【新唐人2014年12月29日讯】中共党媒《红旗文稿》近来发表文章，承认信息技术对中共的思想管控带来巨大冲击。文章称，中共对博客等新型网络传媒的管控，已经滞后于信息技术的发展，“破网”软体等技术让当局陷入被动。有评论认为，这一文稿是中共罕见的自曝家丑，等于公开承认“网络防火墙”实质是“思想防火墙”，而这一堵墙目前也正处在倒塌的危机之中。请看以下采访报导报导。
中共中央党刊《求是》杂志旗下的《红旗文稿》，日前发表文章《信息技术发展趋势与意识形态安全》。署名单位是所谓的“国防大学中国特色社会主义理论体系研究中心”。
文章提出：中共对博客、微博、微信等传播工具的监管，对信仰、宗教等相关内容的传播管控，在很大程度上滞后于信息技术的发展，经常处于被动应付状态。文章再次将中共的管控失灵，归咎于所谓“敌对势力”，并宣称“敌对势力”对“破网”软体等信息技术的利用，使得中共陷入被动。
大陆“权利运动”网站负责人张建平：“它把人民应该知道自由信息、真实信息的权利，都列为对它统治造成威胁的范围。那么一旦对它不法统治产生威胁，就定为‘敌对势力’。”
大陆权利运动负责人张建平对《新唐人》表示，从中共喉舌《红旗文稿》罗列的所谓“敌对势力”就可以看出，中共把通过“翻墙”平台来获取真实信息的人，都视为敌对势力。
张建平：“它放出这个风跟这篇文章，实际上就是个风向标：它要对这些觉醒的民众进行打压，以便它继续这种专制、独裁、腐败的统治。”
“翻墙”也称为“破网”，指的是通过技术手段突破中共网络封锁，尤其是臭名昭著的所谓“长城防火墙”，来获取自由信息。张建平认为，“翻墙”软体对于今天中国民众的觉醒发挥了非常大的作用，可谓居功至伟。
《红旗文稿》这篇文章声称：为继续进行意识形态控制，中共需要高度关注互联网搭建技术、大数据技术、微电子技术、信息传输技术、“破网”技术和无线网络攻击技术等领域。
文章显示，中国大陆越来越多的网民使用“破网”技术获取境外真实信息，“破网”已经非常普及，这让当局非常忧虑。
大陆南方街头运动参与者贾榀：“我们经常上网都知道的：越来越多人会‘翻墙’。你现在随便到网上那些论坛，很多人都是在那里问：怎么‘翻墙’，或者是用VPN、‘翻墙’软体之类的。都在相互传播这种方法。”
总部位于美国的“动态网”被公认为是当今最主要的破网平台，高峰期间每天有上百万人次访问。“动态网”推出的自由门、无界浏览等破网软体在大陆网民中广为流传。
“动态网”技术总裁比尔．夏介绍，大陆互联网在上世纪90年代后期开始出现以后，中共就意识到互联网上的信息传播对其政权会造成威胁，所以中共在大陆互联网稍具规模时就开始封锁网络。1999年中共开始迫害法轮功之后，马上就将相关网站封锁，网络管控越发严厉。于是，为了通过技术手段突破中共的网络封锁，让人们看到海外信息，“动态网”在2002年应运而生。
“动态网”技术总裁比尔•夏：“中共历来都是淡化封锁网络这件事情，都是强调要封锁色情信息，另外对于破网工具、国内很多人在使用的事实，都是采用视而不见、好像是这个事情不存在一样。”
比尔•夏强调，中共的统治是基于信息封锁之上的，因此，任何能够让老百姓看到自由信息的技术或行为都会对中共造成威胁。《红旗文稿》的这篇文章表明，随着越来越多的大陆网民使用“破网”软体，中共已经不可能再无视“破网”工具起到的效果，也无法再否认“破网”这一事实。

CCP’s Journal Publicly Discusses Fire Wall Circumvention
The Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) journal,
the Red Flag Manuscript, recently published an article
that admitted that information technology (IT) has become
a great challenge for the CCP in controlling public ideology.
It says that the Party is now falling behind in IT development
for managing blogs and other new forms of network media,
and that circumvention software and other techniques have
put the Party on the defensive in this “battle" for control.
The article is a rare exposure of the “skeleton in the closet"
by the CCP—it virtually announces that its Great Fire Wall
serves to control ideology and that this “wall" is collapsing.
—Let’s see today’s report.
The Red Flag Manuscript, an affiliated journal of the CCP
Central Committee’s Qiushi Magazine, published the article
The Development Trend of IT and Ideology Safety,
which was written by the PLA National Defense University’s
Research Center of Socialism with Chinese Characteristics.
The article says the CCP’s “supervision tools" used to control
religious content on blogs, weibo, Wechat and other
network media have fallen behind new IT development,
which has put the Party on the defensive side in the “battle".
The article also blames the Party’s loss of ideology control
on so-called “hostile forces", claiming that they have used
circumvention software and other techniques to push
the Party into a passive position.
Zhang Jianping, Director, Human Rights Campaign in China:
“The CCP regards people’s right to freely access information
and seek the truth as a big threat to its regime, and defines
any group as a ‘hostile force’ if its rule is challenged."
Jianping told NTD that by studying the list of hostile forces
in the Red Flag Manuscript, one can easily see that the CCP
regards all people who are seeking freedom of information
by circumventing the Great Fire Wall as enemies.
Zhang Jianping: “The Party is releasing a signal through
this article—it will suppress anyone who is awakening
the public, in order to maintain its corrupt autocracy."
“Circumventing the wall “or “breaking the net “refers to
breaking through the CCP’s Internet blockades, especially
the notorious Great Fire Wall, by using IT software.
Jianping says credit should be given to such software as they
are the primary force in awakening people to the truth.
The Red Flag Manuscript also says that to sustain its control
over ideology, the CCP needs to pay close attention to
techniques in network building, mass data, microelectronics,
information transmission, circumventing, cyber-attacks, etc.
The article also uncovers that more and more netizens are
using circumvention tools to seek information from blocked
websites, and that the popularity of such tools is making
the CCP very nervous.
Jia Pin, Street Activist in Southern China: “Senior Internet
users all know it clearly that more people are learning
how to circumvent the wall; if you go to any online forum,
you can see a lot of people asking how to use a virtual
private network (VPN) or circumvention software to access
blocked websites, and the tools are circulating everywhere."
Dynamic Internet Technology (DIT), based in the U.S.,
is widely regarded as the most popular in firewall-bypassing.
Millions visit DIT’s website every day during peak periods
and their Freegate and Ultrasurf applications are widely used
among Chinese netizens.
DIT’s technology executive, Bill Xia says, after the emergence
of Internet in China in the late 90’s, the CCP soon realized
that information transmission online may become a threat,
and started to build cyber blockades when public Internet
usage was still limited to a moderate level.
After the persecution of Falun Gong began in 1999,
the CCP immediately blocked all relevant websites
and tightened its control on online information.
DIT was founded in 2002, to develop a way to break through
the CCP’s blockades and give Chinese people free access to
foreign websites.
Bill Xia: “The CCP always plays down any reports about
Internet censorship and talks much more about how it tries
to block adult sites, and it has never publicly mentioned that
people are using circumvention tools; as if they don’t exist."
Bill says that any techniques that give Chinese people access
to free information are considered a big threat to the regime
because the CCP’s governance is based on blocking any
information that is seen as being “against" its rule.
The appearance of such an article in the Red Flag Manuscript
suggests that the CCP can no longer ignore the impact of
circumvention software, as so many people are using them
and “breaking through the wall" on a massive scale.
