中国可能实行网络实名制 （翻译贴）

  新闻内容：

BEIJING (Reuters) - China may require internet users to register with their real names when signing up to network providers, state media said on Tuesday, extending a policy already in force with microblogs in a bid to curb what officials call rumors and vulgarity.

北京（路透社）
周二官方媒体报道，中国可能将要求网络用户以实名向网络供应商注册。此前相关实名政策已在微博施行，以控制官方所谓的谣言和低俗信息。这一举措将是对微博实名制的扩展。

A law being discussed this week would mean people would have to present their government-issued identity cards when signing contracts for fixed line and mobile internet access, state-run newspapers said.

官方报纸称，本周正在讨论的一项法规草案可能意味着未来人们在注册申请固定或移动网络服务时需要提供政府颁发的身份证。

"The law should escort the development of the internet to protect people's interest," Communist Party mouthpiece the
People's Daily said in a front page commentary, echoing similar calls carried in state media over the past week.

“……让法治为网络发展护航，保护权利……”GCD喉舌人民日报在头版的评论员文章中如是说，以回应过去一周国营媒体发出的类似呼吁。

"Only that way can our internet be healthier, more cultured and safer."

“……我们的网络才能更文明、更健康、更安全……”

Many users say the restrictions are clearly aimed at further muzzling the often scathing, raucous - and perhaps most significantly,
anonymous - online chatter in a country where the Internet offers a rare opportunity for open debate.

许多用户认为新规定明显是为了进一步钳制经常会十分尖刻、刺耳的网络交流——也许最值得注意的是这种交流是匿名的。而在中国，网络提供了罕见的公开讨论的机会。

It could also prevent people from exposing corruption online if they fear retribution from officials, said some users.

一些用户认为，新规定也将阻止人们进行“网络反腐”，他们可能会害怕官方的打击报复。

It was unclear how the rules would be different from existing regulations as state media has provided only vague details and in
practice customers have long had to present identity papers when signing contracts with internet providers.

由于官方媒体只提供了模糊的信息，目前还不清楚新规定和现有规定有何区别。实际上很早之前用户们在向网络供应商注册时就需要提供身份文件。

Earlier this year, the government began forcing users of Sina Corp's wildly successful Weibo microblogging platform to register their real names.

今年早些时候，政府开始强制新浪公司旗下非常成功的微博平台进行用户实名注册。

The government says such a system is needed to prevent people making malicious and anonymous accusations online and that many other countries already have such rules.

政府声称这一举措是为了制止人们在网上发布恶意信息及匿名指控，而且很多其他国家也已实行了类似法规。

"It would also be the biggest step backwards since 1989," wrote one indignant Weibo user, in apparent reference to the 1989
pro-democracy protests bloodily suppressed by the army.

“这可能是自1989年以来的最大倒退，”一位愤愤不平的微博用户写道，他明显说的是1989年遭到军队血腥镇压的民主抗议者。

Chinese internet users have long had to cope with extensive censorship, especially over politically sensitive topics like human
rights, and popular foreign sites Facebook, Twitter and Google-owned YouTube are blocked.

中国的网络用户长期以来都面临着无所不在的网络审查，特别是有关政治的敏感话题，例如人权。一些著名外国网站如脸书、推特和谷歌旗下的YouTube也遭到屏蔽。

Despite periodic calls for political reform, the ruling Communist Party has shown no sign of loosening its grip on power and brooks no dissent to its authority.

尽管存在周期性的政治改革呼声，执政的GCD并没表现出放松权力控制的迹象，也不能容忍对其权威地位的异议。
