2022-05-06
Since Weibo, Tiktok, xiaohongshu and other platforms launched the IP dependency function, there have been one rollover scene after another on the network. For example, some overseas purchasing accounts actually have IP ownership in China; Some local online accounts are actually operated thousands of miles apart. IP attribution function makes many big V flustered. On May 5, the reporter of Modern Express learned that with the launch of IP ownership function, the business of paid IP agent is booming. However, this is a black and gray industry. Claim to be able to change the IP ownership of Weibo and Tiktok phenomenon Ushering in a turning point, the "IP home" function of major platforms was launched In fact, the vast majority of netizens are also "Xiaobai" level in terms of technology. They don't know what is the IP ownership, so let's understand it first. It is reported that all Internet devices will be assigned an IP address, and each IP address has a place of belonging, that is, IP territory. In short, if you are in Jiangsu, any information that happens to you will show that you are in Jiangsu, not in Beijing. In the past, because the user's IP address was not displayed, some unscrupulous businesses would cheat the message maker in the background. Some online stores actually buy only 5-6 customers, but businesses can create an illusion to consumers by buying online Navy, showing that hundreds or even thousands of people are buying. However, this situation has ushered in a turning point in recent days. On April 15, the six Internet content platforms of today's headlines, Tiktok, baijiahao, Kwai, Zhihu and xiaohongshu announced "open account IP territory" at the same time on this day. Then, on April 28, Sina Weibo announced that in order to reduce bad behaviors such as impersonating the parties of hot events, malicious rumors and rubbing traffic, and ensure the authenticity and transparency of the communication content, the station launched the user's "IP territory" function in March this year. The station has upgraded its products and launched new functions on the basis of the previous ones, which are as follows: fully open comments and display the IP territorial function of issuing comments; The first level page of the online personal home page displays the IP dependency function. Meanwhile, the microblogging party said that the function could not be turned on or off by the user. change Network big V has changed its name and profile, but netizens don't buy it It seems to be a tiny function online, but it has produced a "Butterfly Effect" on the network. Once the function was launched, relevant topics rushed to the microblog hot search list. Soon after, Netizens found that some online big V began to change their names and profiles. Before and after account number change On a social platform, there is a vlog blogger with 260000 fans called "little Sydney in Japan". At first glance, people always think that this blogger should be in Japan, but in fact, his IP belongs to Liaoning. After the IP ownership function went online, she quickly changed the network name to "little Sydney full of vitality". Not only that, its original profile was "settled in Japan all the year round, an old aunt of the post-90s, recording what she saw and heard". Now the sentence "settled in Japan all the year round" has been deleted. After the IP ownership is made public, there is more than one blogger who changed his name. Education blogger "Luna in the UK", whose IP ownership is still displayed in Zhejiang, but now she has changed her name to "see the world Yingpeng education". Although these bloggers later refuted rumors on social platforms and hoped that netizens would not hold on to the IP ownership. Their shooting place was indeed overseas, but they used the domestic operation team, so the IP ownership was in China. Nevertheless, some netizens did not buy the explanation of bloggers. "In that case, why did you change your name?" "The point is that bloggers never mention the operation team. All kinds of photos that seem to follow their heart are actually a kind of copywriting." "Fans don't know who they interact with?" Derived The IP proxy industry is booming, and the IP can be changed for a minimum of 6 yuan Real time display of the user's IP address, so that those false information, all of a sudden, there is no soil for survival. However, there are still people with ulterior motives who try to use technical means to "disguise" the IP ownership and make profits. In the technical field, this function has a proper term called "IP agent". On May 5, the reporter of Modern Express observed that on some e-commerce platforms, there have been paid IP proxy services, some of which have obvious purposes, and directly indicate the IP ownership of microblog and Tiktok can be changed. On a second-hand e-commerce platform, the reporter searched with the keyword "IP agent" and immediately jumped out many candidate options. The reporter selected one of the businesses to understand the IP agent. The seller said that the number of people looking for IP agents has indeed increased recently. The services they sell can change the IP address of mobile phones or computers, and support all platforms and all brands of mobile phones. In the conversation, the seller said that he was a computer professional and had excellent technology, so the IP proxy services he sold were cracked by himself. When the reporter said he wanted to change the ownership of microblog IP, the seller said that the domestic server price ranged from 6-8 yuan, but this is only a short-term IP, and there are few alternative locations. For example, in Jiangsu, only Xuzhou, Nantong, Taizhou and Yancheng are available, and other cities have not yet opened. He promised reporters that if you buy IP proxy services for one month at a time, the price can also be preferential. The reporter observed that at present, the services provided by most sellers to replace the IP ownership place are generally in China, and there are few merchants providing foreign servers, and the asking price is high. renovation More than 13000 illegal lines will be closed in 2021 The IP proxy industry is certainly no stranger to some senior game players. For example, when players want to play the "international service" of a game and connect the game with domestic network IP, it will be very catchy and affect the game experience. The solution is to forward your game data with the help of IP in specific regions to achieve the function of IP proxy. However, this industry has "deep water" and has also derived many black and gray industries. In February 2022, the network security department of Yunnan provincial public security organ cooperated closely with Chuxiong Public Security Bureau to successfully detect the case of illegal network production by using "second dial" network equipment to obtain the dynamic IP resources of operators and provide dynamic IP agents and dynamic VPS services for overseas criminals. As of the incident, the suspect gang has set up 24 illegal computer room dens in 15 prefectures (cities) of Yunnan Province. The gang illegally engaged in virtual public internet proxy access services and broadband sublease business. Knowing that the services and businesses they provided would be used by illegal personnel to commit network crimes, they still let it go, and installed access control alarm systems and remote monitoring and control systems in all dens in an attempt to destroy evidence and evade attack. Modern Express learned from Jiangsu police that in 2021, public security organs at all levels in Jiangsu severely cracked down on dynamic IP agents, promotion and drainage, code maintenance, illegal payment and settlement, unsealing account numbers and other prominent network gray property chaos. In 2021, 403 relevant administrative cases were investigated and dealt with, and 156 people were administratively detained. Not only in Jiangsu, illegal IP agents have been severely cracked down on across the country. The Ministry of public security disclosed at the "net 2021" work effectiveness press conference that last year, it carried out governance specifically for the key basic resources breeding illegal and harmful information on the Internet, such as network TV and "dynamic IP agent", investigated and dealt with 146 illegal network TV platforms in accordance with the law, shut down more than 13000 illegal broadband lines and more than 5000 broadband Internet accounts. Although in the law, there are no relevant punishment provisions for ordinary Internet users to use IP proxy to surf the Internet, using proxy IP still has a certain risk. The requests sent by netizens will be transmitted through the proxy server. Once the free proxy IP is used by network hackers, the browsing records, account passwords and other user information generated by netizens through the free proxy IP may be leaked. In addition, because there is no specially assigned person to maintain, it may be encountered during the switching process. It is clearly verified that it is effective, but it fails immediately after the switching, and the effective time is short, which will also cause a lot of inconvenience to the work of netizens.
