How to solve the problem of minors being exposed to the internet at a young age and facing high risks? The companion style of weaving a dense protective net for internet use has led to younger age exposure, more frequent social networking, more proficient internet surfing than parents, being "unboxed" at the slightest provocation, addiction induced by some functions of smart watches, and poor experience of the platform's youth mode - new phenomena and problems related to minors' internet use have sparked discussions online. Clear up the online environment for minors, safeguard their healthy growth, and affect thousands of households. The more we face new situations and problems, the more we need all sectors of society to work together to weave a dense protective net. Establishing rules and standards for smart terminal devices. Recently, a certain children's smartwatch was complained by parents about "built-in APP induced consumption", and relevant departments have dealt with it in accordance with the law. The company has announced the removal of relevant apps and conducted investigations. How to manage children's smart devices in the face of new situations? The regulation of online chaos involving minors, especially new problems arising from smart devices, continues to increase. In July 2024, the Cyberspace Administration of China launched a two month special campaign called "Clear and Bright 2024 Summer Network Environment Rectification for Minors", which identified "children's smart devices" as the focus of rectification. This includes inadequate review and control of information content provided by third-party apps, the existence of inappropriate content, and the use of points ranking, function unlocking, background updates, and other excuses to induce excessive consumption by minors. Smart terminal products specifically designed for minors should have the functions of effectively identifying illegal information and information that may affect the physical and mental health of minors, protecting the personal information rights and interests of minors, preventing minors from becoming addicted to the internet, and facilitating guardians to fulfill their guardianship responsibilities. Smart terminal product manufacturers should install network protection software for minors before the products leave the factory, or inform users of installation channels and methods in a significant way. The "Regulations on the Protection of Minors' Networks" implemented in January 2024 stipulate the relevant requirements for smart terminal products designed for minors. Associate Professor of the School of Law at the University of International Business and Economics, Xu Ke, said that the requirements of the "Regulations on the Protection of Minors' Networks" are very clear, and the next step is for all departments to timely improve relevant regulations and establish rules and standards for a clear network environment. Industry standards and online literacy courses should keep up and create a unified and standardized industry ecosystem, which is conducive to reducing online chaos from the source. Some departments and industry organizations have already made attempts. Zhang Xiaobing, Deputy Director of the Children's Research Institute of the China Youth Research Center, stated that it is necessary to promote industry self-discipline, strengthen industry review and supervision, formulate relevant industry standards, and classify and issue corresponding construction standards for youth models. In November 2024, the National Internet Information Office issued the Guidelines for the Construction of the Mobile Internet Juvenile Model, proposing the overall plan for the construction of the juvenile model, encouraging and supporting mobile intelligent terminals, applications and application distribution platforms, etc., to jointly participate in the construction of the juvenile model, integrate decentralized functions, integrate sectional protection, and build a "triple line of defense" for the network protection of minors. The "Guidelines for the Protection of Personal Information and Rights of Children's Smart Watches" formulated by the China Cybersecurity Industry Alliance proposes that children's watch manufacturers need to consider setting sufficient functions in guardian controlled applications to ensure that guardians can appropriately control specific operations of children's smart watches, such as social networking functions, in app payments, content sending, etc. At present, the 'supervisory power' over the use of children's smart devices still lies more with parents. It is necessary to timely release and update guidelines to help parents better understand children's smart devices and correctly assist minors in using them Hu Gang, deputy secretary-general of the Law Working Committee of the China Internet Association, said. Meanwhile, experts suggest that the development of online literacy courses that cater to the current characteristics of minors' internet usage should also be accelerated. It is suggested to launch a "24-hour screen off" campaign among minors, return "clean" mobile phones to children, and meet the needs of rural children for AI courses... This year's National People's Congress and Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, many representatives and members actively provided suggestions and recommendations on the issue of minors using the internet. In addition, many adults find it difficult to distinguish the problems of information forgery caused by the development of artificial intelligence. Network literacy courses should focus on hot topics and help minors find ways to get along with each other that match the era of intelligence. Reasonable companionship guides reasonable needs. In the face of extreme cases such as online violence, some parents demand their children to "avoid the internet" out of concern. Today's minors, growing up in the online environment, also rely on the internet for socializing and creativity Ye Jun, associate researcher at the Institute of Journalism and Communication of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, believes that parents should not be "afraid to talk about the internet" and should face up to the reasonable use of the internet by minors. According to the Youth Blue Book: Report on Internet Use of Chinese Minors (2024) released by the Institute of Journalism and Communication of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and others, since 2020, the proportion of minors who use Internet search to solve practical problems has increased significantly, and the proportion of online creation using audio or video has increased year by year. The internet has become an important place for minors to learn, live, and express themselves socially. Blocking is not as good as easing, and parents play a key role in guiding minors to use the internet healthily. Ye Jun suggests that parents may establish the concept of "companion style internet use". Through reasonable companionship, they can help minors plan their internet usage time and monitor their content. They can accompany their children throughout the entire process when they first start using the internet, guide them independently after they go online, and gradually transform them into communicative companions as their children grow older. Families, schools, society, platforms, etc. should further consolidate consensus and study how to coordinate the relationship between the safe online use of minors and development benefits, the protection of minors' networks and the healthy and sustainable development of platforms, and improve the system of minors' network protection work from multiple aspects Yuan Ningning, Deputy Director of the Governance and Legal Research Base for Minors at China University of Political Science and Law, said.
