The Internet is the express way for conveying various information in a timely manner.

    But it has been recently reported that Chinese firms and agencies are hiring employees to delete web postings that contain negative opinions or information about them or their products.

    A commentary on the Worker's Daily says the rapid development of the Internet in China has given the public better access to all kinds of information, but that some businesses have growing concerns about negative information being leveled agaisnt them on the Internet.

    Therefore, many are hiring employees whose job is to monitor, review and delete negative web postings about them.

    The commentary notes that deleting web posts that companies deem negative is a denial of people's rights to know the information.

    It argues that those who delete such information are sometimes protecting unscrupulous businesspeople by preventing the public from knowing the truth about their practices and products.

    The commentary concludes that deleting web posts should be supervised by related departments.

    Firms that delete web postings that contain negative information about them or their products in order to protect their own interests should also be punished.

    互联网在第一时间，迅速快捷地传递各种信息。

    但是最近有报道说，中国的公司专门聘人清除网页上关于公司或其产品的负面评价或信息。

    工人日报的一篇社论谈到，互联网在中国的飞速发展让人们能够更好的了解各方面的信息，因此一些公司日渐注意到被人们上传到网上的关于公司的负面信息影响了公司的形象。

    于是，很多公司雇人去监查网页，删除负面帖子。

    评论强调，删除公司的负面帖子，是对人权的否定，蒙蔽人们对公司及产品的真实了解。

    有人称，删信息的人有时也是为了防御不道德的人阻止公众知道公司行为和产品的真相。

    评论最后说，相关部门应该监视删网页帖子的行为。

    公司为了保护自己的利益而删去对公司或其产品的负面评价，应该受到惩罚。
