August 16, 2012, 360 low-key online comprehensive search, within one weeks that won nearly 10% of the search share, the 3B War officially launched. Until more than a number of search engines signed the protocol, the 3B war only to be appeased. But 360 has aimed at the search market, has launched its own search products and Baidu to contend with, and determined to attack in 2013 30% of the share of the 3B war after the climax has actually begun to brew more "see" the War small war.

Then LA, January 26, 2013, 360 and Baidu contradictions again, let's call it "3B World War Ii.". It is worth mentioning that the Second World War was launched by the gentle Baidu, it seems to announce to the world that they are very wolf. Let's take a brief look at the cause of the Second World War:

Excerpted from Xinhua News:

26th night, a lot of netizens in Sina Weibo issued a screenshot, in the login Baidu to promote the management system, the Web page prompts the request to install "Baidu security Control", after installation prompts the use of 360 browser users to replace other browsers, otherwise can not login Baidu promotion management system.

It is understood that Baidu to promote the management system mainly for Baidu agents, Baidu Advertiser and Baidu Alliance, the user amount about in millions, these users must login Baidu to promote the management system to carry out advertising business. Baidu believes that the Baidu Business customer account system involves a large amount of funds and confidential business transaction information, with a higher demand for information security. We recommend that customers choose internationally renowned brands and have a good reputation in protecting the privacy of their users.

For this behavior of Baidu, 360 immediately to counterattack, held a press conference said that Baidu coerce users "two choose one", is an unfair competition behavior.

In fact, the biggest aspect of the waves is not two how to spell a Life-and-death, in the eyes of ordinary users will not be what the World War small war in mind, these so-called gimmicks are giants of the saliva battle. If you have to dig up something that is worth the average user's life from this 3B World War, that is for Kazakhstan has always been gentle Baidu will take the initiative to provoke a strong 360, this practice how to look for Baidu is not worth, because many people will feel that Baidu will in any case fell into a muddy water, Even if it is in the name of safeguarding the interests of users or customers, 360 is how to make things big.

So, Baidu this practice is really want to maintain the interests of users or customers? The official announcement is of course high-sounding, but that can only be seen, the merchant belly is what who is not sure. But careful analysis is really like that, let people feel that Baidu is really in the fight for justice. Because the Baidu's move with the vast number of ordinary users, but involving less than millions of enterprises and collaborators, even if the ban on this part of the use of 360 browsers, the impact on its share is negligible. Moreover, it has nothing to do with the average user, and the influence on reputation will not be great.

Taking into account the various negative reports of the previous 360 browsers on privacy, combined with the current practice of Baidu, it seems that the move also said in the past, but this time to put forward this matter, seems to be slightly lagging behind, because 360 of the browser negative news most of the time has passed, 360 browser detection results have been out for a long time, Baidu at this time to take such measures, is it deliberately to show that their purpose is very pure? If so, that would be ridiculous, because if you come to the door, you will surely be 360.

In 360, after a press conference, Baidu has released the so-called "about Baidu" Phoenix Nest "Customer management internal system security Upgrade statement", stressed the purpose of his move, and further stabbed "a browser" is not safe. From this, Baidu's goal is not so pure, how many with a point of commercial competition, otherwise why unilateral pointer "a browser" family? In fact, standing in the merchant's point of view, even if it is to put a fart is also in order to smelly dead opponents, how can the mother of the world for the User Service, most of the cases are only soft hijacked users to compete. Baidu's approach, from a commercial competition point of view, at least to protect their own customer resources. From the 360 search for their own advertising system began, to 360 and Google to sell ads, I believe Baidu is also seen in the eyes, shaking in the heart. Since Baidu itself admits that "a browser" has the possibility of stealing user information and business information, if the information is really being taken away by competitors, at least customers will be more than one choice, and then be instigated, perhaps directly caused the loss of customers.

From this point of view, it seems that this is a "difficult decision", but this time it looks more secretive. The "tough decisions" I'm talking about here are from the standpoint of the user or the customer, because every time that this decision is announced, it means that the user's interests are being raped. If the above analysis is established, the rape is the choice of clients and partners.

It seems that China's internet bosses like to do such a thing, is like to do such a "difficult decision", each time will appear very painful full of helplessness to a decision, and then pretended to be tears cow face to take the interests of the user to do competition chips or shield. In fact, users who have empty tube you have much pain, the interests are hurt is hurt, in any case this means are inferior. From "3Q war" Tencent's decision, to "3B war" Baidu sued 360 to crawl Baidu Open products (open products essentially owned by users), and now "3B World War", it seems that users suffer much. Foreign giants do not seem to do this kind of thing, like Bing and Google, even if the two sides of a special site to pick each other's fault, a big fight, also do not want to take the interests of users. Perhaps there is no foreign 360 this special role, it seems that no difficult decision is not related to him, but the decision is never him.

This 3B World War is another difficult decision we also do not want to pay attention to, this kind of thing is too tired, ordinary users do not have the mind to listen to you a few giants noisy, we just want to protect their most basic interests. This time Baidu made 360 on the PC end of the Lifeblood browser, I believe that the Spring festival they will be in each other bite to spend. Our ordinary users do not want to ask too many rivers and lakes, just hope that the end of the "use of 360 browser users can not browse Baidu content" This "super difficult decision" on it.
