The popular urban emotional drama "Thirty Only" has a grounded plot and a strong sense of character. During this period, it has become a hot topic among netizens. The actors in the play are also on the hot search. However, what actor Zhang Yue didn't expect was that Lin Youyou, who played the "little three" in "Thirty Only", was attacked by the Internet.
There have always been many celebrities suffering from online violence. In addition to public figures, many ordinary people are also suffering unbearable pain in the "carnival" of online violence. On August 5, Deyang female doctor Anning was forced to commit suicide. This tragedy caused by online violence broke into people's vision again. While striking people's hearts, it also reminded people that the lethality of online violence should not be underestimated.
In the opinion of the interviewed experts, cyberspace should not be an outlet for anger and violence at any time. From barrage bombing to malicious editing, from private messaging to insults to human flesh searches, the endless online violence not only led to the spread of hostility in cyberspace, challenged the bottom line of the law, but also brought serious bad examples to the youth community. A clean and clear cyberspace requires meticulous governance efforts by relevant departments, as well as the joint efforts of online platforms and every netizen.
Online shop provides free chat
Actor encounters a personal attack
Recently, some netizens regarded Zhang Yue as Lin Youyou, and left messages on Zhang Yue’s Weibo, calling her green tea, shameless, and disgusting, and others said she looked like a "little san". For this reason, Zhang Yue had to turn off the Weibo comment function to avoid some unprovoked personal attacks.
Some media searched on the morning of August 8 and found that an online store launched a page "Accompanying Lin has a service, 10 yuan an hour, no curse, no money" page. From the chat screenshots posted by netizens, it can be seen that the "accompanied scolding service" provided by the online store is divided into "free chat mode" and "key storytelling" and other modes.
A buyer chose the "free chat mode." When she communicated with the store, she bluntly told her husband Lin had something, but she was told that "it is unfair to scold a girl like this, and she didn't mean it". In response to this, the customer service immediately launched the "free chat mode", saying, "How can ordinary girls lick the ice cream of a strange man?" and jokingly said, "During the epidemic prevention and control, you need to use public chopsticks. You actually eat his ice cream!"
Some buyers left a message after payment, saying: They have become an ally who scolded Lin Youyou.
However, by noon on August 8, a reporter from the Rule of Law Daily saw that this link with transaction records could no longer be found.
However, after a reporter from the Rule of Law Daily searched some e-commerce platforms for the keywords "Lin Youyou" and "curse", several other links appeared. Most of the content were "curse Lin Youyou on behalf of Lin Youyou, rich in types" and "accompany curse." Lin Youyou has services, enters the show, etc. The marked prices are mostly 1, 2, 10, or 15 yuan, but no transaction records have yet appeared. These "commodities" are mainly concentrated on a second-hand trading platform.
Among the above-mentioned "commodities", the highest sales volume is a scolding service with a price of 1 yuan to 3 yuan. According to the seller's description, the service provides three models. The first model is priced at 1 yuan, and the participation method is "I listen to you scolding", that is, the customer service listens to customers scolding Lin Youyou and interacts with buyers in the middle; the second model is priced 2 Yuan, the participation method is "Let's scold together", that is, the customer service and the purchaser scold Lin Youyou together; the third mode is priced at 3 yuan, and the participation method is "Listen to me scolding", that is, the buyer listens to the customer service scolding Lin Youyou . In addition, the service is specifically marked in the product details section, "Entertainment is the mainstay, civilized exchanges, do not rise to the actors themselves".
A reporter from the Rule of Law Daily purchased the "Listen to Me" mode with a price of 3 yuan. The customer service will inform the buyer in advance at the beginning, and the role of "Lin Youyou" can be complained in the next 5 minutes. Vent dissatisfaction. The customer service will promptly ask in the course of the communication whether to watch the full drama, whether it involves spoilers, etc.
In addition to e-commerce platforms, many netizens also abused and attacked Lin Youyou actor Zhang Yue's Weibo comments. However, the reporter of the Rule of Law Daily noticed that there are sensible audiences who respond or persuade the scolders.
In addition to cyber attacks on actors playing certain roles, cyber violence currently exists in other areas, such as online violence in fan circles and cyber violence in gaming circles.
In the gaming circle, reporters from the Rule of Law Daily searched Weibo with keywords such as “games”, “Internet violence” and “Internet violence” and found that there are problems of cyber violence against game anchors or game players in the game world, and Appears in different games. At present, there are serious problems of online violence in the game "Jian Wang 3" (ie "Jian Xia Qing Yuan Online Version 3"), most of which are verbal abuse.
Leaked information leads to suicide
Cyber violence is not shallow
It is worth noting that in addition to public figures, there are many ordinary people who are also suffering from cyber attacks.
On August 5, Chang Shan, Chang and Sun, who leaked the personal information of Dr. An in the "Deyang An Suicide Incident", were tried in the People's Court of Mianzhu City, Deyang, Sichuan. Three people including Chang Shan were charged with the crime of infringing on citizens' personal information, and the Mianzhu City Procuratorate filed a prosecution.
The victim in this case is An Ning, a female pediatrician of Deyang Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine. The conflict between An Ning, Qiao Ming and Chang Shan's son took place on August 20, 2018.
That night, An Ning had physical contact with Chang Shan's son while swimming in the pool of a hotel in Deyang. After a brief stay between the two parties, Anning wandered away. But Qiao Ming saw the boy spitting at her behind An Ning, so he pressed the boy's head into the water and gave him a slap.
After learning that his son had been beaten, Chang Shan and others rushed to the hotel and had a physical conflict with An Ning in the locker room. Chang Shan also called the police. After mediation by the Lushan Road Police Station, An Ning, Chang Shan and others went home.
But on the second day of the conflict, Chang Shan found Qiao Ming and An Ning’s work units and posted their names, home addresses, and work units on the Internet. After that, countless phone calls flooded into Qiao Ming's and peaceful life, and online insults and abuse were overwhelming.
Since then, Chang Shan and Chang Mou successively published content related to the pool conflicts on Weibo. Network screenshots show that Chang Mou also posted Anning and Qiao Ming's personal information in a WeChat group of about 500 people. In the discussion on this matter on platforms such as Weibo, Chang Shan and Sun have repeatedly mentioned their units and positions in reposts and comments.
On August 25, Anning swallowed about 500 tablets of chlorpheniramine and died.
According to people familiar with the matter, the procuratorial agency believes that Chang Shan's behavior has caused the fermentation of public opinion and the proliferation of victim information, which has caused widespread negative public opinion. Anning and his family were under tremendous pressure. Anning eventually became overwhelmed and had a mental breakdown and committed suicide by taking medicine.
A reporter from the Rule of Law Daily noted that the two main focuses of public attention are whether the person who initially transmitted the video to the media constituted a crime? What are the consequences of human death caused by human flesh search?
Qiao Ming’s attorney, Zhao Qitai, believes that the other party’s personal information was publicized by the other party and was maliciously degraded by the public, which ultimately led to the suicide of the party. The other party’s actions constituted a crime.
With reference to the verdict of the “First Human Flesh Search Case” in China in 2007, Liu Deliang, a professor at Beijing Normal University Law School, believes that the interests of the parties were harmed and not directly caused by the disclosure of personal information. Follow-up information abuse should be investigated, and cyber violence should be precisely cracked down. The person who is involved will be held accountable for legal responsibility.
Renovation of cyber violence
Behind the business power
According to Zheng Ning, director of the Law Department of the School of Cultural Industry Management of Communication University of China, relying on new media platforms and communication methods, new types of cyber violence have evolved from the narrow language violence in the past to full-scale attacks such as text, pictures, and videos. It's getting worse.
"In the past, cyber violence mostly happened accidentally, mostly in the social field. However, in recent years, cyber violence has been increasingly used in the field of commercial competition, showing a tendency to be organized, planned, and have an industrial chain. "Zheng Ning said.
According to Zheng Ning, cyber violence presents the following characteristics: profit-oriented, cyber violence has become a new means of unfair competition; professionalization, organization, clear division of labor, and high efficiency; even sitting, stigma rising from individuals to groups.
At the same time, Zheng Ning proposed such a phenomenon-the robotic navy already exists. With the further development of artificial intelligence, this new technology may actively generate data, language, etc., and cause cyber violence.
"The existence of the robot navy has severely eroded the normal public opinion ecology of social media. In the current various types of social media, various organizations, companies, and celebrities may become the first party of the consumer robot navy. Perform stealth manipulation." Zheng Ning said.
Zheng Ning mentioned that such social media manipulations are often carried out on multiple social media platforms and follow different social media platform interaction methods. In a short period of time, a large number of related content such as likes, reposts, and comments are released to create various This kind of "false heat" and "false consensus" mislead ordinary netizens. Due to the large scale, multiple channels, and fast speed, ordinary netizens cannot identify false data, and often cannot distinguish the comments generated by the robot navy. They are susceptible to the influence of the same type and huge number of comments, resulting in social psychology. Said the "waterfall effect".
Wang Sixin, deputy dean of the Institute of Community with a Shared Future for Humanity at Communication University of China, believes that hype can sometimes easily bring huge traffic and attention and obtain a relatively stable means of commercial realization. Therefore, behind some cyber violence, there are still commercial forces to promote and realize the purpose of commercial appeals. Without commercial power, there will be no large and stable scale of cyber violence.
