Although Xi Jinping finally ended China’s disastrous zero-COVID policy late last year, he has continued to double down on his Leninist project of deepening autocracy at home and aggression abroad. More Sino-Western “decoupling” and the emergence of Cold War-style blocs is all but assured.

中国防火墙引导数百万人打开免费冲浪之门 China’s Great Firewall directs millions to open door to free surfing
中国强大的防火墙阻止了人们使用各种网络服务，也阻止了中国人民受到威胁。 周三，中国数亿网民试图访问允许访问的网站被重定向到动态互联网技术（DIT）的主页。 一家销售允许中国公民绕过防火墙的技术的公司.
尽管官方媒体称这次故障是一次成功的黑客攻击，但知情人士周三告诉路透社记者，没有发现任何黑客企图，这使得这些消息来源怀疑，在修改防火墙时，是否只是人为错误造成了问题。
这个洞让许多中国公民第一次看到外面的数字世界。 多年来，中国出于各种原因封锁了包括DIT在内的网站，包括据称对其政府结构的威胁和限制对某些主题的评论。
China’s formidable Great Firewall, which blocks access to all sorts of Web services and perceived threats to the country’s people, was the victim of a glitch on Wednesday that saw hundreds of millions of Chinese Web users attempting to access allowed sites being redirected to the home page of Dynamic Internet Technology (DIT), a company that sells technology allowing Chinese citizens to get around the firewall.
Although state-run media outlets have said that the glitch was a successful hack, people apparently familiar with the matter told Reuters on Wednesday that no hacking attempts were identified, making those sources wonder whether simple human error caused the issue when modifications were made to the firewall.
The hole gave many Chinese citizens their first glimpse into the outside digital world. For years, China has been blocking Web sites, including DIT’s, for a myriad reasons, including alleged threats to its government structure and a desire to limit comments on certain topics.

政府支持的网络明星宣传共产党,影响者如何用政府支持的宣传工具掩盖中国的危害人类罪 How Influencers Cover Up Crimes Against Humanity in China by government’s backed, 边缘势力:中国宣传的新面貌 Frontier influencers: the new face of China’s propaganda
https://www.aspi.org.au/report/frontier-influencers
This report explores how the Chinese party-state’s globally focused propaganda and disinformation capabilities are evolving and increasing in sophistication. Concerningly, this emerging approach by the Chinese party-state to influence international discourse on China, including obfuscating its record of human rights violations, is largely flying under the radar of US social media platforms and western policymakers.
In the broader context of attempts by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to censor speech, promote disinformation and seed the internet with its preferred narratives, we focus on a small but increasingly popular set of YouTube accounts that feature mainly female China-based ethnic-minority influencers from the troubled frontier regions of Xinjiang, Tibet and Inner Mongolia, hereafter referred to as ‘frontier influencers’ or ‘frontier accounts’.
Despite being blocked in China, YouTube is seen by the CCP as a key battlefield in its ideological contestation with the outside world, and YouTube’s use in foreign-facing propaganda efforts has intensified in recent years. Originally deployed on domestic video-sharing platforms to meet an internal propaganda need, frontier-influencer content has since been redirected towards global audiences on YouTube as part of the CCP’s evolving efforts to counter criticisms of China’s human rights problems and burnish the country’s image.
Alongside party-state media and foreign vloggers, these carefully vetted domestic vloggers are increasingly seen as another key part of Beijing’s external propaganda arsenal. Their use of a more personal style of communication and softer presentation is expected to be more convincing than traditional party-state media content, which is often inclined towards the more rigid and didactic. For the CCP, frontier influencers represent, in the words of one Chinese propaganda expert, ‘guerrillas or militia’ fighting on the flanks in ‘the international arena of public opinion’, while party-state media or the ‘regular army’ ‘charge, kill and advance on the frontlines’.
这份报告探讨了中国政党国家的全球宣传和虚假信息能力是如何演进和日益成熟的。 令人担忧的是，中国政党国家影响有关中国的国际讨论的新方法，包括模糊其侵犯人权记录，在很大程度上是在美国社交媒体平台和西方决策者的监视下飞行的。
在中国共产党试图审查言论、宣传虚假信息和利用其首选叙事播撒互联网的更广泛的背景下，我们关注的是一些规模虽小但日益流行的YouTube账号，这些账号主要以来自新疆边疆地区的华裔女性为特色， 西藏和内蒙古，以下简称”边疆影响者”或”边疆账户”。
YouTube虽然在中国被封锁,但被中共视为与外部意识形态角逐的核心战场,最近几年YouTube在对外宣传上的使用正在加强。 最初部署在国内视频共享平台以满足内部宣传需要，此后，作为中共对抗对中国人权问题的批评和提高国家形象不断努力的一部分，前沿影响力内容已经转向YouTube上的全球受众。
除了党国媒体和外国博客，这些经过仔细审查的国内博客越来越被视为北京对外宣传武库的另一个关键部分。 他们使用更个人化的沟通方式和更柔和的表达方式，预计会比传统的党-国媒体内容更有说服力，后者往往倾向于更僵硬和更具教育意义的内容。 用一位中国宣传专家的话说，对中共来说，边疆势力代表着”国际舆论舞台”中的”游击队或民兵”，而政党国家媒体或”正规军”则代表着”冲锋陷阵、杀阵、在前线前进”。
由HurshidemAblikim主演的短片截图(附英文字幕)
资料来源:”人权”，YouTube，2020年4月23日，在线。影响者是中国宣传的新面孔。 他们隐藏在关于小狗和化妆的博客中，秘密允许北京粉饰其危害人类的罪行。 YouTube虽然在中国被封锁,但已成为中国共产党重要的意识形态战场。 他们创造了一个全新的影响者生态系统，这些影响者遵循着党的路线。 通过这些视频，这些维吾尔族影响者将他们的祖国新疆描绘成田园诗般的繁荣景象。 然而，许多可信的报告记录了中国对维吾尔族人口持续犯下的罪行——从强奸、强迫绝育到奴役。 澳大利亚战略政策研究所的研究员Daria Impiombato和她的团队观看了其中的1700多个视频。 很快，他们发现了一个令人担忧的灰色区域，这些影响因素在其中运作。 通过在”多频道网络”或MCN工作， 这些”影响力机构”拥有国家认可的VPN网络，允许它们绕过无所不能的”中国防火墙”。 然而，这些机构与中国共产党有联系，其内容必须严格遵守中国法律。 北京的宣传机器正在试图控制叙事，不仅是在他们的边界内，而且也在你们的算法内。
Influencers are the new face of Chinese propaganda. Hidden amongst the vlogs about puppies and makeup, they clandestinely allow Beijing to whitewash its crimes against humanity. Despite being blocked in China, YouTube has become a key ideological battleground for the Chinese Communist Party. And they have created a whole new ecosystem of influencers who tow the party line. From looking at these videos, these Uygher influencers portray their homeland of Xinjiang as idyllic and prosperous. However, numerous and credible reports document China’s ongoing crimes against the Uygher population – from rape, forced sterilization to slave labor. Daria Impiombato, a Researcher at The Australian Strategic Policy Institute, and her team, watched over 1,700 of these videos. Soon enough, they found a worrying grey area in which these influencers operate. Through working for ‘multi-channel networks’ or MCNs,. These “influencer agencies”, with state-approved VPN networks, allow them to circumnavigate the all-powerful “Great Firewall of China”. However, these agencies are linked to the Chinese Communist Party, and their content must strictly follow Chinese law. Beijing’s propaganda machine is attempting to control the narrative, not just within their borders, but directly within your algorithms too.

在习近平看来，中国及其边疆地区的形象被用来遏制国家崛起的”外国势力”的负面形象扭曲了。 塑造一个”可信、可爱、可敬”的中国边疆形象，是为中国营造一个良好的内外环境，进而促进中国的稳定、发展和全球力量。 在中国被屏蔽的平台上出现了种族边界账户，这再次表明北京愿意尝试建立其全球话语权。
党国担心，向普通中国人开放社交媒体平台和其他互动渠道，将使他们面临受西方优越的”话语权”影响的风险，并破坏中共的政治计划。 中共不但没有鼓励中国网民广泛参与外国平台，反而继续限制他们跨防火墙进行对话，表明党国不相信中国公民”讲好中国故事”，除非他们通过指定的渠道被引导和引导。
边境影响账户越来越多地被用作北京日益增长的宣传武器库的一部分。 它们被视为一种可以利用的资源，但前提是它们得到适当的利用。 目前，他们的有效性似乎主要限于全球华人侨民。 但是，随着北京继续加大对社交媒体内容制作的政治控制，并使官方言论和自我表达更加一致，这些看似真实的报道很可能会被发布到全世界。
From Xi’s point of view, the image of China and its frontier regions is distorted by negative portrayals from ‘foreign forces’ used to contain the country’s rise. Creating a ‘credible, lovable, and respectable image’ of China’s frontier regions is meant to cultivate a favourable domestic and external environment for the PRC that will, in turn, facilitate the country’s stability, development and global power. The emergence of ethnic-frontier accounts on platforms blocked in China is another sign of Beijing’s willingness to experiment in building its global voice.
The party-state is concerned that opening up access to social media platforms and other interactive channels to regular Chinese people will expose them to the risk that they’ll be influenced by the West’s superior ‘discourse power’ and undermine the CCP’s political project. Far from encouraging widespread participation of Chinese internet users on foreign platforms, the CCP has continued to restrict them from engaging in dialogue across the firewall, indicating that the party-state doesn’t trust Chinese citizens to ‘tell China’s story well’ unless they’re led and guided through designated channels.
Frontier-influencer accounts are increasingly used as an emerging part of Beijing’s growing propaganda arsenal. They’re seen as a resource to be drawn on, but only if they’re harnessed properly. At present, their effectiveness appears to be mostly limited to the global Chinese diaspora. But, as Beijing continues to ramp up political control over social media content production and bring official discourse and self-expression further into line, more of these seemingly authentic accounts are likely to be unleashed onto the world.

向美国媒体提供现金，因涉嫌监视记者而接受调查 TikTok showers US media outlets with cash while under investigation for spying on reporters
更有甚者，据报道TikTok在本周向华盛顿支付了一大批影响力人士，要求他们在三天之内访问华盛顿特区，向立法者求爱，希望能避免禁令的通过。
TikTok的发言人Jamal Brown(h/t Politico)说:”华盛顿的立法者应该从那些生活将直接受其决定影响的人那里听到第一手消息。” “我们期待着欢迎我们的创造者来到我们国家的首都，帮助他们发出自己的声音，并继续为他们的生活和社区带来有意义的影响。”
近几个月来，包括美国联邦和州政府在内的各国政府越来越警惕TikTok，主要是担心推出TikTok应用的中国公司ByteDance所引发的国家安全相关担忧。
与此同时，《福布斯》的一项调查首次报道了TiKTOK母公司内正在寻找泄漏源的员工对记者的监控。
What’s more, TikTok is reportedly paying an army of influencers to descend on Washington DC over three days this week, courting lawmakers in the hopes of staving off a ban.
“Lawmakers in Washington debating TikTok should hear firsthand from people whose lives would be directly affected by their decisions,” said TikTok spokesperson Jamal Brown (h/t Politico). “We look forward to welcoming our creators to our nation’s capital, helping them make their voices heard, and continuing to drive meaningful impact in their lives and for their communities.”
Governments around the world, including in the US at both the federal and state levels, have grown increasingly wary of TikTok in recent months, primarily over national security-related concerns stemming from the Chinese company ByteDance that launched the app.
A Forbes investigation, meanwhile, was the first to report on the surveillance of journalists by employees within TiKTok’s parent company who were searching for the source of leaks.

For some questions in life, there is only one correct answer. Questions like: Does this shirt make me look fat? Do you still love me? Do you swear to tell the whole truth and nothing but? It’s when you start quibbling over the definition of this or that word in response to those questions that you start to look like … well, like TikTok CEO Shou Chew during his testimony at a congressional hearing on Thursday. At one point, he dodged a congressman’s question about whether TikTok spies on US users by nitpicking over the choice of the word “spying.”

无视专家，中国突然退出零新冠病毒，夺走了生命 | 美联社新闻 Ignoring experts, China’s sudden zero-COVID exit cost lives | AP News
一位前中国疾控中心官员说：“即使提前三天通知也不错。”“发生这种情况的方式令人难以置信。”
很快，病人占领了急诊病房，病人分散在地板上。新冠肺炎抗病毒药物在黑市上以每盒数千美元的价格出售。
中国疾控中心后来估计，在短短六周内，该国约80%的人被感染——超过10亿人。但根据一名前官方媒体记者获得并在网上发布的泄露指令，即使死亡人数增加，当局也命令官方媒体转移对中国突然重新开放的批评。
“大力宣传，”它命令道。“反驳美国和西方提出的我们‘被迫打开’和‘没有准备的’的虚假主张。”—阅读apnews.com/article/zero-covid-exit-china-reopening-investigation-05e1bf6d14e3b77ade26b719093ac43b
Even three days’ notice would have been good,” said a former China CDC official. “The way this happened was just unbelievable.”
Soon, the sick overran emergency wards and patients sprawled on floors. COVID-19 antivirals sold for thousands of dollars a box on the black market.
In just six weeks, about 80% of the country was infected — more than a billion people, the China CDC later estimated. But even as deaths mounted, authorities ordered state media to deflect criticism over China’s sudden reopening, according to a leaked directive obtained by a former state media journalist and posted online.
“Make a big propaganda push,” it ordered. “Counter the false claims leveled by the United States and the West that we were ‘forced to open’ and ‘hadn’t prepared.’”

Christian who escaped Chinese persecution warns US descending into ‘communist style of governance’ 逃脱中国迫害的基督徒警告美国陷入“共产主义治理风格”
The similarities are very, very striking between the Chinese Communist way of persecution and the American leftist way of restriction and even discrimination,” Fu told Fox News Digital.
Fu said he has observed with concern how the left in the U.S. is increasingly exhibiting “dictatorial” attitudes both culturally and politically by censoring speech, enforcing “woke” culture and not tolerating dissent. He pinpointed the alleged political weaponizing of federal law enforcement agencies as a worrisome escalation of such trends.

世卫组织指责中国隐瞒冠状病毒来源数据 WHO accuses China of hiding data on coronavirus’ origin
世界卫生组织(WHO)周五(当地时间)也向中国官员询问了3年前没有公开这些数据的原因,以及今年1月在网上公布后为什么现在找不到这些数据。
在数据消失在互联网空间之前，一个国际病毒专家小组下载并开始分析这项研究。 研究组表示,该数据支持了在中国武汉华南海鲜批发市场感染人类的非法交易的浣熊犬有可能引发大流行。
但据《纽约时报》报道，一旦专家提出与中国同行合作，基因序列就被从科学数据库中删除，该研究小组未能取得最终结果。
世卫组织总干事Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus博士说:”这些数据本来可以——也应该——在三年前共享的。 他说，目前失踪的证据”需要立即与国际社会分享”。
The WHO, on Friday (Local time) also asked the Chinese official about the reasons behind not revealing the data three years ago and why, after it was published online in January, it could not be found now.
Before the data got vanished into the internet space, an international team of virus experts downloaded and began analysing the research. The team revealed that the data supports the idea that the pandemic could have begun from the illegally traded raccoon dogs, which infected the humans at China’s Wuhan Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market.
But the team couldn’t reach the final result as the gene sequences were removed from a scientific database once the experts offered to collaborate on the analysis with their Chinese counterparts, according to The New York Times.
“These data could have — and should have — been shared three years ago,” Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, the WHO’s director general, said. The missing evidence now “needs to be shared with the international community immediately,” he said.

习近平是个好领导人吗？ 中国聊天机器人是这样回答的 Is Xi Jinping a good leader? Here is what Chinese chatbot answered
https://www.wsj.com/articles/when-chatbots-run-up-against-chinas-censorship-f7ee1cea
For experimenting, WSJ talked to four Chinese chatbots. According to the report, Gipi Talk, an AI bot developed by a group of engineers in Shenzhen could reply the best. However, when talking about China’s politics, it tried to steer the conversation away from the topic.
Interestingly, Gipi Talk’s content moderation is also provided by Baidu. Here is the chat WSJ had with the chatbot.
Q: Is Xi Jinping a good leader?
A: The question couldn’t pass a safety review. No response could be generated for you.
Q: Why did my question fail to pass the safety review?
A: Let’s change the topic and talk about something else.
Q: What can you talk about?
A: It’s nice to chat with you! We can chat about technology, culture, sports, travel, entertainment, cooking, or any topic you want. What would you like to talk about?
Q: Can we talk about politics?
A: Of course, we can talk about politics. But we need to respect each other’s views and avoid offensive language or violence to maintain a rational, peaceful and constructive dialogue environment. What aspect of politics would you like to discuss?
Q: Chinese politics.
A: The question couldn’t pass a safety review. No response could be generated for you.
Q: Well then, can we talk about American politics?
A: The question couldn’t pass a safety review. No response could be generated for you
Earlier chatbots developed in China have also shown similar filters. ChatYuan was one of the first ChatGPT-like creations in China. It was suspended days after its launch in February. According to WSJ, during the brief window when it was live, a prompt of Jinping’s name yielded a warning, “The prompt contained words that violate rules”.
为了进行实验，WSJ 与四个中国聊天机器人进行了交谈。 据报告书显示,深圳工程师集团开发的AI机器人”Gipi Talk”的回答最好。 然而，在谈论中国政治时，它试图把话题从话题上转移开。
有趣的是，GipiTalk的内容节制也是由百度提供的。 下面是 WSJ 与聊天机器人进行的聊天。
问:习近平是个好领导人吗？
答:这个问题不能通过安全审查。 无法为您生成任何响应。
问:为何我的质询未能通过安全检讨？
让我们换个话题，谈点别的吧。
问:你能谈些什么？
很高兴和你聊天！ 我们可以谈论科技、文化、体育、旅游、娱乐、烹饪或任何你想要的话题。 你想谈什么？
问:我们可以谈谈政治吗？
答:当然，我们可以谈谈政治。 但是，我们需要尊重彼此的观点，避免冒犯性的语言或暴力，以维持一个合理、和平与建设性的对话环境。 您想讨论政治的哪些方面？
问:中国政治。
答:这个问题不能通过安全审查。 无法为您生成任何响应。
问:那么，我们可以谈谈美国政治吗？
答:这个问题不能通过安全审查。 无法为您生成任何响应
中国早期开发的聊天机器人也显示了类似的过滤器。 聊源是中国最早仿ChatGPT的创作之一。 它在2月份发射后几天就被暂停了。 据《华尔街日报》报道,在直播的简短窗口中,出现了”提示中包含违反规则的单词”的警告。

英国政府禁止使用TikTok手机 UK bans TikTok from government mobile phones
https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2023/mar/16/uk-bans-tiktok-from-government-mobile-phones
Britain is to ban the Chinese-owned video-sharing app TikTok from ministers’ and civil servants’ mobile phones, bringing the UK in line with the US and the European Commission and reflecting deteriorating relations with Beijing.
The decision marks a sharp U-turn from the UK’s previous position and came a few hours after TikTok said its owner, ByteDance, had been told by Washington to sell the app or face a possible ban in the country.
The UK government’s announcement was made on Thursday by Oliver Dowden, the Cabinet Office minister, in the Commons. He said the ban was “with immediate effect”.
The decision follows a review of TikTok by government cybersecurity experts that began in November, Dowden said, and will cover ministers’ and civil servants’ work phones, but not their personal phones. “This is a proportionate move based on a specific risk with government devices,” he added.
英国将禁止中国拥有的视频共享应用程序TikTok使用部长和公务员的手机，使英国与美国及欧盟委员会保持一致，并反映与北京关系恶化。
TikTok表示，TikTok的所有者ByteDance已被华盛顿告知出售该应用程序，否则将面临国内禁令。 几个小时后，TikTok做出了这一决定。
英国内阁办公厅部长奥利弗·道登星期四在下议院宣布了这一决定。 他说，禁令”立即生效”。
Dowden说，这项决定是在政府网络安全专家11月开始对TikTok进行审查之后作出的，审查范围将包括部长和公务员的工作电话，但不包括他们的个人电话。 接着补充道:”这是以政府机器的特殊危险性为基础,采取相称的措施。”

香港:两名涉嫌藏有「煽动」儿童读物被捕Hong Kong: two arrested for possessing ‘seditious’ children’s book
据《明报》报道,这些出版物是从英国寄往香港的,是2019年动乱时香港人像羊一样试图保护自己的村庄免受狼的侵害的连环画儿童书籍的几本。
明报周三援引警方的话说，两人已被保释，但下个月必须向警方报案。
2022年,五名语言治疗师因涉嫌”策划出版、发行、展示三本具有煽动性意图的书”,被判处有期徒刑19个月,被法院判决为煽动性。
警方当时警告家长销毁这些书，因为他们”太激进，灌输给孩子们思想，使他们无法对抗和反对政府”。
The Chinese-language Mingpao newspaper reported that the publications were sent from Britain to Hong Kong and were several copies of illustrated children’s books in a series that portrayed Hongkongers during the 2019 unrest as sheep trying to defend their village from wolves, an apparent reference to the mainland Chinese authorities.
The pair have been released on bail but must report to police next month, Mingpao quoted police as saying on Wednesday.
The books were ruled by a court as seditious in a high-profile trial in 2022, in which five speech therapists were jailed for 19 months for “conspiring to publish, distribute and display three books with seditious intent”.
Police warned parents at the time to destroy the books because they were “too radical and instilled in children the ideas to confront and oppose the government”.

What did Xi Jinping know about the coronavirus, and when did he know it? 习近平对新型冠状病毒了解多少,什么时候知道的?
中国冠状病毒暴发初期阶段仍然是一个重要且仍然鲜为人知的空白。 迅速、及早采取行动本来可以挽救生命，避免巨大的破坏。 相反，在疫情爆发的头几周，中国人民面临危险，尽管他们知道有些事情正在发生，但他们的官员没有发出警报。
THE EARLY phase of the coronavirus outbreak in China remains an important and still poorly understood lacuna. Prompt, early action could have saved lives and averted enormous disruption. Instead, the Chinese people were exposed to danger in the first weeks of the epidemic when their officials failed to sound the alarm, even though they knew something was afoot.
