Before 1995， only scientific research institutions and laboratories could join in the internet in China. By 1995， the China Telecom in Shanghai began to provide internet connection service for the society， this was the start of the commercial internet in China. This opened up the desired black box of the internet for the population， and provided an effective way for them to join in the internet.
