Several parties should be held accountable for addressing the spread of hoaxes, fake news, or disinformation on the internet.

This is evident in a research report by Ipsos Global in collaboration with UNESCO, titled *Survey on the Impact of Online Disinformation and Hate Speech*.

Of the 16 countries surveyed, 29% of respondents stated that governments and regulators should be most responsible for identifying and combating the spread of online disinformation.

Furthermore, 23% of respondents stated that responsibility lies with individual internet users, and 20% considered it the responsibility of the mass media.

Another 19% of respondents believed that the issue of disinformation spread should be handled by social media platforms, 5% by international organizations, and 4% by politicians.

This Ipsos and UNESCO survey involved 8,000 respondents aged 18 and above, spread across 16 countries (500 respondents per country). The survey locations were countries holding general elections in 2024, including Indonesia.

Data collection was conducted from August 22 to September 25, 2023, through online interviews.
