Política · German candidate · Archivo180 publicaciones, un candidato local: cómo una presunta campaña rusa señaló a Eric StehrEscrito 7 de septiembre de 2026 a las 21:22 UTCVerTranscripción0:00A candidate in the eastern German state0:01of Saxony Anhalt has taken a criminal0:03complaint to prosecutors after four0:05videos circulated [music] online0:06accusing him of murder, killing a webcam0:08model, organizing underground LGBTQ sex0:11parties, and rigging university grades.0:13The videos were targeted exclusively0:15[music]0:15at Eric, a student and left party0:17candidate. Deutsche Welle's head of0:19fact-checking, Joana Weber, says DW0:22identified the four videos as0:23fabrications.0:25Each allegation was designed to sever0:27Eric from a different constituency.0:29Police and university officials,0:30alongside DW's own investigation,0:32[music] found no evidence to support any0:34of the claims.0:36The criminal complaint now places these0:37synthetic media attacks before German0:40prosecutors, asking whether existing0:42defamation,0:43>> [music]0:43>> libel, and harassment statutes apply to0:45AI-generated content aimed at destroying0:48a political candidate. The creators of0:50the videos have not been identified.0:52Eric [music] has now filed a criminal0:53complaint, but the unknown creators0:55remain at large. For German electoral0:58authorities, the timing [music] is0:59critical because Saxony-Anhalt holds its1:01state election this year. If the1:02creators are not [music] identified1:04before election day, the complaint1:06process will have demonstrated its1:07investigative reach or its limits while1:10votes are being cast. What remains1:11unresolved is whether a criminal [music]1:13complaint filed by a candidate known1:15only by a first name can produce an1:16indictment, a takedown, or a deterrent1:18before the election.1:19>> [music]1:20>> If it cannot, the four videos, however1:21false, will have achieved part of what1:23they set out to do.Leer el artículoCronología de la historiaHeyDexEl vídeo breve ↗
