Tencent says it's in contact with Russian authorities over its ban on the use of Wechat.
腾讯公司日前表示,他们正与俄罗斯当局就禁用微信进行沟通。
Russia's telecom watchdog announced earlier this week that WeChat is not in compliance with Russia's information laws. At issue is registration.俄罗斯电信监管机构在本周早些时候宣称,微信不符合俄罗斯信息法的相关规定。而主要的问题就在于登记。Internet-based companies which have links in Russia are required to register with the government.与俄罗斯有联系的互联网公司都必须向政府登记注册。Tencent says it "had a different understanding" of the issue.
但腾讯方面声称,他们对这个问题有不同的理解。Other social media apps, including Blackberry Messenger, Imo and Line, have also run into similar restrictions in Russia.其他社交软件,比如Blackberry Messenger, Imo和Line,在俄罗斯同样也受到了类似的限制。WeChat is available in a vast majority of countries around the world. Tencent says it has around 900-million users worldwide.微信在世界上的大多数国家都可以使用。据腾讯方面表示,微信在全世界范围内大约拥有9亿用户。
