UK cut 90,835 bot replies from vape consultation, leaving 80% backing curbs

برطانیہ نے ویپ مشاورت سے 90,835 بوٹ جوابات نکال دیے، 80 فیصد نے پابندیوں کی حمایت کی

ब्रिटेन ने वेप परामर्श से 90,835 बॉट जवाब हटाए, 80% ने पाबंदियों का समर्थन किया

UK cut 90,835 bot replies from vape consultation, leaving 80% backing curbs

Key points

اہم نکات

मुख्य बातें

  • British officials removed 90,835 automated responses from a 2023 government consultation on tobacco and vaping rules, a study in the journal Tobacco Control has found.
  • The flagged replies made up more than three-quarters of the 118,756 responses received, and almost all of them opposed limits on disposable vape sales.
  • Once they were excluded, 79.6% of genuine respondents supported restrictions on disposable vape sales.
  • برطانیہ کے حکام نے تمباکو اور ویپ کے قواعد پر 2023 کی حکومتی مشاورت سے 90,835 خودکار جوابات نکال دیے ہیں، یہ بات جریدے ٹوبیکو کنٹرول میں شائع ہونے والی ایک تحقیق میں سامنے آئی ہے۔ یہ جوابات موصول ہونے والے 118,756 جوابات میں سے تین چوتھائی سے زیادہ تھے، اور ان میں سے تقریباً سبھی نے ڈسپوزیبل ویپ کی فروخت پر پابندیوں کی مخالفت کی تھی۔ ان کے نکالے جانے کے بعد حقیقی جواب دہندگان میں سے 79.6 فیصد نے ڈسپوزیبل ویپ کی فروخت پر پابندیوں کی حمایت کی۔ محققین نے اسے عوامی صحت کی باضابطہ مشاورت میں بڑے پیمانے پر خودکار مداخلت کا پہلا دستاویزی واقعہ قرار دیا، لیکن یہ ثابت نہیں ہوا کہ بوٹس کس نے چلائے۔
  • ब्रिटिश अधिकारियों ने तंबाकू और वेप नियमों पर 2023 के सरकारी परामर्श से 90,835 स्वचालित जवाब हटा दिए हैं, यह बात टोबैको कंट्रोल पत्रिका में प्रकाशित एक अध्ययन में सामने आई है। ये जवाब प्राप्त हुए 118,756 जवाबों में से तीन-चौथाई से अधिक थे, और इनमें से लगभग सभी ने डिस्पोज़ेबल वेप की बिक्री पर पाबंदियों का विरोध किया था। इन्हें हटाने के बाद असली उत्तरदाताओं में से 79.6% ने डिस्पोज़ेबल वेप की बिक्री पर पाबंदियों का समर्थन किया। शोधकर्ताओं ने इसे औपचारिक सार्वजनिक स्वास्थ्य परामर्श में बड़े पैमाने पर स्वचालित हस्तक्षेप का पहला दस्तावेज़ी मामला बताया, लेकिन यह स्थापित नहीं हुआ कि बॉट किसने चलाए।

The flagged replies made up more than three-quarters of the 118,756 responses received, and almost all of them opposed limits on disposable vape sales. Once they were excluded, 79.6% of genuine respondents supported restrictions on disposable vape sales. Researchers called it the first documented case of large-scale automated interference in a formal public health consultation, but did not establish who ran the bots.
