less about human rights.
You know that Apple removed some stuff from the Chinese ios making it harder to share recorded video.. Sucks.
Insane but it's not like the liberal gang in the USA would have it any different if they had a option.
I dreamt where billions of people revolted, killed all their leaders from top to bottom.
this is as close as you can get to being thought police.
Exactly what Democrats and the Biden regime are doing in USA
Kind of like left-wing America!
Any American who complains about living in America has no clue how good you got it and how horrible many other countries are. You would come running back to USA so fast.
胡址。
When you said world largest economy you meant to say Canada
All Trump’s fault
Bet this is giving Trudeau a woodie. Now he will do the same in Canadastan
Great, now slo joe will want that here.
TO ALL OF THE SUPPRESSED PEOPLE IN CHINA , IRAN , RUSSIA, N. KOREA VENEZUELA & OTHERS , REMEMBER THEIR ARE MORE OF YOU THEN THE SUPPRESSORS AND YOU HAVE THE ELEMENT OF SURPRISE. WE AMERICANS WERE AT ONE TIME SUPPRESSED UNTIL THE REVOLUTIONARY WAR, YOU NEED YOURS TO BE FREE.
China needs some one like Elon musk.
SIN! SIN!! SIN!!! SAME-SEX UNION: THE ROOT OF ALL EVILS IN THE WORLD TODAY; THE ROOT OF GLOBAL WARMING!!! ~ CLIMATE CHANGE!!!
So you guys must be really jealous that they can get away with it but you can't anymore
Just the way CNN wants America to be.
Disgusting.
How is this different from democrats wanting to censor free speech on Twitter
This is what America wants now...sad day
Sounds like the Biden administration outline for the Twitter crack down the White House plans on
It’s like a liberal dream.
Doesn’t matter. Nothing on social media is the truth, anyway.
Sounds like the Democrats
They should try to read the rooms and figure out ways to compromise and work at fixing the root of their citizens' concerns and grievances instead. They are still mad at COVID-19 restrictions and stopping them from liking posts won't change that.
Yeah with the help of Apple and Tim Cook, they can silence everyone
Tell me how this is different than our social media controls over the last 2 years.
And fucking American Tim Cook is helping them! Hearing that Biden immediately asked Cook to meet him at the WH.
So kinda like the US where gosh forbid you like a tweet from the right and deemed a Nazi fascist?
Then we will just have to unlike China.
If it was up to Dems they would here in USA - they almost got by with it - till Musk bought Twitter and exposed what’s been going on
coming to a country near you.....
elonmusk
That is why China isn't a desirable place to live. They think their system will get the ahead of the west, but eventually, China will fall apart by it's own policies. Structure, is all China has right now, being able to place puzzle pieces where you want without complaint.
Much like Jack Dorsy's twitter regime used to control things .... Also how the Democrat Regime Freak Show likes to control the narrative
Coming soon to a western country near you…
Desire for freedom cannot be removed from the people who truly desire to be free.
Stop buying apple products. As they actively helped the chinese government hurt citizens
China will soon be like North Korea.
F China no idea why we still do business with them, oh I forget Joey and Hunter received millions from them
Hits close to home if you ask me
Apple is right on the forefront of this censorship. go Apple Oh, awaiting your 'Firey but peaceful' segment
Coming to America soon under continued democratic leadership
Controlling social media was just what you did in the West by silencing dissenting voices and banning them from the forums. hypocrites!
2 MUCH XPLOITATION IN SCHOOLS AS U CALL THIS FREE EDUCATION. PRIMARY CHILDREN ARE BEEN FORCED 2 PAY SCHOOL CHARGES OR STAY AT HOME, THEN U CALL THIS QUALITY EDUCATION. STOP LYING 2 D PEOPLE. STREET CHILDREN ARE ON D INCREASE, WHO'S 2 B BLAMED
Why do you care? You've been carrying water for China for 30 years. Communist scum are all alike.
is this the democrat plan as well?
how ironic that CNN would post this story.
BBC世界的搅屎棍，带有色眼镜的报导，不真实，没有公信力！
Trudeau would be so proud
If we do democracy loving why do we get all our shit from them…
The democrats are probably already trying to figure a way to do this in the US. Only against conservatives.
Oh by gosh, by golly...It time for missile posing follies..., along with Russia; China, n North Korea watching The Ukraine go..., why, it's Christmas..., Merry Christmas... You Know? 😰
American isn't far behind.
Now apply this same journalistic approach to the Biden Administration’s attempt to influence facebook Twitter & mainstream media especially Is the US Govt’s overreach not alarming? If you fail to be journalists & instead choose to be propagandists then this will the US.
This is what leftists in the west want.
Internet users in the US are held liable for liking posts deemed harmful, sparking fears that the world's first largest economy plans to control social media like never before.
Democrats support this 100%
The DNC is jealous of the CCP’s tyrannical methods.
I’m sure the Biden administration will be watching closely for pointers.
The US isn't far behind
CNN China News Network has spoken!
They should just put elon in charge of it and tell him everyone in China is sleeping with grimes.
What qualification does a loser have to blame a victorious nation?! Should the United States solve its own domestic economic problems, shooting incidents and drug problems before blaming other countries?
During the Korean War, China was the only country that defeated the United States in modern history!
Sounds somewhat familiar.
Sounds like the democrat party!
Exactly what liberal companies like yours want to do in America to the other 50% of America
If the people in China do not like their government overthrow it
Except what is posted is not true, the Chinese government should not term a truthful post illegal or harmful because that will be an infringement on people's right to freedom of speech.
Good
Social media is simply intimate surveillance 🫶🏾😴
Cnn would like to make usa like china
Sounds like leftist liberals here in the US demanding they be able to control Twitter and hunt down conservatives on social media platforms as commanded by der Fuhrer Biden.
Sound familiar?
Kinda like getting accounts suspended for speaking against lock down mandates..objection to vax.
Thanks for posting something valuable finally.
This has been going on since 2017 - where have you been CNN?
This is how the Democrats want it here in the US. Thankfully elonmusk stepped in.
Imagine being on here making a joke about it, when it’s indeed happening around the world.
don't lie...your network and the kool aid drinkers that follow your channel would love for this to happen here in america.
You mean like you and the rest of the leftist radicals want to do here?
Democrats and Biden enabled and empowered this
How soon before that is implemented here in America “Land of the Free”
So censoring Twitter is wrong?
You’re literally sounding the alarm over china yet this is what US government is beginning to do colluding with big tech yet but it’s not a problem here and only conspiracies…CNN is garbage!
Americans who oppose free speech pay attention. When the government begins picking & choosing who can have free speech, we become just like the Communists.
Bill C-11 in Canada 🇨🇦 thanks to JustinTrudeau and the liberal_party CBCNews CTVNationalNews ctvottawa globeandmail globalnewsto SenatorHousakos SenatorWallin SenateCA
This is what the Authoritarian Democrats and legacy propaganda media want for America. This is why POTUS established the “Disinformation Board” and appointed a foreign agent to run it.
seems like you guys want the same thing in our country! I hope you kids are paying attention! This will NOT end well.
Sound familiar Clown News Network?
US government thinking
When we are serious about the atrocities, nothing will change
Apple will help them out
They are behind the times... we been doing that sh*t over here in the states! CNN a big part of that movement
Democrats are salivating watching their idol, China, do what they dream of doing.
America came dangerously close to this over the past two years by banning “misinformation” which was both political & many times factually. Even now members of congress & political party loyalists are advocating for censorship. Maybe they are traitors to China? Freedomofspeech
Multipolar world in shambles
I love the cesspool of ignorant republicans on here lol. The comments, ha ha. Im loving it.
Where have i heard this before...mmm 🤔
The western leaders are envious of this sort of control
The govt simply labels any opinions they don't like as 'harmful' or 'illegal',then clamps down!More like how some in the US label people with opinions different from theirs as 'fascists' and their opinions as 'harmful' or as 'inciting violence' then push for them to be suspended.
Coming to a city near you
That's the DemoKKKrats dream
Thank God Elon bought twitter
Coming to a neighborhood near you if we don’t fight against China supremacy. They allowed people to burn to death in a building fire because of their quarantine rules. The world needs to embargo China and fast
Biden and Trudeau are loving this.
就问谁还敢说共产党的坏话了
Oh stop it. They created tik tok. That means they gave the world an app to schytt on everyone, let alone themselves, if the tik tok'r so chooses.
Democrats are taking notes!
Every democrats ‘ dream
But you think it's good enough for your political opponents?! Duplicitous fools
Biden looking at this like...
Isn’t this also true in US? Won’t u be held accountable if u like posts related to pedophilia, Child abuse/porn...
so just like pre-Musk Twitter
对违法言论的帖子点赞，视为吃同样观点，这没有问题，但不代表就要受到处罚。不要混淆！
Yeah, that sounds about par for the course.
I like it，I hope what you said is true。
This is the problem with the hateful/harmful speech narrative. Hateful/harmful according to whom?
Facebook should be transparent, too. They blocked or suppressed: ➡️ Anti-lockdown protests ➡️ Hunter Biden's laptop ➡️ Discussion of lab leak hypothesis ➡️ Support for Kyle Rittenhouse
Sounds exactly like America under fascist liberal rule.
This is what Biden wants for America.
你们懂个屁啊！！！这些法律是为了防止像你们这些人别有用心的人来扰乱我们国家的公序良俗而制定的！！！CNN，我劝你好自为之，不要在这里狗叫！！！
So what's next? Watching is illegal? gluing people' eyes?
They're years behind social media in the West then. When do they begin canceling people for having a divergent opinion? Maybe CNN can help them.
this is exactly what the American political left want for this country. CNN wants it too .
JonLemire How do you say “Totalitarianism stinks” in Mandarin?
JonLemire Facebook has been doing this for years…
CN citizens have some problems of GER layout of internet distribution. It's Obrahim relation. Much earlier it spread over CN babies head shape. SCMPNews XHNews
Quite right, the internet should be regulated

CNN, don't pretend like you don't advocate for the same here on Twitter. Hypocrites.
Isn’t this what Joe Biden is trying to do ?
poke Thinker_View contrôle des medias digital ID
This is unbelievable and alarming. Chinese people have the right to oppose bad behaviour from government..!!
Chinese censors keyword topics, and then America censors keyword topics China suspends accounts, and then America suspends accounts China penalizing users for liking posts, and then...
Republicans would love to control all social media in the UnitedStates. They’re actively working to make this the norm in the United States.
Cut off water and electricity to Russian embassies
Dictatorship is a nuisance in this present dispensation....shame on the dictator
