Takuya Matsunaga, who lost his wife and daughter in a runaway accident in Ikebukuro, Tokyo, and Kyoko Kimura, who lost his daughter who was a professional wrestler, talked about the injuries on SNS and appealed for the creation of a mechanism to prevent repeated damage. ..
Three years ago, Matsunaga lost his wife, Mana (31 at the time) and her eldest daughter, Riko (3 at the time), when they were hit by an elderly driver's car.
Kimura committed suicide two years ago while his daughter, Hana (22 at the time), who was appearing on a TV program, was injured on social media.
This dialogue was held last month when Mr. Matsunaga contacted Mr. Kimura after he wrote an insult to Mr. Matsunaga's post on SNS.
Mr. Matsunaga said, "I experienced it and realized that it was such a painful thing. Some people may die. Never wake up."
Mr. Kimura said, "Educational trauma can be done with just one finger, and it is difficult to create a sense of harm, but many victims have a broken heart and have a lifelong trauma. I want to fill that unreasonable balance with the law. I want you to know that SNS is not a scary thing, but a problem for the user. "
There are moves to stricter punishment for false accusation on the Internet such as SNS, and efforts are underway such as ordinances being established in various places to support victims.
