China tells Alibaba, Tencent to open platforms up to each other - media

Reuters2021-09-11

SHANGHAI, Sept 11 (Reuters) - China's industry ministry has told technology companies including Alibaba Group Ltd and Tencent Holdings Ltd to stop blocking each other's website links from their platforms, the 21st Century Business Herald said Saturday.

The newspaper, citing unnamed sources, said the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology proposed standards to companies on Friday for instant messaging services, telling them all platforms must be unblocked by a certain time.

The ministry said it may have to resort to other measures if the firms did not comply, the newspaper said.

Companies that attended the meeting included Alibaba, Tencent, ByteDance, Baidu Inc, Huawei Technologies Co and Xiaomi Corp, the newspaper said. The companies did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

    I sense a roadmap to deal with anti-competitive practices. I can’t envision how this might end but it is getting interesting over in China.

    Should be neutral in long term as rules apply to all companies... cross exchange between platforms may result in gains for these companies as their customer base may actually expand

    China regulators are advocating and encouraging the tech sector to adopt a level playing field and non monopoly practice. Can expect some profit taking and volatility in the short term as firms adjust to the new operating practices. Good for long term growth under a healthier and stable environment.

    Wait a while to settle down then the company can back into their stock price action. Fundamentally they never change!

      Yup, ignore the short term volatility as they remain fundamentally good companies
