No one in China has been arrested simply because he or she said something on the Internet.

Overall, what we have done in regulating the internet is consistent with international practice.

Since 2000, China has enacted serial regulations and laws for Internet service providers, by which China manages its Internet market in line with international conventions.

We seek to regulate, not control, the Internet. If an American website censors or deletes harmful information posted by an Internet user, this is considered normal. But when a Chinese website does so, it is considered abnormal and criticized. I think this is not fair and is a form of double standard.

Major U.S. companies do this and it is regarded as normal. So why should China not be entitled to do so?

It is unfair to slam web sites' deletion of harmful content in China, which web sites in other countries like the US regularly do.
