In the past two years, with the rise of live streaming, legal cases involving Internet celebrities have also appeared frequently.
For example, the Internet celebrity "Xiao Huijun" terminated the contract with the company in order to reduce the cost, slandered the boss for sexual harassment, and "Qiao Lezi couple" and others added fuel to the fire, misleading fans and netizens, and almost causing the company's boss to be ruined.
In order to slander his ex-wife, an Internet celebrity in Jingmen posted remarks such as "She is a big liar, and she deceived me with both money and money" on the Internet, misleading fans to post inappropriate remarks, which caused great distress to his ex-wife, and she could not return to normal life for a long time.
Recently, the lawsuit between Internet celebrity Huang * Yao (screen name "Yes Shu Yao") and Laifen Technology Company has once again attracted attention, because of dissatisfaction with the previous cooperation, Huang * Yao spread false remarks on multiple social platforms, causing negative impact, and the court earlier ruled that Huang Shuyao needed to publish an apology video on the online platform, delete negative remarks, and compensate Laifen Technology Company for 330,000 yuan in losses.
However, she continued to post videos after the second-instance verdict came into effect, trying to reverse the outcome of the legal trial.
Recently, Huang *yao has successively posted relevant content on social media platforms such as Douyin and Xiaohongshu, arguing that her remarks are not defamatory, only involving verbal insults, but according to the court judgment, the main reason why Huang Shuyao lost the lawsuit was that she committed obvious defamatory acts, not just insults, and the second instance rejected all of Huang *yao's counterclaims.
In the video, Huang *Yao also said that if all the compensation money is used for public welfare, it will help more people. Netizens think that she is secretly changing the concept and confusing the public, public welfare should not become a shield for violating the law, the court's judgment should be respected, the use of the compensation amount should be decided by the injured party, and the injured party has no position to make a claim.
In the era of social media, the speed of information dissemination is unimaginable before, and Huang *Yao has a huge fan base and large social influence on major social media platforms, so she should be more cautious in her words and deeds, and should not use emotional remarks to guide the public's emotional tendencies.
Because in the case of real information being concealed or exaggerated, this kind of emotional information is often one-sided, and in the era of information overload, people are easily swayed by emotional remarks, forming prejudices and misunderstandings.
In the face of Internet celebrity legal cases, we need to keep our eyes open, keep rational thinking, and avoid being incited emotionally.
In today's faster and faster information dissemination, the power of speech is huge, but speech is also accompanied by responsibility and legal constraints.
While influencers have a lot of attention, they should be aware that their words and actions can have a profound impact on society.
Only by being cautious in words and deeds and rational in protecting rights can we go longer.
Once the public opinion is led to deviation, the behavior of fans is uncontrollable by Internet celebrities, and when their own bloggers encounter turmoil, fans should also remain rational, prudently evaluate the information, avoid spreading news without conclusive evidence, and should not take the initiative to guide the opposition and take sides, subject to the court's judgment.
Respect the law, respect the facts, think rationally, everyone should be like that.
