Introduction
In today’s digital age, the landscape of information dissemination has been
dramatically altered by the rapid advancement of technology, including
artificial intelligence (AI). The quote by Thomas Rid, "We live in an age of
subterfuge. Spy agencies pour vast resources into hacking, leaking, and
forging data, often with the goal of weakening the very foundation of liberal
democracy: trust in facts," aptly captures the complex and often perilous
