The harm caused by misleading information online

It is true that the internet has brought us great

convenience and efficiency, however, as the data grows at an

exponential rate, the severity of misleading information

arises.

Deceptive news or tips travel fast online, and worse

still, they may shadow our routine life or even hinder the

progress of our society. Lack of enough consideration, we are

easily misled by false information which always appears in

bulk on the webpage. Some will alter their plans to deal with

the so-called disaster but only affect their normal life; a

few may even go further to violate social security and

economic trend. Moreover, if the misleading news isn’t

corrected soon, there may be a trust crisis between

individuals and the government. For example, the nuclear

leakage in Japan in 2020 has caused great panic in Eastern

China, where thousands of people went out to rob salt after

the rumor that salt can prevent radiation, and ended in a

turbulence in the domestic market. To prevent misleading information spreading, government

should set up laws to regulate online news while individuals

need to judge independently. Only when they work in hand will

the harm of false information be diminished to the end.
