What it does

CAC's public reporting channel for illegal and harmful online information. Under the Labelling Measures for AI-Generated Synthetic Content and the Generative AI Interim Measures, unlabelled or non-compliant AI-generated content falls within its scope. Reports feed CAC enforcement, which can compel takedown and service suspension.

Honest assessment

Honest assessment: this is a domestic content-policing channel, not an AI safety channel. It is Chinese-language only, is oriented to reporting content the state considers illegal or harmful, and typically expects real-name or Chinese-phone-number registration. A foreigner raising a frontier-safety concern here would be using the wrong instrument entirely, and I could not even verify the site's current form. Include it in a directory only with a clear caveat.
