Recently, there has been a circulating message on the internet about iFLYTEK's plan to lay off technical staff, which has attracted a lot of attention and discussion from netizens, damaging the company's reputation and image, and affecting its normal operation. Upon receiving the report, the police immediately launched an investigation. It was found that a netizen named Sha fabricated the false information that "iFLYTEK is filing a 30% layoff to the government", which sparked public attention and caused negative social effects. Currently, Sha has been administratively detained by the local police. The internet is not a lawless space, and information posted online must comply with legal requirements. For those who fabricate and spread false information on the internet, disrupting social order, the police will resolutely handle them according to the law; for those who cause serious harm and have severe consequences, legal responsibilities will be pursued. We urge netizens not to create rumors, not to believe rumors, and not to spread rumors. The cyber security department of the police is willing to work together with everyone to create a clean cyberspace.
