South Korea's president Lee just called spreading fake news "tantamount to rebellion." He created a cyber analysis team. President Lee Jae-myung made the declaration at a cabinet meeting on April 6. His justification: South Korea is in a "wartime situation" due to the Middle East conflict. His logic: fake news is a tactic enemies use to sow confusion. Therefore, spreading it is an act of sedition. He didn't stop at rhetoric: - A new cyber analysis team will screen for misinformation before complaints are filed. - Spreaders will be tracked and face maximum penalties. - The Finance Ministry filed a police complaint against people circulating rumors about forced dollar sales and bank exchange limits. - The Ministry of Trade filed complaints against YouTubers who claimed 900,000 barrels of oil were diverted to North Korea from Ulsan A president who labels misinformation "rebellion" is now building surveillance infrastructure and pushing a constitutional rewrite. All at once. The tools being built now will outlast the crisis that justified them. Source: chosun.com/politics/blue_โฆ
