Xianyu · Full chronicle and history

Recently, the Xianyu platform blocked keywords related to AI service top-ups such as ChatGPT and WorkBuddy. Subsequently, sellers began using underworld jargon like 'genius programmer Tibo' and 'Ultraman monthly pass' to evade censorship. Practical testing on September 21 showed that these slang keywords can no longer be searched for on Xianyu.

An undercover investigation by Hebei Television found that the Xianyu platform harbors a pornographic traffic-routing industrial chain disguised as photoshoot appointments and fitness. Customer service claimed they could provide services involving minors as young as 14, using high prices and fake medical certifications as bait to route users to private domains for transactions.
