1. Content Compliance Review
According to the requirements of the recent "Qingming" special action of the Cyberspace Administration of China, platforms need to review historical content. Data shows that in the past 10 days, more than 120,000 pieces of illegal content have been offline across the entire network, of which entertainment content accounts for 43%.
2. Copyright disputes broke out intensively
Recently, online literature IP disputes have increased by 210% year-on-year, involving multiple platforms including Tencent. The following table shows copyright complaint data in the past 10 days:

| written works | 3,287 items | +178% |
| Picture material | 1,542 pieces | +92% |
| video clip | 2,015 pieces | +210% |
3. Platform algorithm adjustment
Tencent's content ecosystem has recently undergone a major upgrade. The new algorithm's accuracy in identifying low-quality and duplicate content has increased to 91%, which may cause some articles to be automatically filtered by the system.
3. User response and industry impact
Related topics have received more than 50,000 discussions on Zhihu, and the main opinions are distributed as follows:
| opinion tendency | Proportion | Typical comments |
|---|---|---|

4. Industry response suggestions
1. Establish a content hierarchical management system
2. Improve the copyright traceability technology system
3. Develop self-service query tools for creators
4. Build a fast channel for user feedback
The offline incident of Tencent articles reflects the common challenges faced by content platforms in the process of rapid development. As regulatory policies become increasingly refined and users’ awareness of rights increases, platforms need to find a more precise balance between content management, technological innovation and user experience.
