Beijing, Yinyin’s alma mater, Beijing University of Science and Technology.
In October, another crop of leeks has entered school, with clear eyes but a hint of stupidity, happily waiting to be harvested by the 99 series.
This evening, after class, several freshmen in the dormitory were watching "Inception" around a laptop.
I bought a pirated DVD and put it in to watch.
In later generations, this ancient movie-watching behavior may no longer exist.
When the top spun at the end, before everyone could express their opinions on the movie, there was a pop-up sound and a pop-up window popped up.
"A letter to users?"
"what?"
The computer owner, a fair and elegant boy, casually clicked on it and saw a page with a gray background and a rather alarmist title: "User Privacy Is Too Big"!
“In recent years, various black and gray forces have been eyeing private information.
Some netizens chatted online, and their nude photos were stolen and blackmailed. More than 600 artists' phone numbers and home addresses were leaked online, forcing them to change their numbers collectively. A famous host had to say goodbye because his private photos were stolen and widely circulated online.
Host career...
Statistics show that Chinese people receive an average of 3 malicious calls every day, 15 harassing text messages and 30 spam text messages every week.
There are many ways to leak private information, and the bad behavior of certain software in computers is one of them. The vicious competition on the Internet and the desire for commercial interests have caused some companies to abandon their basic moral bottom line.
Recently, we have received many complaints and found that a well-known chat software that serves 600 million Internet users in China is secretly scanning various information on the user's backend, including but not limited to:
Friends list, chat history, email, browsing history, online banking files, download information, video files and more!
There is a famous saying in "Spider-Man": With great power comes great responsibility.
360 is a small company with only a few hundred people, but we are in the field of network security and have the responsibility to protect everyone's privacy and security.
In response, we launched 360 Privacy Protector, which is just a small software that is effortless to install, but it can expose all peeping behaviors..."
"..."
The gentle boy's face suddenly turned pale. Before he could react, a roommate with a weak hand shouted: "What kind of download is this?"
"Hey, it's finished. Open it and take a look!"
A small software, 360 Privacy Protector was opened just like that.
"This tool will monitor and record the scanning of private files on your computer by other software!"
Immediately afterwards, the brush was pulled down:
"A total of xxx files have been viewed by QQ, xx of which may involve your privacy." As the numbers continue to jump, the drop-down list becomes more and more numerous.
“C:\prografiles\……”
“C:\prografiles\……”
"D:\Study Materials\Ma Zhe\"Critique of Pure Reason"\Hidden Folders\Beautiful Tutor's Kiss. I am a college student working part-time and my wife is in a convenience store. Just talking with each other does not count as an affair..."
Alas!!!
The dormitory was filled with boos.
"You're usually a prude, but are you so slutty behind your back?"
The boy's face suddenly turned red, and the veins on his forehead popped out, and he argued: "Watching a movie can't be considered pornographic, but can sex education be considered pornographic?"
There were words that were difficult to understand one after another, such as "Tandi wife" and "Investigator", which made everyone burst into laughter.
…………
"I applied for a card a while ago, and not long after, a scammer called and knew my name clearly! I just wanted to ask who leaked the personal information?"
"Isn't this very common? I forgot all the spam messages before. How did they know our phone number?"
"A truth that has been hidden for a long time. Everyone should wake up. We have long been in an era where all people are streaking."
“Chinese people’s privacy is worthless!”
"I installed 360 Privacy Protector yesterday and found that my online banking information was scanned by QQ. If this is true, I am ready to sue!"
A large number of users began to upload screenshots on major platforms, all of which detected that QQ was scanning files.
In 2018, Robin Li said:
"Chinese people are willing to trade privacy for convenience. In many cases, they are willing. Then we can do something with data."
After saying it, he was criticized by countless netizens.
But in fact, quite a few people don't care about privacy at all as long as it does not affect their reputation, property, and safety.
Since China entered the Internet era, privacy has been a big issue.
Yao Yuan's first pot of gold was to steal the newspaper's customer list and send mass text messages. At that time, public opinion focused on "spam text messages" and no one cared about privacy.
Because I didn’t have this awareness at the time.
After more than ten years of development, various industries are still stealing privacy, and many people still don't care.
The 360 exposure caused an uproar because the act of secretly scanning files gave netizens the feeling of being "privately spied on," "property in danger," and "under surveillance."
In other words, I feel violated.
What about another method? Send a dozen eggs and register personal information. You can see how many people will come over.
Zhou Hongyi is also a master at manipulating public opinion. He directly maximizes this sense of violation. Those who surf pornographic websites, download short movies, like to use online banking, like to chat about sex, and store important information... They are the first to jump out and start. scold.
Immediately afterwards, it expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye, becoming a prairie fire overnight.
…
Tencent headquarters.
When Xiao Ma looked at 360's statement and the angry netizens, he actually felt panicked. The other party was not as submissive as he imagined, but chose to resist, using this kind of killer weapon.
In the past few years, QQ had lost its reputation due to Yao Yuan's tireless efforts to stigmatize it. Now it has been given a new reputation by Zhou Hongyi.
Tencent has never been good at public opinion and public relations, so it has come up with three measures:
Step one: Pop-up declaration!
"Tencent has never snooped on user privacy. Please distinguish right from wrong and don't be deceived by a company's security threats!"
Step two: sue!
Sue 360 for unfair competition and require 360 to stop infringement, publicly apologize and pay compensation.
Step 3: Combine vertically and horizontally!
Zhou Hongyi has offended a large number of people. Tencent found Kingsoft, Baidu, Aoyou, and Keniu, and jointly issued a statement: "We firmly oppose the unfair competition of 360 and call for the strengthening of self-discipline in the Internet industry..."
…
"Hahaha!"
In Beijing, Lao Zhou laughed when he saw Tencent's counterattack: "Weak, too weak! They don't understand the point of the matter at all. Do they think they can scold me to death if they find help?
The key to this battle lies in netizens and the hearts of the people!
Who cares whether you make a joint statement or not?"
He is very aware of his own advantage, which is to put himself in a weak position and create a tragic image of the Dragon Quest. Netizens will naturally choose who to support.
"I know how to play with public opinion, we are not the only ones in 99!"
Facing a powerful enemy, Lao Zhou was full of pride and courage, and he actually became more courageous the more he fought.
