China's cybersecurity authority unveiled cases involving the fabrication and online spread of flood and disaster-related rumors on Monday. The cases included netizens fabricating misinformation using AI to garner attention, even extending to creating doctored official government advisories, China Central Television (CCTV) News reported.
A total of 15 typical cases were made public by the cyberspace authority under China's Ministry of Public Security, as part of a continued drive against illegal activities involving the creation and spread of disaster-related false information that disrupt social order.
Several of these rumors were crafted with AI tools. For instance, a 37-year-old male netizen based in Shenzhen, South China's Guangdong Province, doctored local official typhoon safety notices using AI, posting the manipulated versions on social media to garner views. The false posts drew widespread public discussion and impacted disaster relief operations.
A netizen surnamed Yang from Qingyuan, Guangdong Province, used AI to create false notices claiming local school closures, work and business shutdowns amid flooding, disseminating them via WeChat.
Two other netizens similarly utilized AI tools to generate and circulate similar instances of disinformation using Douyin, alleging that in one case a food-delivery courier was still required to complete 10 deliveries during the typhoon and was seen clinging to a utility pole as strong winds swept him off the ground.
All individuals implicated in these publicly disclosed cases have been subject to administrative penalties by local public security authorities in accordance with the law, CCTV reported
In addition, some netizens fabricated false information from scratch. For instance, one netizen invented a story claiming that a flash flood had killed over 100 people and that rescue efforts had failed, purely to gain online traction.
Others resorted to deceptive editing techniques, including one individual who clipped and spliced together footage downloaded from the internet that had no connection to the typhoon, falsely presenting it as "a person trapped on a tower crane during the typhoon" and posting it on social media.
These netizens have been issued administrative penalties by local public security authorities according to law.

。 OAKLAND, Calif. -- Unions representing 75,000 health care workers have reached a tentative agreement with industry giant Kaiser Permanente following a strike over wages and staffing levels, the parties announced Friday.Details of the agreement were not immediately released, but both sides said a full announcement was forthcoming.The three-day strike last week involving 75,000 workers in multiple states officially ended last Saturday and workers returned to their jobs in Kaiser’s hospitals and clinics that serve nearly 13 million Americans.“The frontline healthcare workers of the Coalition of Kaiser Permanente Unions are excited to have reached a tentative agreement with Kaiser Permanente as of this morning,” the coalition posted Friday morning. “We are thankful for the instrumental support of Acting US Labor Secretary Julie Su.”Kaiser Permanente, based in Oakland, California, confirmed the deal in a social media post.Bargaining sessions had been scheduled for this week, the unions said.The strike for three days in California — where most of Kaiser’s facilities are located — as well as in Colorado, Oregon and Washington was a last resort after Kaiser executives ignored the short-staffing crisis worsened by the coronavirus pandemic, union officials said. The coalition had given the company notice that another strike from Nov. 1 to Nov. 8 was possible and the Oct. 31 expiration of a contract covering the Seattle area would enable another 3,000 workers to join picket lines.Their goal was to bring the problems to the public’s consciousness for support, according to the Coalition of Kaiser Permanente Unions. Some 180 workers from facilities in Virginia and Washington, D.C., also picketed but only on Wednesday.The strikers include licensed vocational nurses, home health aides and ultrasound sonographers, as well as technicians in the radiology, X-ray, surgical, pharmacy and emergency departments.“No health care worker wants to go on strike,” Caroline Lucas, the coalition’s executive director, said Thursday. “I hope that the last few days have helped escalate this issue.”The company warned the work stoppage could cause delays in people getting appointments and scheduling non-urgent procedures.Unions representing Kaiser workers in August asked for a $25 hourly minimum wage, as well as increases of 7% each year in the first two years and 6.25% each year in the two years afterward.Kaiser, which turned a $2.1 billion profit for the quarter, said in a statement last week that it proposed minimum hourly wages between $21 and $23 depending on the location. The company said it also completed hiring 10,000 more people, adding to the 51,000 workers the hospital system has brought on board since 2022.Union members say understaffing is boosting the hospital system’s profits but hurting patients, and executives have been bargaining in bad faith during negotiations.The workers’ last contract was negotiated in 2019, before the pandemic.。
