Regarding slander and nuisance behavior on social media and the internet
2024.06.16
Thank you very much for your continued warm support for EBiDAN artists.
Recently, we have noticed many malicious posts targeting our artists on various social media platforms (X, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, etc.) and the internet.
[Main examples of problematic posts]
・Slander that damages the artist's image
- Posting speculation, unsubstantiated facts, or false information about artists
・Impersonating an artist
- Publishing of private photographs of artists
Our company has always respected the freedom of expression of our supporters.
However, we cannot overlook the repeated increase in the above-mentioned acts and take the situation seriously.
Therefore, in the future, we intend to take strict measures, including legal action, in response to such excessive, illegal, and unjust nuisance behavior, after consulting with our legal counsel, Shibuya Police Station, and other relevant agencies.
In addition, we will block or freeze targeted accounts, request disclosure of sender information, and hold those responsible accountable.
Our artists deliver entertainment to everyone through their creative activities.
Some people say that artists cannot avoid being subject to slander once they are in the public eye, but artists are human beings just like everyone else.
It is also true that heartless acts cause people to be hurt, suffer mental distress, and have serious physical and mental effects.
We have a duty to protect the daily lives, health, and futures of our artists, their families, related parties, and our staff.
For this reason, we intend to take decisive action against such behavior using all available means.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in creating an environment where artists and fans can continue to work with peace of mind.
