Why is Baidu's "pornography" repeatedly banned, and minors can easily contact it, and who is its umbrella

Dancing on the edges, photos of beautiful women, revealing outfits... Where is this for me, is this still a regular platform in China?

Now as long as you open Baidu APP, the home page push can be described as quite explosive, even if it is a newly registered, no contact with the edge of the information of the account can also see a lot of vulgar content, countless people in the face of the push called spicy, parents complained that they dare not let their children use Baidu again, a few clicks are not interested, but it is still difficult to escape the rubbing video"Chase and intercept"!

Why can't the net pay off this vulgar information after so many years? Why is Baidu rubbing edge soft pornography repeatedly banned?

All of the statements in this article are based on reliable sources and are reproduced at the end of this article

Rubbing information "captured" Baidu

There are too many discussions on social platforms about Baidu's edge rubbing, click on the APP, and countless edge rubbing information is like locusts transiting, which makes people unavoidable.

Even if you log in to the Baidu APP as a new user, after launching, the homepage pushes everything from international news to neighborhood quarrels, and at this time, the platform that has not been "baptized" by big data is mixed with various consultations, but from time to time one or two soft content will be inserted, which is quite abrupt in other sports, entertainment, film and television and other information.

And the homepage of the Baijia account that points to develop and send these contents is even more unsightly, and the content they send out is more or less stained with bad information, and even one or two thousand messages posted by some accounts are all women wearing only underwear, and you can find a lot of such accounts by looking for them.

In order to circumvent the machine review, some Baijia bloggers specially posted a "disclaimer" on the video with "normal outfit display, no bad guidance".

There are also some accounts that will tell the content of rubbing edges under the banner of popular science knowledge, or specifically intercept inappropriate clips of children's movies in the movie, and then use the title to deceive the review.

For this information, if you choose not to be interested, big data will slightly reduce such recommendations, but after a period of time, reopen Baidu, and the edge information will appear on the home page again.

Although it is not possible to completely reduce this kind of information by "not interested", if you click on the information page once or twice, it is very good to show "interest", and in the future, this kind of side-rubbing content will appear on the homepage like a tsunami.

Soft pornography "full invasion of the Internet"

In fact, not only Baidu, but also the phenomenon of rubbing the edge and involving pornography is quite common on major websites.

In July 2024, Shenzhen News Network reported on the yellow-related situation of the second-hand trading platform Xianyu, and netizens found that many products on Xianyu carried out "color trading" under the code of "installing air conditioners", "collecting coins" and "Apple card needles".

Xiao Su, who lives in Chongqing, wanted to buy a second-hand Giant bicycle in Xianyu, so he contacted a seller in the same city when he wanted to pick up the goods, and he found out that it was wrong when he wanted to ask for specific pickup information.

Asking the seller all kinds of questions is like playing the piano to a cow, and the other party is just blindly emphasizing "store inspection" and "satisfaction before payment".

Xiao Su was puzzled and posted the chat record on the Internet, and was reminded by other netizens to realize that he had strayed into the color trading merchant, and the "Giant" in the product actually refers to "convenient, safe, and special"!

The news reporter learned in depth that there are many color trading codes similar to "Giant" on Xianyu, such as a dime produced in various years, or a second-hand air conditioner installed at the door, and a photo of a beautiful woman is posted on the product display page.

The reporter asked Xianyu customer service for pornographic information, and the result was that in the face of this situation, screenshots could be uploaded to report, and the reporter reported the sales page of some "color products", and found that the pornographic account was quickly banned.

However, the ban of this kind of information can now almost only rely on user reports, and AI will never be able to distinguish whether the "Giant" written on the product page is selling bicycles or selling color services, and at the same time, it cannot ban the entire platform because of the occasional color information in the massive transaction information.

As netizens said, knives are used to cut vegetables, but if you hold it in people's hands, someone will use it to cut people, which is not a problem with knives, but a problem with people.

The so-called "gray area" is never an excuse

If you think about it carefully, you will realize that these bloggers who share soft pornography are not too exposed enough to make people see at a glance that they are "pornographic", but they do bring some subjective emotional discomfort.

Just like what the staff of Tieba said when facing a reporter's question, "Everyone's point of view is different, some people think it's okay, some people think it's inappropriate, it's impossible to judge."

After all, no one can say that they can completely tell whether the blogger on the other side of the screen really wants to share gender knowledge and movie clips, or wants to rub the edges of color under the guise of this kind of adulteration.

At present, the review of the network platform is still mainly based on machine review, and the content that cannot be determined by the machine will be transferred to the manual.

But machines can't understand human emotions, and sometimes people can't distinguish the chaotic information on the Internet, so how can machines understand the kind of information that "makes people subjectively emotionally uncomfortable"?

Due to the complex nature of the work, the manual review of major platforms is also a position that is "always short of people and recruiting all year round", not to mention that even if the manual review will be negligent.

From this, it can be seen that it is impractical to rely on the platform itself to ban soft pornography completely.

But even if it can't be completely cut off, the platform should also come up with its own attitude towards the edge color information.

It is true that shoddy content can attract attention in many cases, but if users are delighted with this kind of information for a long time, users are often forced to be trapped in a cocoon of vulgar information, which will only be annoying to the vast majority of ordinary users.

What's more serious is that the platform itself may also become a breeding ground for criminals, and then involve "disseminating obscenity and pornography", "protection of minors", "color services", etc., and will evolve into legal and social issues.

Reporters who learned about Baidu's edge information also submitted screenshots to report those Baijia accounts that published soft pornography, but only one account was officially banned yesterday, and the others are still operating normally.

When choosing to transfer to the human customer service to try to give feedback, the reporter can only get a reply from the AI and cannot enter the human customer service dialogue window.

Soft pornography is the gray area of the Internet, but the Internet is not a place outside the law, and the gray area will never be an excuse for platforms to do nothing and ignore marginal information.
