App graded access to youth "brush face" certification

????With the rapid development of the Internet, the age of "touching the net" for the first time has dropped, and minors have become "little aborigines" in the online world. However, for minors with poor discrimination and strong imitation ability, the online world has both "poetry and distance" and "tension", which is not always so friendly and even dangerous.

????How to create a clean and sunny cyberspace for minors has become the common concern of many deputies to the NPC and CPPCC this year. They called for the establishment and improvement of the legal system for minors’ network protection as soon as possible, and strengthened the supervision of minors’ network protection. Cyberspace must not be turned into an "extra-legal place" for minors’ protection.

Bad Internet content poisons teenagers.

????According to the 42nd Statistical Report on Internet Development in China issued by China Internet Network Information Center (CNNIC), as of June 2018, the number of netizens in China was 802 million. Netizens have the largest group of middle school students, accounting for 24.8%, and netizens aged 10 to 19 account for 18.2%.

????"Studies have shown that teenagers aged 12 to 16 are at high risk of Internet addiction." Deputy Zhao Wanping, vice president of Anhui Academy of Agricultural Sciences, said with concern that at present, some websites, online movies, online videos, etc. contain exciting, violent and pornographic contents, which are imperceptibly "assimilating" and even poisoning teenagers. Their discrimination ability is poor, and it is easy to confuse virtual and reality. Moreover, long-term addiction to the Internet will also lead to children’s health problems such as anxiety and depression, and gradually lose their social communication skills, which is extremely harmful.

????"With the rapid development of the Internet and the rapid rise of mobile apps, the increasingly colorful online communication content has a vital impact on young people in the critical period of the formation of the’ three views’." Representative Kong Tao, secretary of Anhui Provincial Committee of the Communist Youth League, focused his attention on the governance of mobile App.

????Kong Tao analyzed the current chaos of mobile phone apps, and found that some apps have no restrictions on registration, so they can download and register directly and complete the application, treating users directly as adults. The privacy policies of some apps do not mention the protection of minors’ information, and there is a phenomenon of minors’ information leakage. There are also some apps that take the vulgar route, which has a negative impact on the physical and mental health of young people.

????The Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference Youth Federation believes that there are similar problems in webcasting, especially the low threshold of the live broadcast platform, and a large number of anchors have emerged who rely on vulgar content to earn traffic and gain profits. Teenagers watching this kind of live broadcast will mistakenly think that these behaviors can be famous, profitable and even follow suit.

Lack of corporate responsibility and poor parental supervision

????"Comparing the data in recent years, we can find that the age of minors’ first contact with the Internet continues to decline, and it is not uncommon for teenagers to indulge in the Internet." Zhao Yuping said that in order to protect the network security of minors, it is necessary to identify the lesions.

????Zhao Yuping believes that the lack of corporate responsibility is an important reason for minors to indulge in the Internet. From a technical point of view, enterprises can completely take control measures such as real-name authentication and overtime offline for minors, but in order to attract more users to make profits, some enterprises have opened a "half-door" for minors, making it easy for minors to download and use the product.

????"Social protection is not in place, and many minors are passive in contacting bad information. Statistics show that when browsing the web, the bad information that pops up accounts for more than 70%. " Kong Tao said that at this time, minors will encounter a choice. Will he turn off or continue browsing? Do you want to solve it yourself or tell your parents? For minors who have no mature values and control ability, they are likely to make wrong choices.

????Cui Jianmei, president of Anhui Bengbu First Experimental School, has been engaged in education for many years. In her view, parents also have unshirkable responsibilities because of poor supervision and laissez-faire.

????"Parents’ companionship is the best care for children, but some parents are busy with work and spend too little time with their children, resulting in emptiness in their hearts. Other parents’ educational methods are simple and rude, which may easily lead to children’s dissatisfaction and rebellious psychology, which will lead to children looking for another kind of protection and comfort in the network." Cui Jianmei said that children’s addiction to online family education in Otawa is related to the need to move the focus of education forward, and we can’t wait until we find out that there is something wrong with the children, which is often too late.

Legislation to protect minors’ network security

????Internet is a "double-edged sword" for minors. During the interview, many deputies told reporters that we should not only be alert to the danger of "ambush" in the online world, but also consider the benefits of the network in providing massive knowledge and relaxing leisure. We should not "cut off the network" across the board. The key is to protect the network security of minors and guide them to surf the Internet correctly.

????Zhao Wanping, a number of deputies, unanimously took legislation as a sharp weapon to solve the problem, and suggested that relevant legislative investigations and studies should be carried out quickly, and the Regulations on the Protection of Minors’ Network should be promulgated and implemented as soon as possible, and the Law on the Protection of Minors should be revised, and a special chapter should be added to make provisions on network protection, so as to build a basic legal framework for the protection of minors’ network in China and clarify regulatory responsibilities, protective measures and punishment measures.

????"For the regulatory authorities, it is necessary to implement a review system such as mobile App and online film and television works, and divide different age levels according to the content. It is strictly forbidden for audiences who do not reach the level." Zhao Yuping suggested that for enterprises, it is necessary to implement the real-name authentication system for minors, requiring minors to register their real names and "brush their faces". If the information does not match, it is strictly forbidden to register and log in. It is necessary to strengthen industry self-discipline, ensure that the information and services provided by enterprises are healthy, and consciously block bad information.

????In view of the problem of webcasting, the Youth Federation suggested that there should be a clear prohibition on minors serving as network anchors; Clearly define the anchor access conditions, formulate reasonable application evaluation, and improve the anchor qualification review; Intensify the investigation and punishment of the live broadcast platform that is ineffective in review and supervision and does not deal with illegal content in time; Open the channels for netizens to report bad information.

????With the development of modern teaching methods, "Internet+Education" and artificial intelligence have entered the students’ classroom. Cui Jianmei said that schools should educate and guide students to use the internet correctly and strengthen students’ network literacy education. When building a learning platform for students, we should eliminate interference elements and create a pure learning environment for students. At the same time, we should give full play to the role of the vice president of the rule of law, train students, parents and teachers, improve their awareness of the rule of law and their ability to solve problems on the Internet by using the thinking of the rule of law, and prevent and correct students’ improper online behavior.

????Kong Tao suggested setting up and making good use of "parental supervision mode" and "anti-addiction setting", encouraging more platforms to launch special designs for the protection of minors, and creating green online space for them. At the same time, parents can work with their children to make internet conventions to help them arrange their internet time reasonably. More importantly, they should teach their children to be vigilant when surfing the internet, not to trust netizens, and to inform their parents in time when they are harassed.
