“The COVID-19 vaccine changes human genes.”
In a single broadcaster, Mr. A was recently arrested by the Incheon Metropolitan Police Agency’s cyber investigation team on charges of promoting fear by spreading a clear false fact that has no basis for the corona 19 vaccination. On the 15th of last month, the Incheon office also said, “(Corona 19) vaccine chips were put on the bus station and telephone poles in the area of Namdong-gu, Incheon. A woman in her 60s, who posted a leaflet containing fake news, saying, “If you get a vaccine, you can die,” is being investigated by being arrested.
As the corona 19 vaccination began in earnest, various’fake news’ spread, and the police took an active response. The National Police Agency’s National Investigation Headquarters (noodle version) distributed fake news of the Corona 19 vaccine. Two people were arrested on suspicion, and all nine cases of fake news were in the process of internal investigation and investigation. The police requested the Korea Communications Standards Commission to delete or block 52 cases of fake news related to vaccines. The police cracked down on 131 cases (205 people) related to the spread of fake news from last year’s Corona 19 epidemic to the 3rd. Dissemination of fake news that promotes anxiety related to vaccines can result in up to three years in prison or a fine of up to 30 million won for violating the current Basic Act on Telecommunications. An official from the police explained, “If you indicate your sponsor account and post a fake vaccine-related video on a single-person broadcast, you can consider it as a false communication for the purpose of profit and punish it.” Noodles were popular in countries where vaccination was started before Korea. He said that he would be able to crack down on it thoroughly. The police said, “We will firmly respond to derivative crimes such as voice phishing and smishing that exploit public anxiety as well as dissemination of false manipulation information directly related to public safety related to the corona 19 vaccine. If you find information, please actively report and report through the Cyber Crime Reporting System of the National Police Agency.” By Jae-ho Lee, staff reporter [email protected] ▶Shortcut: “Vaccines and Electronic Chips” are selling fake news, but the Guard’s Office is’closing the store’
