The Company can stop service after a payment demand, or immediately for listed harmful uses, and may report illegal use

Article 12 says that if a user refuses or delays paying service fees, the Company must set a reasonable deadline demanding payment and tell the user that, if unpaid by then, it may stop providing the Business or terminate the user contract early under the contract. Article 13 says the Company may immediately stop providing the Business, with the user bearing responsibility, if it finds the user's use (1) endangers national security or disturbs public order; (2) hinders public order or good morals; (3) steals, alters or destroys others' information; (4) endangers the security of the Company's or others' network systems; or (5) impedes the secrecy of communications. Article 18 says that if a user uses the Business for illegal activities, the Company may report to the relevant units and may treat the user as a refused-dealing account.
