【禁聞】封網抓人 世界互聯網大會成笑話?

【新唐人2014年11月21日訊】中共在浙江烏鎮召開首屆「世界互聯網大會」,3天會議期間,當地開放臉書、推特等國外社交網站,卻屏蔽了數千家國內網站,並且刪貼抓人,會議首日就有7名維權人士因在會場外拉橫幅,要求保障互聯網自由而被抓捕。有被捕的維權人士表示,「世界互聯網大會」在中國召開,本身就是一個大笑話。

11月19號至21號,首屆「世界互聯網大會」在大陸浙江嘉興市烏鎮召開。陸媒稱,這次大會有1000多人參加,會議的主題是「在合作基礎上,建立和平安全開放的網絡空間」,口號是「互聯互通,共享共治」。

英國廣播公司《BBC》報導說,從19號凌晨起,中共當局在會場內,暫時解除了對臉書和推特、YouTube等境外社交網站的屏蔽。報導說,這一「網絡特權」,只有登記成為烏鎮專用的無線網路iWifi-Wuzhen,並用手機號註冊才能享有。

就在會議當天,中共抓捕了來自中國各地的7名維權人士。楊秀瓊、王晶、張繼新等人因在會場外舉著寫有「互聯網自由不容侵犯、釋放網絡入獄人士、保障互聯網自由 停止打壓維權信息傳播」、「China open Google、Facbook、Twitter、Youtube、64tianwang and other Internet」等字樣的橫幅,被警方帶走。

20號剛被釋放的吉林維權人士王晶告訴《新唐人》,19號他們7人被抓後,她吞食戒指抗議,被關了一晚,20號早上被放了出來。

吉林維權人士王晶:「當時就是我們7個人關在一個所謂的世界互聯網大會工作組臨時借用的八一部隊的一個住處,給我做筆錄的一個警察,我就問他,帶我們來這裡做甚麼?他說我們舉橫幅了。我們不是呼籲互聯網自由嘛,說我們擾亂社會治安了。」

王晶表示,她們都是長期被中共在網絡上打壓的民眾,「世界互聯網大會」在中國召開,她認為簡直就是一個天大的笑話。

同樣剛被釋放的吉林維權人士張繼新說,作為互聯網的公敵,中共根本沒有資格來開這樣的一個會議。

吉林維權人士張繼新: 「因為和世界接軌、世界同步的話,你首先就得輿論自由,言論自由,但是我們不知道它們實際做的是甚麼,我們昨天沒有(做)甚麼啊,就把我們抓了,不給我們水喝,在那冰冷的屋子裡控制我們那麼長時間。」

張繼新認為,所謂的「世界互聯網大會」,叫「世界封網大會」、「刪貼抓人大會」比較合適。

《六四天網》負責人黃琦:「中國互聯網從誕生到現在為止,前後有上萬民眾因為發佈人權、民主、反腐敗的相關信息,而遭到了抓捕、勞教、關押、恐嚇等等,可以說這一路走來,一個目的,就是真正促使我們國家實現網絡自由和新聞自由。」

在這次會議召開前,中共當局在沒有說明原因的情況下,屏蔽了數千家網站。《美國之音》18號說,全球最大的內容分發網站之一EdgeCast在中國被屏蔽。一直以來,EdgeCast向在中國的數千家網站和app提供雲服務。

此外,大陸論壇和微博也遭到嚴格管制,有關大會的負面消息都被刪除;被戲稱「防火牆之父」的方濱興在大會的發言內容,被網友張貼在微博後,批評和貼文很快被刪。

人權組織「國際特赦」的中國事務研究員威廉•尼(William Nee)指出,中共的網絡模式是鎮壓的模式,將監控推向了極致。他擔心北京將互聯網監管規則推廣成全球網絡監管模式。

時政評論員古春秋表示,中共希望利用「互聯網大會」往臉上貼金,來掩蓋其專制獨裁者的本性,向國際證明它還在世界的潮流中沒有被淘汰。

時政評論員古春秋:「互聯網本身它就是一個自由精神的產物,而這個自由本身就是和中共的本性是相對立的, 它想推行這種模式本身也是希望它這種邪惡的統治受到世界的認同,你想一想它這種邪惡的統治,世界怎麼可能認同它?」

古春秋認為,互聯網自由是不可能屈服於專制的。

China’s World Internet Conference Becomes a Joke.

China’s three-day World Internet Conference was just held
in Wuzhen.

Zhejiang, Facebook, Twitter and other Western
social media sites were opened.

However, thousands of domestic websites were blocked,
sensitive information deleted, and some netizens arrested.

On the first day of the meeting, seven protesters holding
banners outside the venue were arrested.

They were requesting internet freedom in China.

The protesters said that the conference
held in China is a big joke.

The first World Internet Conference was from Nov. 19 to 21.

China’s media claimed that over 1,000 people
attended the meeting.

The main topic is “constructing a peaceful, safe, open, and
cooperative cyberspace.”

The slogan is “an interconnected world shared
and governed by all.”

BBC Chinese website reported that on Nov. 19, China opened
Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and other Western social media.

The report said this privilege was opened only for users who
registered with their mobile phone number on iWifi-Wuzhen.

Seven people were arrested on the first day
of the meeting for protesting.

They held banners outside the venue, saying “Internet
freedom is inviolable, release internet activists, protect
internet freedom, stop suppressing information of
human rights defence”, and

“China, open Google, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube,
64tianwang and other Internet!”

Wang Jing, one of the protesters was released on Nov. 20,
and spoke to NTD Television.

She said that seven of them were arrested on Nov. 19.

Wang swallowed a ring to protest. She was held for a day,
then was released next morning.

Wang Jing: “We were held in a place that was used for the
World Internet Conference work-team.

It was borrowed from an army residence.

I asked a police who interviewed me why I was taken there?
He said because we displayed banners.

Doesn’t the meeting claim internet freedom?
They said I disturbed the social order.”

Wang Jing said that they are netizens having been suppressed
for a long time.

She said the World Internet Conference held in China
was just a big joke.

Zhang Jixin, another protester who was just released
said that being an enemy of the internet, the Chinese
Communist Party (CCP) isn’t qualified to be holding
such a meeting.

Zhang Jixin, “If one wants to connect with the world,
and wants to walk the same pace, one must open up the
freedom of public opinion and freedom of expression.

However, we don’t know what the CCP has done in reality,
we didn’t do anything wrong yesterday but were arrested.

They didn’t give us water to drink during detention,
they held us in a chilled room for a long time.”

Zhang said that the World Internet Conference should be
renamed to “World Internet Block Conference” or “Deleting
Messages and Arresting People Conference”.

Huang Qi, founder of website 64tianwang, “Since the Chinese
internet started, over 10,000 netizens were arrested.

They were sent to labor camps, detained, or threatened for
publishing on human rights, democracy and anti-corruption.

Those people only have one purpose, which is to push China
to a real freedom of internet and freedom of publication.

English reference:

Before the conference started, the CCP blocked several
thousand websites without an explanation.

The VOA reported on Nov. 18 that, EdgeCast, one of the
biggest content delivery networks was blocked in China.

EdgeCast provides services to thousands of websites
and apps cloud in China.

In addition, China’s forums and Weibo microblog
were tightly controlled.

Any negative news about the conference was deleted.

Fang Binxing’s mocking speech as “Great Firewall Father”,
was posted on Weibo by netizens.

Their criticisms and its contents were quickly deleted.

William Nee, China researcher at Amnesty International
says “China’s internet model is one of extreme control and
suppression.” He worried that Beijing could push it to a
global model.

Gu Chunqiu, current affairs commentator says the CCP
wants to use the conference to paint a good image.

It’s to cover up its dictatorial nature, and wants to prove it
hasn’t been eliminated in this era.

Gu Chunqiu, “The internet itself is a product of
the spirit of freedom.

It is opposite to the nature of the CCP.

The CCP wants to promote its Internet model, so
it hopes its evil control can be admitted in the world.

Think about its evil control, how could it be possible?

Gu Chunqiu stresses that freedom of internet is
impossible to succumb to tyranny.
