4. Summary of technical experts’ opinions
Cybersecurity researcher Zhang Gong pointed out: "WeChat's link control has a three-layer filtering mechanism: domain name blacklist, real-time content scanning and user reporting system. The new AI recognition module added in 2023 has improved the misjudgment rate."
Product manager Ms. Li said: "The platform needs to find a balance between user experience and security control. It is recommended that users give priority to feedback through official customer service channels when they encounter problematic links."
5. Latest policy developments
According to the latest news from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the formulation of "Internet Platform Link Management Specifications" is being promoted, and specific implementation rules are expected to be issued in 2024. This may change the current status quo of link management in which each platform operates independently.
