There's no punishment for sharing misinformation anywhere.......!?
There's no punishment for sharing mis-information in the US?
he does blue lives matter, his church is homophobic...he's not that far from her.
This is a question that's like... four years too late, if not much more lmao
Anyways no, not really.
Nope. Not outside of threats and immediate danger (the proverbial shouting FIRE! in a crowded threater)
Spreading misinformation regarding the epidemic is punishable by imprisonment for up to three years, a fine of up to NT$3 million (about US$100,000), or both. (Art. 14.)
One-fourth of coronavirus misinformation in Taiwan comes from Chinese trolls
The Bureau stated that Chinese netizens have been smearing Taiwan's official notices on disease control as fake news. The pattern involves posting screenshots of Taiwanese government announcements that have been edited to include some simplified Chinese characters and then dismissing the information as unreliable. Some accounts pretended to have insider stories about dead bodies buried inside the Taipei Dome.
The smear campaigns have had little impact, a CIB investigator said, as Taiwanese netizens were quick to point out the discrepancies.
A non-profit organization, Taiwan FactCheck Center, has been working with social media platforms to verify information as well as to educate the public on spotting and reporting fake news.

yes
If this spirals into a media wildfire that they can't contain, then Disney will take action.
''questionable follows'' is somewhat of a reductive way to characterize it. also, it isn't about the religion itself, but his church, lol.He also put out pro-BLM posts on Instagram.
The Pratt hate, for the most part, comes from his religion and some questionable follows on Twitter.
That is very different than tweeting out hateful and harmful stuff yourself, which is what Wright has done.
Yeah Disney will go the way the wind blows on this for sure.If this spirals into a media wildfire that they can't contain, then Disney will take action.
He also fucking follows Madison Fucking Cawthron.questionable follows is somewhat of a reductive way to characterize it. also, it isn't about the religion itself, but his church, lol.
like, the difference between both of them is that letitia is being dumb enough to say it aloud.

Feige and Iger are making some late night calls right now.
he spouts blue lives matter, his church is homophobic...he's not that far from her.
Yeah, I don't get why they'd need any multiverse stuff when there's a clear path of succession for M'Baku shown in the first film. If that's who you want to be the black panther, it's easy as shit.Could just have our M'Baku take over and not worry about the implications of pulling a character from another universe to replace T'Challa.

Looking online, it does seem that US does have misinformation law
18 U.S. Code § 1038 - False information and hoaxes
www.law.cornell.edu
We do have freedom of speech in our constitution in Taiwan too, and government is mainly focus on slander and libel, cross-Strait relations, and national security.
As I understand it, freedom of speech is not freedom from consequence.
And under special power granted ealier due to China's troll farm in spreading misinformation on COVID-19

This is what happens when evangelicals send their damn missionaries all over the globe and infect others.
you're moving the goalposts. All people are saying here is: if they don't remove someone as hateful as pratt, nothing will happen. i disputed saying she's worse than him. both are bad, and her being vocal about it, compared to pratt, is what could possibly be he differentiator.It's not. That's how Disney and any corporation would look at it. No one is getting fired for following someone on Twitter.
Which is not the same thing as actually tweeting out anti-vax videos with transphobic moments. It's silly to say, "Well, Pratt didn't get fired so she won't." That shows a misunderstanding of how the world actually works.
i mean, he all but did use the hashtag,I don't think he's ever mentioned blue lives matter. He supports police foundations mainly due to his brother being a police officer, but I've never seen that phrase attributed to him. There are other valid concerns (like his relationship with the church.). But he's never made questionable statements like the way Wright is doing.
The thing about these Satanist conspiracy theories is that if you were trying to peddle Satanism under the radar to people via vaccines and science...why would you straight up put Lucifer into the name like that? It's like being in on Qanon because the FBI director's name is Christopher Deepstate.
She's on that big religious energy thanks to her upbringing. As a first generation American I'm glad I shook off my parents reductive religious views otherwise I'd be a science denying homophobe/transphobe.
Her posts are not surprising at all.
I decided to look into it more, but it basically seems like social media continues to be a large grey area and anything we prosecute there would likely end up in the Supreme Court. In short (lawyers, correct me), I just don't think there's precedent for any kind of punishment.
And how the SC would judge it seems different depending on whether they believe she intended to cause harm or not, among other things.
Taiwan takes a whole-of-society approach to fighting disinformation. Its civic technology community works with social media companies, like the island's popular messaging service Line, to identify, debunk, and downrank viral conspiracy theories on social media platforms.
When someone comes across a news story that sounds fishy, they can send it to the popular chatbot Cofacts, where teams of volunteers then rapidly research the claim to determine its validity.
The independent Taiwan FactCheck Center maintains an online repository of disproven conspiracy theories.
Taiwan also shows that the best defense comes from a solid offense. Rather than simply play whack-a-mole by disproving every new fake fact, the government creates new conversations by organizing public debates about issues via the citizen-run vTaiwan platform.
Instead of promoting hysteria to sell more ads, vTaiwan's algorithms highlight where there is consensus in a debate and minimize the voices at the most extreme ends.
Media literacy trucks go to rural areas to educate people how to spot fake news. And with China keen to cause divides in Taiwan, local groups that knowingly receive foreign money to spread disinformation about elections can face fines, and their leaders can go to jail.
Building on a global trend of hiring technologists to drive government innovation, Tsai appointed a software engineer, Audrey Tang, to increase citizenengagement in government decision-making in 2016.
While Tang has led initiatives to roll out new technologies that increase transparency and combat disinformation, she has also helped Taiwan distinguish itself by marrying those investments with community-level engagement efforts, such as enlisting thousands of pharmacists to help dispel rumors about COVID-19.
given the period he said that, alongside his follows, i'm not inclined to give him the benefit of the doubt.This isn't bad. Honestly, it's a pretty normal view of how people see cops.
It's not equivalent to saying Blue Lives Matter. As an example, you wouldn't be as concerned about someone saying "we love our troops" or whatever despite what we do in other countries.
