China’s internet regulator, the Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC), issued a new rule on Monday to tighten scrutiny on internet account profiles, especially with job information verification. The new rule stipulates that people who show job titles on their accounts must provide truthful information. Online service providers like Weibo and WeChat must proceed with background checks to verify professional fields, including law, education, finance, and medical health. The new rule will go into effect on August 1. [CAC, in Chinese]
