Currently, such preventive activities are carried out by the company in Poland, the Czech Republic and Slovakia.
Google aims to combat disinformation about Ukrainian refugees in Germany. To this end, its subsidiary Jigsaw is extending a corresponding educational video campaign to the German-speaking segment of the Internet, wrote Der Spiegel on Monday, February 13th.
It is noted that preventive measures are currently being implemented in Poland, the Czech Republic and Slovakia. Educational videos are designed to reach the public before they fall prey to fake news. We are talking about possible reservations regarding Ukrainian refugees.
The campaign is based on research by psychologists from Cambridge and Bristol. British scientists developed the concept of preventing false information – “prebunking”. The idea is to let viewers know if the supposedly neutral information is just to get people to believe something that isn’t true.
It has been noted that one of the hallmarks of manipulative content is language that affects people emotionally. It is also questionable whether any groups will be held accountable for grievances they are not responsible for.
It was previously reported that German Interior Minister Nancy Feather plans to hold a summit on the refugee situation soon, given the tense situation.
