The Beijing cyberspace regulator said on Monday that the Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC) had asked it to summon Zhihu for repeatedly “releasing and distributing information forbidden by law and regulations,” as Beijing steps up efforts to control the internet space.

The internet regulator said in a statement that authorities have demanded “immediate rectifications” from the company, and the online question and answer platform would suspend some functions during that period.
