大概一個小時前(印度時間6月29日晚上9點左右),印度政府突然抖出來了一個幺蛾子。
根據電子和信息技術部的文告(點擊“閱讀原文”或者滾到到這篇文章底部查看公告原文),印度政府決定為了主權、領土安全、國防、國家安全和公共秩序,決定禁用59款來自中國的app。
頭疼加蛋疼
文告說了一大堆大話空話后,表示這次禁止這些app在移動和非移動設備上使用。至于到底內涵和范圍是什么,如何實施,是否有有效期,文告并沒有說明。
有趣的是,就在一個星期前印度政府在回應社會活動人士要求時還表示不會采取封禁措施。如果在有些國家,政府說什么可以完全不當回事,該怎么做還怎么做。印度這個不管他怎么執行,是否執行地下去,或者甚至是否會執行at all,相關從業者都很頭疼。這次有可能很疼。
而這不只是第一次穿小鞋了,之前頭疼和蛋疼的事情多了去了。也不只是中國公司會遇到,亞馬遜和冤大頭沃爾瑪沒少吃虧;Facebook也磨了這么多年沒看到Whatsapp支付完全推開,只能給首富安巴尼納貢57億美金。再之前做工廠,開發電廠的東南亞華商的經驗,能寫一部史書了。
有時候真在想 - 出海去哪兒不好?
名單
如下是受影響的App名單。起草文告的公務員也秉承了印度公共服務一貫的嚴謹作風,把其中至少兩個App的名字拼錯了:
吃雞好像(暫時)還沒有被影響到?
這份公告的原文我們在這里也復制了一份:
Government Bans 59 mobile apps which are prejudicial to sovereignty and integrity of India, defence of India, security of state and public order
Posted On: 29 JUN 2020 8:47PM by PIB Delhi
The Ministry of Information Technology, invoking it’s power under section 69A of the Information Technology Act read with the relevant provisions of the Information Technology (Procedure and Safeguards for Blocking of Access of Information by Public) Rules 2009 and in view of the emergent nature of threats has decided to block 59 apps ( see Appendix) since in view of information available they are engaged in activities which is prejudicial to sovereignty and integrity of India, defence of India, security of state and public order.
Over the last few years, India has emerged as a leading innovator when it comes to technological advancements and a primary market in the digital space.
At the same time, there have been raging concerns on aspects relating to data security and safeguarding the privacy of 130 crore Indians. It has been noted recently that such concerns also pose a threat to sovereignty and security of our country. The Ministry of Information Technology has received many complaints from various sources including several reports about misuse of some mobile apps available on Android and iOS platforms for stealing and surreptitiously transmitting users’ data in an unauthorized manner to servers which have locations outside India. The compilation of these data, its mining and profiling by elements hostile to national security and defence of India, which ultimately impinges upon the sovereignty and integrity of India, is a matter of very deep and immediate concern which requires emergency measures.
The Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre, Ministry of Home Affairs has also sent an exhaustive recommendation for blocking these malicious apps. This Ministry has also received many representations raising concerns from citizens regarding security of data and risk to privacy relating to operation of certain apps. The Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-IN) has also received many representations from citizens regarding security of data and breach of privacy impacting upon public order issues. Likewise, there have been similar bipartisan concerns, flagged by various public representatives, both outside and inside the Parliament of India. There has been a strong chorus in the public space to take strict action against Apps that harm India’s sovereignty as well as the privacy of our citizens.
On the basis of these and upon receiving of recent credible inputs that such Apps pose threat to sovereignty and integrity of India, the Government of India has decided to disallow the usage of certain Apps, used in both mobile and non-mobile Internet enabled devices. These apps are listed in the attached appendix.
This move will safeguard the interests of crores of Indian mobile and internet users. This decision is a targeted move to ensure safety and sovereignty of Indian cyberspace.
