致中国用户
苹果公司证实星期五已经开始储存位于中国的客户信息服务器,一开始是为了公司,后来因为审查制度和其他的担心,技术公司于是做出了移出服务器于中国的最近的趋势。
这个数据属于中国用户,并以加密的形式储存在由中国电信公司提供的服务器中,这并不能获得破解密码信息的密码钥匙,华尔街日报报道道。用户数据将包括图片,e-mail以及其他储存在苹果云设施中的其他信息,公司说越接近用户的服务器越容易取得快速的服务。
这一运动将和谷歌2010年的决定相反,那次决定决定将所有的服务器移出中国大陆,然后进入香港,就在公司拒绝迎合中国政府审核订单的时候。
“苹果公司对用户的安全和隐私非常看重。”公司对华尔街日报这样说。我们已经添加中国电信进入我们的信息中心提供者的名单,从而增加带宽和提高在中国大陆我们客户的行为。
这一举动已经增加了对苹果能力和承诺的担忧,为了确保用户信息的安全性。国家已经有了一个和技术公司相抗衡的历史,包括在美国的公司。在2005年,为了遵守中国文件的请求,雅虎引来了炮火,这次请求使得一名记者进了监狱。在七月,在一次反垄断调查中,中国权威机构袭击了在中国四个城市的微软的办公室。(欲了解更多前沿资讯,请关注中国进出口网:www.Chinainout.com)
For Chinese user.
Apple confirmed Friday that is has begun storing user data in servers located in China, a first for the company and a shift from the recent trend of tech firms moving servers out of China due to censorship and other concerns.
The data belongs to Chinese users and is being stored in encrypted form on servers provided by China Telecom Corp, which will not have access to password keys needed to decrypt the information, the Wall Street Journal reports. User data will include pictures, email and other information stored in Apple’s iCloud service—the company says servers located closer to users will make service faster.
The move stands in contrast to Google’s decision in 2010 to move all its services out of mainland China and into Hong Kong after the company declined to comply with a Chinese government censorship order.
“Apple takes user security and privacy very seriously,” the company said in a statement to the Journal. “We have added China Telecom to our list of data center providers to increase bandwidth and improve performance for our customers in mainland China.”
The move has raised concerns about Apple’s ability, or commitment, to keep user data secure. The country has a history of playing rough with tech firms, including firms based in the United States. In 2005, Yahoo drew fire for complying with a Chinese data request that landed a Chinese journalist in prison. In July, Chinese authorities raided the offices of Microsoft in four cities across China in an anti-monopoly investigation.
