I-FTC vs i-NGL — kungani izimangalo zokudabula ukungaziwa ziwubuqili
Ngomhla ka-9 Julayi 2024, i-US Federal Trade Commission yamemezela ukuvumelana ngokumelene ne-NGL Labs nabasunguli bayo Raj Vir no-Joao Figueiredo — inhlawulo ye-$5,000,000 kanye nomyalo ongapheli ovimbela inkampani ukuvumela abancane abangaphansi kwe-18 ukubhalisa. Isihloko se-FTC sasicacile: “NGL Labs and its co-founders Banned from Hosting App for Minors.”
Isimangalo sokuqala i-NGL eyakha phezu kwaso imali engenayo kwakuwukuthi ukubhalisela kwenyanga ne-NGL Pro kusebenzisa “i-AI” ukudalula ukuthi ubani othumele insizwa umyalezo ongaziwa. Uphenyo lwe-FTC lwafakazela ukuthi isimangalo sasiyiphutha ngokuphelele: lokho izingane ezazikhokhela kona kwakuyizilingo ezijwayelekile ezifana nokuthi “umthumeli ufunda esikoleni esiseduze” — izibalo ezivamile, hhayi ukuqonda kwe-algorithm.
Isahluko esimnyama kakhulu socaso: i-FTC yabhala ukuthi i-NGL ngokwayo yayithumela imiyalezo yamanga yamabhothi kubasebenzisi bayo abancane, eyenzelwe ukubukeka njengemiyalezo evela ontanga bakubo — izinsolo ezothusayo ezifana no-“Ngiyayazi imfihlo yakho” noma “Ngikubonile izolo”. Inhloso yayo kwakuwukudala ukwethuka okwakuzoncinza ingane ukuthi ithuthukele ku-NGL Pro ukuze “ithole ukuthi ubani oyithumele”. Uhlelo lwaludala icala bese lithengisa isixazululo.
Iphuzu elijulile lobuchwepheshe: akekho ongadalula ubuqu bomthumeli ngokobuchwepheshe ku-app yemiyalezo engaziwa eyakhiwe kahle. I-app ebucayi ayigcini ukuxhumana okuhlelwe phakathi kobuqu bomthumeli nokuqukethwe komyalezo kunoma yisiphi isendlalelo esingabuzwa. Lokhu kuyisithiyo sezibalo sokwakheka, hhayi isethembiso sokumaketha esingahoxiswa ekuvuseleleni kwesikhathi esizayo. Noma iyiphi i-app ebanga ukuthi ingadabula umthumeli ivuma ukuthi ibilugcine lolo xhumano ngaso sonke isikhathi — okusho ukuthi wonke umthumeli owayethembe wayevezwe kusukela ekuqaleni.
I-Sarhny yakhelwe kusukela osukwini lokuqala ezungeze umgomo wokuthi uhlelo ngokwalo alikwazi ukudalula umthumeli. Lokhu akusona isethembiso — kuyisithiyo sezibalo. Asigcini ithebula elixhumanisa “umyalezo X wavela kumsebenzisi Y,” asikhiqizi “izinkomba” zokwenziwa, futhi asikaze sithumele imiyalezo yamabhothi ehlonyiswe njengabangane. Isinqumo se-FTC ngokumelene ne-NGL asizange sisimangaze — kwaba ukuqinisekiswa kwalokho esasikwazi kusukela ekuqaleni: imodeli yebhizinisi ye-“dalula umthumeli” iyinkohliso esezingeni lesakhiwo.
Kungani i-NGL yatshaywa inhlawulo ye-$5M ngo-2024 — impendulo emfushane
I-NGL yatshaywa inhlawulo ye-$5 million ngomhla ka-9 Julayi 2024 ngoba i-FTC yase-US yaqinisekisa amaqiniso amathathu: ukubhalisela kwe-NGL Pro kwakuthengisa izilingo ezijwayelekile sengathi kuyisidabuli somthumeli esihlakaniphile; i-app ngokwayo yayithumela imiyalezo yamanga yamabhothi ehlonyiswe njengabangane bakubo ukudala ukwethuka nokuphoqa abancane ezingeni elikhokhelwayo; futhi inkampani yavumela abancane abangaphansi kwe-18 ukubhalisa kuphula umthetho wokuvikelwa kwezingane. Umyalo wawungeyona nje inhlawulo — wavimbela unomphela inkampani ukuthi isebenzise i-app yabancane.

Kungani “dalula umthumeli” kuyinkinga eyisisekelo
Ama-app emiyalezo engaziwa asekelwe esithembisweni esisodwa kubasebenzisi: ubuqu bakho bufihliwe. Lapho nje i-app ithengisa isici se-“dalula” kumamukeli, ukwethembana komthumeli kuyadilika ngokuphelele. Inkundla ishintsha isuka ensizeni yobuqotho ibe yindlela engaba yisigqila.
I-Sarhny yazibophezela kusukela osukwini lokuqala ukuthi ngeke ikhiphe lesi sici, noma kunenzuzo kangakanani. Lokhu akusona isikhawulo sesikhashana — kuyisinqumo sokuklama esingapheli esibhalwe ku- khasi lethu lolwazi.
Ungashintshela kanjani ku-Sarhny usuka ku-NGL

Imibuzo evame ukubuzwa
Yini umehluko oyinhloko phakathi kwe-NGL ne-Sarhny?
I-NGL yi-app eqala ngesiNgisi enokusekelwa kwesi-Arabhu okuphakathi nendawo, ikhuthaza isici sokukhokha se-'dalula umthumeli' (i-FTC eyatshaya inkampani inhlawulo ye-$5M ngaso ngo-2024). I-Sarhny iyisi-Arabhu sangempela, izibophezele ukungathengisi ubuqu bomthumeli, futhi inikeza izici i-NGL engenazo njengezibuko ne-crystallization.
Kungani i-NGL yatshaywa inhlawulo yi-FTC?
NgoJulayi 2024, i-US Federal Trade Commission yatshaya i-NGL Labs inhlawulo ye-$5 million ngokukhohlisa izingane ezisencane ukuthi zikholelwe ukuthi ukubhalisela kwe-'NGL Pro' kuzodalula ubuqu bangempela bomthumeli — kanti izinkomba ezanikezwa zaziyizilingo ezijwayelekile, hhayi amaqiniso. Ukwephula ngqo umthetho wokuvikela abathengi.
Ingabe i-Sarhny inikeza ukuhlanganiswa kwe-Instagram Stories okufanayo ne-NGL?
Yebo. Ungabelana ngesixhumanisi sephrofayela yakho (sarhny.com/username) noma sesibuko sakho ku-Instagram Story kalula kanjalo. Umehluko: i-Sarhny ivula ngqo kusiphequluli (umuzwa osheshayo), kanti i-NGL iphoqa abasebenzisi ukuthi baye ku-app ye-NGL ukuze kuqhutshekwe ukufakwa.
Ngidinga i-app ye-NGL ehlukile, noma i-Sarhny iyanele?
I-Sarhny isebenza ngokuphelele kusiphequluli, futhi sinama-app e-iOS ne-Android kubasebenzisi abangumqansa. Awudingi i-NGL ngokwehlukana — i-Sarhny inikeza zonke izici zayo nokunye, ngomuzwa wesi-Arabhu ohlanzekile.
Ngabe ama-app emiyalezo engaziwa angakudalula ngempela ubuqu bomthumeli?
Cha. Noma iyiphi i-app yemiyalezo engaziwa ebanga ukudalula umthumeli nge-'AI' iyakhohlisa noma iveza ngokuthule idatha eyayingathembisanga ukuyigcina. Isinqumo se-FTC sika-2024 ngokumelene ne-NGL sasungula ngokomthetho ukuthi ukuzuza imali ngezimangalo zokudabula ubuqu kuyinkohliso yabathengi. Ngokobuchwepheshe, i-app eklanyelwe kahle ayigcini ukuxhumana okungabuzwa phakathi kobuqu bomthumeli nokuqukethwe komyalezo, okwenza ukudalula kungenzeki — ngisho nohlelo ngokwalo.
Kwenzekani ocaso lwe-FTC vs i-NGL lwango-2024?
Ngomhla ka-9 Julayi 2024, i-US Federal Trade Commission yamemezela ukuvumelana okungu-$5 million ngokumelene ne-NGL Labs nabasunguli bayo uRaj Vir noJoao Figueiredo. Umyalo wavimbela unomphela inkampani ukuvumela abancane abangaphansi kwe-18 ukubhalisa, wathi izimangalo ze-AI-decoder ze-NGL 'ziyamanga futhi ziyakhohlisa,' futhi wembula ukuthi i-app ngokwayo yayithumela imiyalezo yamanga yamabhothi ehlonyiswe njengemiyalezo evela kubangane bengane — ukubaphoqa ukuthi bathuthukele ekubhaliseleni okukhokhelwayo.
Kungani i-Sarhny iphephile ngokuklama?
Ngoba ukwakheka kwe-Sarhny akugcini ukuxhumana okungabuzwa phakathi kobuqu bomthumeli nokuqukethwe komyalezo. Noma uhlangothi lwangaphandle lungafuna ukudalulwa kobuqu, uhlelo ngokwalo alugcini lolo lwazi ngendlela engabuyiswa. Lokhu akusona isethembiso sokumaketha esingahoxiswa ekuvuseleleni kwesikhathi esizayo — kuyisithiyo sesakhiwo, esibhalwe obala ekhasini lethu lolwazi nenqubomgomo yobumfihlo.
Ngiphatha kanjani umyalezo ocasulayo ngaphandle kokuzama ukudalula umthumeli?
Okokuqala: khumbula ukuthi umyalezo usho okuningi ngomthumeli kunokusho ngawe. Okwesibili: sebenzisa inkinobho yokubika eyakhelwe ngaphakathi — ithimba lethu lokulawula lihlola imibiko ngaphakathi kwamahora angu-24 futhi livimbele ama-akhawunti ahlukumezayo. Okwesithathu: uma imiyalezo iwusongo olukhulu (ukuphanjwa, usongo lokulimaza), bika kuziphathimandla zakini; siyasebenzisana ngokomthetho nezicelo eziqinisekisiwe zabaphoqi bomthetho. Impendulo akuyona 'ukwazi ukuthi ubani othumele' — impendulo yimingcele namathuluzi okuvikela.
