Cybersecurity

Cybersecurity was an issue of concern among many attendees of the conference as President Xi Jinping urged the fostering of "a peaceful, secure, open and cooperative cyberspace."

Addressing the opening ceremony of the WIC, Xi said: "Cyber surveillance, cyber attacks and cyber terrorism have become a global scourge," noting the periodic occurrence worldwide of infringements of individual privacy and intellectual property rights.

Internet experts and business leaders at the conference agreed that no country is endowed with network hegemony or the right to interfere in others' domestic affairs and there should not be "double standards" in safeguarding cyber security.

Meanwhile, industry thinkers also spoke on how to protect the rights of juveniles from Internet rumors and acknowledged that shielding them from crime and pornography remains a challenge.

Cyberspace administration departments in China have their own standards and benchmarks of inspecting and even deleting some online posts or websites, officials said. The posts and websites cannot violate Chinese laws or infringe upon the rights and interests of others, and should not harm the healthy growth of juveniles.
