Its the public posts the are supposed to censor
"The BBC reported that Tencent was fined in September for not censoring users' posts robustly enough."

I don't think that fine relates to chats, which as far as I can tell are stored locally, not on their clouds.
The UK is pretty much demanding the same thing from facebook etc... censor the terrorists! who knows what it'll be next... The activists... The scientists that dissagree with the governments own...

The expanding problem for the likes of a WeChat, with existing systems of sensitive message control, is whenever completely new and surreal intelligence channels, freely share completely novel information for point of entry peer review, with a view/mind to engage All with ESPecial Peers of the Realm.
Is it easy to ignore and not further navigate/investigate/suggestively lead direction with any shared opinion on such a fabulous delicacy, El Regers?
Wakey, Wakey, ....... Let's Hear and Share Your Voice, so All can See what Can Be, with that which is recognised as IS, and a Present with Bases Ground ZeroD, the Heavenly Playing Field for Augmented Virtual Reality Transformation with Immortal Transubstantiations Aiding and Abetting Celestial Progress.
That's Headline News, El Reg ......... and not for anyone to sit on, or to have sat on, whenever such information explodes.

Fortunately here in America...
...we don't have the kinds of leaders who would enact laws and abuse the entire national surveillance framework just to identify individuals who post on social media exercising their American rights to criticize, parody, and protest those leaders.

Unfortunately here in America... is IT a Blood, Sweat and Tears Abortion of an Operation?
What about the kind of leaders in remote anonymous touch with greater intelligence services in national surveillance frameworks identifying renegade rogue individuals abusing posting on social media exercising America with inalienable rights that criticize, parody, and protest lesser intelligence in all and any leaderships?
Are they APTly ACTive and Successfully Rooting Future Events for Uncle Sam Systems Enterprise?
Or do they do AI Battle against both Fickle Friend and Fiendish Foe alike, and thus Lose Time and Effort and Assets to their Enemy and Squander All Earned Credibility that would Reinforce and Guarantee Future AI Lead Positions?
