Thank you, CTOnews.com netizens. Hello, rabbit, Xiao Zhan cut the clue delivery! CTOnews.com May 9 news, this morning, the Beijing Municipal Consumer Association publicly advised relevant operators not to force consumers to follow official accounts or use mobile App or Mini Program to order food or shop or pay fees.

Beijing Consumer Association believes that operators will pay attention to official accounts or use mobile phone App or Mini Program as a prerequisite for consumers to exercise their rights or enjoy services, which is unfair and unreasonable to consumers, and is suspected of violating consumers' right to choose independently; by scanning codes to follow official accounts and using Mini Program to obtain consumers' personal information that has nothing to do with services, they are suspected of violating laws and regulations on the protection of personal information.
