According to local media reports, the survey says 69% of the respondents believe information on the Internet is highly trustworthy and they regard the Internet as a main source of acquiring information. 27% of them think the Internet can be used as a reference or guide for their daily behaviors.
Regarding enterprise credit, 52% of the respondents say they trust branded or well-established websites. 38% of them believe in websites that have passed relevant certification and only 10% of the Internet users find reliable websites through the introduction of others or through their own identification via search engines or reading in news reports.
