[0021] The first rule set stores keywords related to public opinion. The analysis in step two is to extract keywords from the extracted text and compare the extracted keywords with the keywords related to public opinion in the first rule set. When there are matching items, the output analysis result is abnormal; otherwise, it is normal.

[0022] The processor also performs the following operations: The extracted text is sent to the central management platform via the communication module; the central management platform analyzes the text according to the second rule set to obtain another analysis result; when the analysis result is abnormal, a power cut-off command is sent to the processor.
