In the run-up to Japan's House of Representatives election, concerns are rising over the spread of misleading videos. These falsified videos, often disseminated through social media, are cause for concern with authorities and citizens alike, who fear the impact on the integrity of the democratic process. The Japan government, along with tech companies, are urged to mitigate the situation promptly.

Fake news and misinformation, especially concerning politics, has become a significant issue in Japan. As the distribution of misleading content can potentially influence public opinion and the outcomes of elections, Japanese citizens are increasingly worried. The country's principles of liberty, democracy, and truth are at stake here.

Similar to Japan, both the EU and the US face challenges regarding the spread of misinformation online, especially during sensitive periods like elections. Governments and digital platforms are implementing policies to quickly detect and remove such content while educating the public about misinformation. However, it remains a pervasive issue.
