Can't make wild scenic spots a "deadly traffic"

The emergencies of the "August 13th" of Pengzhou City, Sichuan Province are worrying. According to the latest local report, the search and rescue investigation work on the spot is nearing completion. As of 13:00 on the 14th, after the rescue forces such as fire protection, public security, etc., there were no new lost and casualties. The disaster currently caused 7 deaths and 8 minor injuries. The videos and pictures of the outbreak of mountain floods spread on the Internet, impacting people's emotions, and warning the ruthlessness of natural disasters.

Such a casualties make people regret, but it can have been largely avoided. According to reports, Longconggou, the incident, is not a regular scenic spot. The scenery here is beautiful, but it belongs to the location of geological disasters. Natural disasters such as mudslides and floods are prone to occur. What's more, Longconggou is said to be a flood discharge channel, and the danger is self -evident. The local government had previously erected multiple warning signs near Longconggou, pulled up the wire mesh, and often sent staff to persuade the players, but the results were very small. On the day of the occurrence of mountain floods, the Longmen Mountain Town Government immediately persuaded tourists along the river after receiving a meteorological warning. But tragedy still happened.

Why is it difficult to discourage people's enthusiasm for repeated security warnings? It must be said that the "recommendation" of "Internet celebrities" is difficult to blame. On a number of social platforms, Longcougou is a recent popular "wild net red card". Many posts recommend camping and barbecue here. Because the Longconggou River belongs to the area prohibited by the local area, even some of the web posts entered the river with "turning over the mountains" and entered the river. With the popularity of Longcougou, according to local villagers, there have been obvious people who have recently played here, and many people camped in the river. Before the flood disaster, related social platforms had no risk prompts to such network posts.

This situation is by no means individual. In the past two years, a large number of tourism "net red land", under the label of "fashion" and "hunting", has also emerged, which has also caused many hidden dangers. For example, the U -shaped highway in Qinghai section of the National Highway 315, tourists pile up POSE to take pictures in the middle of the road, and even forced to stop passing vehicles and even heavy trucks. The local traffic police patrolled and set up warning signs many times, but it was still difficult to prevent violations. There is also a tunnel in Ningbo City. Some web posts call it "the most beautiful star tunnel" and posted photos of bloggers standing in the middle of the tunnel, causing tourists to follow suit. In addition, the same is true of Hainan, and even bloggers take "every step forward, and risks in life" as a gimmick. In recent years, many safety accidents in the "wild" tourist attraction are related to "Internet celebrities".

The intensive appearance of "wild network redemption land" has proposed a new topic for security supervision in various places. It is necessary for relevant local authorities to further increase management and eliminate hidden safety hazards. This work needs to be more detailed and must be more responsible.

At the same time, major websites should also take on platform responsibilities and launch a cleaning operation on related network posts with hidden safety hazards. my country's "E -Commerce Law" and other laws have regulations on the review of platform operators and security guarantee obligations. However, due to the relevant recommendations of social platforms, it is a relatively "new" phenomenon, and the relevant rules are currently lacking. Relevant departments shall introduce relevant specific implementation regulations for the latest situation. The platform must strengthen the safety audit. We must not harvest traffic before the incident. After the incident, I only deleted posts. After a few days, I turned around and recommended other "Internet celebrities". This approach is not only immoral, but also suspected of illegal law.

Now, more and more people want to share the beauty of the journey online, which is originally a good thing. But under the stimulus of traffic, some sharing has changed. The traffic is very fragrant and the scenery is beautiful, but no "punch card" is worth using life to bet. We need to maintain basic rationality on the "Internet celebrity punching place". Individuals cannot trust blindly, and websites need to take responsibility. And those cards that need to be "fighting hard" should not appear in the recommendation of social platforms from the beginning.
