Later yesterday, WeChat released the "WeChat Public Platform Will Soon Display user IP territory announcement", which also means that WeChat has also officially joined the array of "display user IP territory".
Following the announcement, we found in the WeChat version of the iOS side that some of the official account articles have begun to show the creator's region at the end of the article:
In addition, in the message area of some public accounts, you can see the region where the commenter is located:
For this function of "displaying the user's IP territory", more users think that this will better curb malicious speech on the Internet and those who impersonate people in a certain region to make statements.
In fact, the earliest to do so should be NetEase News, in addition to accurate to the location of users in the city, NetEase News will also show the user's device model, but this does not seem to completely curb the "ultra-free speech" of NetEase users.
In short, the Internet is not an illegal place, whether the platform shows our location information or not, we should be rational and vocal.
