Why did Alipay go offline when the trip went offline?

The service of "Communication Travel Card" is offline, and the inquiry channels such as SMS, webpage, WeChat applet, Alipay applet and app of "Communication Travel Card" are offline simultaneously. The "travel card" that has accompanied us for nearly three years has officially become history. Many people posted screenshots in the WeChat circle of friends to commemorate this product born of the epidemic.

Among people's sighs, there are both the gratification of "finally waiting for this moment" and the disappointment of "thanks to the guardian, I didn't expect to disappear so soon". Looking back on these three years, it is not difficult to understand people's complex emotions at this moment. The travel card was launched in February 2020. At that time, faced with the problem of how to trace the individual's action track, the big data provided by the "travel card" provided important help for the epidemic prevention and control work of individuals and relevant departments-opening the travel code and accurately inquiring about the individual's travel in the past 14 days, which not only helped individuals to prove their travel conveniently, but also improved the travel inspection efficiency of enterprises, communities, transportation and other departments, so as to realize the early detection, early reporting and patients in various industries.

The epidemic has brought many changes to public life, and this green arrow has always been with us. In April this year, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology introduced that "Communication travel itinerary" provided 654.38+600 million times of inquiry service every day, providing services for people's daily travel, production and life under the epidemic situation. In personal life, the promotion and use of digital vouchers such as "travel cards" have also helped people to further establish a sense of "being responsible for themselves". Before deciding where to go, individuals often weigh the impact of each move on their subsequent lives.

In recent years, with the continuous weakening of the virulence of Omicron mutant, the situation and tasks of epidemic prevention and control in China have also changed. The "Ten Articles of New China" clearly stated that non-high-risk areas should not restrict the flow of people, and should not stop work, production or business. Restrictive conditions such as nucleic acid inspection have also been cancelled in airports, high-speed trains, subways and highways around the country. At this time, the three major operators announced that the "travel code" was offline, and said that they would delete user data, making the "travel card" the first epidemic data product to bid farewell to people, and also sent a new signal to people that mobilization has become an urgent task for the entire social and economic recovery.

In fact, free traffic has been happening recently. There are news of delegations from all over Jiangsu and Zhejiang going abroad to study and talk about the list. These pioneering cases of "grabbing orders at sea" were taken away by the government and enterprises, which also encouraged more places and enterprises to "go out", "move" and "don't be afraid"; The cancellation of this "travel code" encourages the free flow of individuals and prepares for the comprehensive recovery and activation of social and economic life. Therefore, while this small green arrow is swiping the screen in the circle of friends, it also makes enterprises in tourism, catering and other industries that are greatly affected by the epidemic sprout expectations.

The cancellation of this green arrow sends a clear signal to people: the epidemic prevention and control measures are further optimized and the society is further liberalized. However, in reality, although all localities have issued notices that public places will no longer query all kinds of "codes", in practice, there will still be some places that continue to query "codes" for reasons such as epidemic prevention safety and inertial operation. Such overweight seems to be well-intentioned, and it will also cause people to question the situation of epidemic prevention and control. The three major operators take the initiative to get off the "travel card" in time, which can eradicate the possibility of overweight from the source. Only when more and more individuals and institutions receive and accept this signal, form a new understanding of the new situation, and turn this understanding into daily actions, will our individual life and social life be truly normal.

It is worth mentioning that the timely cancellation of the "travel card" and the deletion of personal information also reflect the essence of the service life of technology. In the past three years, people's acceptance of various epidemic data products fully reflects their understanding and cooperation in epidemic prevention work; Nowadays, after the central government has further clarified and optimized the epidemic prevention and control measures, the timely handling of personal information by operators reflects the protection of personal data use boundaries by technology developers, which is conducive to building people's confidence in transferring information use rights. This operation is worthy of consideration and emulation by other technology holders.
