The ad blocking industry is facing a stark challenge from the Chinese government. China\u2019s new Internet Advertising laws includes wording that explicitly prohibits \u201ctampering with or blocking other businesses\u2019 advertisements.\u201d The \u201cInternet Advertising Interim Rules\u201d (Chinese text) were drafted after the tragic death of Wei Zixi, a cancer patient that underwent an unsuccessful experimental cancer treatment, earlier this year. Wei only chose the experimental treatment because it showed up as a top advertised suggestion on Baidu, the leading search engine behind the Great Firewall. Before his death, Wei publicly accused Baidu of having a monopoly on the online Chinese advertising industry that allows misleading or false ads to fool unwitting customers. The resulting public outcry prompted the government to hurriedly investigate internet advertising and draft a new set of rules. China\u2019s new Internet Advertising Interim Rules will go into effect on September 1st, 2016.<\/p>\n

China\u2019s new internet rules will prohibit ad blocking starting September<\/h2>\n

China\u2019s rushed new Internet regulations\u00a0will undoubtedly give some companies pause. Some people might be wondering: How will these new Internet advertising laws effect the soon-to-be completely\u00a0Sinicized Opera Browser? Don\u2019t be surprised if the Chinese version of Opera Browser starts shipping without ad blocking functionality.<\/span> For other ad blocking software, it is impossible to say what will happen next until we see how China goes about enforcing these rules.<\/p>\n

In Germany, the Internet user\u2019s legal right to use ad blocking software<\/a> has been reaffirmed several times. Many publishers have taken ad blocking companies, like Adblock Plus (ABP), to court. One company even argued that displaying ads was a constitutional right, and ad blocking was infringing on said right. In countries with established rule of law, calmer heads prevail and ad blocking remains expressly legal.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, in China, an entire niche industry is about to be outlawed. It is probable that the rule was drafted with the intention of blocking third party malware that replaces legitimate ads with illegal ones; however, the broad wording can and likely will be used against foreign ad blocking companies. ABP has even stated<\/a> that they will leave China if they need to. A\u00a0partner at the Hong Kong office of law firm Hogan Lovells told AdAge<\/a> that\u00a0he thinks Article 16 of the new Internet rules\u00a0does ban ad-blocking:<\/p>\n

\u201cThat wasn\u2019t a surprise, he added, because there was a similar article in a draft version a year ago, and because there have been legal cases on blocking under China\u2019s Anti-Unfair Competition Law.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

English Translation of Internet Advertising Interim Rules Article 16<\/h2>\n
