　　2. E-commerce companies such as JD.com and Tmall are downplaying publicity for the sale of anti-smog items.

　　Mr. Zhang, a Beijing citizen, bought several boxes of anti-smog masks online during the "Double Eleven" period in 2017, and used them only a few times in two or three days when the air quality was poor in late November and at the end of December. He said that in the past, when you entered the house in winter, you had to open the air purifier, but now the purifier has almost become a decoration. Compared with the past, e-commerce platforms such as JD.com and Tmall have also weakened their publicity for anti-smog masks and air purifiers. Many dealers' warehouses are "full of masks", and the goods are worth at least several million yuan. One dealer's inventory of masks is even worth as much as 20 million yuan, which is very sad this winter. (Source: China Business Network)

　　3. Alipay responds to bill service agreement incident: We were wrong and this method is very stupid

　　On January 3, Alipay released its annual consumer bill. Yue Yishan, a partner of Yue Cheng Law Firm, revealed on Weibo that there is a line on the homepage of Alipay's bill, "I agree to the "Sesame Service Agreement". Not only is the word "Sesame Service Agreement", but it has also helped you choose "Agree", which leads to serious user information security risks. On the evening of January 3, Alipay responded to the incident of Alipay's bill being agreed to the "Sesame Service Agreement" that occurred today: Ant Financial stated that when users check the annual bill, the default check "I agree to the "Sesame Service Agreement" must be done wrong. They originally wanted to fully respect the user's right to know, but the original intention was correct, but they chose a very stupid way, which was extremely stupid. (Source: Lianshang.com)

　　Today's Lao Gao's opinion

　　All reforms have huge risks, and I admire Zhang Xiaolong. Zhang Xiaolong once shared the pressure in the early stages of WeChat development. The voice communication function directly touched the red line of telecom operators. Even Liu Chengmin, who was in charge of wireless services within Tencent at that time, begged him to wait until Tencent and Telecom communicated properly before launching WeChat. Later, Ma Huateng personally intervened and "released first" with huge risks. In the end, he forced telecom operators to accept reality and compromise.
