Abstract:
On October 16, the Shapingba District Branch of the Chongqing Municipal Public Security Bureau issued a notice yesterday on the WeChat account "Ping An Shapingba", announcing three typical cases of online rumors and online violence involving enterprises. The notice mentioned that in order to gain attention and attract followers, netizen Wang (male, 38 years old) used AI software to generate fake articles in batches. He fabricated false content about a car company's product such as "a smart car crashed into a guardrail and blamed the driver" and published it on the Internet platform, causing misunderstandings and panic among users and disrupting the order of cyberspace. Currently, Wang has been administratively detained in accordance with the law.
Case 2: In order to vent his emotions and attract attention, netizen Yang (male, 29 years old) fabricated and published rumors and information such as that a car company was "facing divestment and had financial fraud" to maliciously slander the company's image. Currently, Yang has been administratively detained in accordance with the law.
Case 3: In order to vent his emotions and attract attention, netizen Chen (male, 44 years old) publicly posted insulting and threatening remarks on a car company manager on many online platforms, seriously interfering with the victim’s normal life. Currently, Chen has been administratively detained in accordance with the law.
It was learned from the Chongqing police that the victim companies in the above three cases were all Chongqing local car company Thalys Group Co., Ltd. In response to the online rumors and online violence cases involving Sailis, public security agencies across the country have investigated and dealt with 22 illegal perpetrators in accordance with the law, including 7 by Chongqing police and 15 by police from other places.
It was found that as early as September this year, illegal actors used AI tools to tamper with the manufacturing year "2026-07" on the nameplate of the Wenjie M6 vehicle to "2026-10", creating gimmicks of "prefabricated cars" and "travel cars", which were forwarded more than 20,000 times in a short period of time. Thalys subsequently issued a statement confirming that the nameplate information transmitted online was false information generated by P-pictures or AI modifications, and that it had retained evidence to report the case to the public security organs. It is understood that the public security organs have investigated and dealt with the case in accordance with the law.
