> CNNIC is super trustworthy to a lot of people

No, CNNIC is not even trustworthy among Chinese Internet users.

CNNIC invented tons of rootkit adware and spyware. It has a very bad reputation. Google for 3721 中文网址 if you are interested

Although it claims to be a neutral non-profit organization, it does have multiple for-profit business lines.

In the past CNNIC belongs to China Academy of Science, but now it's just a puppet under ruling Party's control[1][2].
