Discussion: Is Baidu's behavior illegal
Under the question of Zhihu, "Is it against the law that hemophilia bars like Baidu Tieba are sold?", 37 answers have been gathered, of which the most supported ones are quoted Google The case of compensation of 500 million dollars for helping illegal drug websites advertise on Google.
The case said that on June 8, 2013, Jim Hood, co chairman of the National Association of Attorneys General, filed a complaint against Google, saying that it still allowed online pharmacies selling illegal and counterfeit drugs to advertise. Google was fined $500 million by the US Department of Justice for illegal drug advertising in 2011. According to the investigation of the Ministry of Justice, Google allowed a Canadian drug fraud company operating in the United States to place illegal advertisements at that time. The National Association of Prosecutors once again raised a complaint against this issue, saying that illegal goods information can be easily found through keyword search on Google's search engine, and some websites dealing with illegal goods also advertise in Google's YouTube video service.
Since then, Google has responded by saying: "We attach great importance to the safety of users, and have explained to Justice Minister Hood that Google has strengthened its policies in combating illegal and counterfeit drug online sales. In the past two years, we have deleted more than 3 million illegal drug advertisements, and regularly deleted dangerous and illegal content that violates YouTube policies."
As for whether Baidu Post Bar violated the existing laws, the post is still under discussion, but anonymous netizens have contacted the Fast Broadcast event and commented: "Fast Broadcast and Baidu Post Bar are also a platform. Fast Broadcast went bankrupt because it connived at spreading pornographic movies on the platform, and its main person in charge is also waiting to be judged by the court. Then, why does Baidu not go bankrupt? Why didn't Li Yanhong go to court? "
According to official data, there are 23913 Baidu Post Bars in 15 categories. In the whole Baidu architecture, Baidu Post Bar also plays a special role. Baidu's official saying is: "As the largest Chinese community in the world, Post Bar has become the first platform for netizens to exchange and discuss topics of common interest since its launch."
