On February 11, Wired.com, a monthly US technology magazine, published an article saying that a reporter from the agency searched the video social media platform Youtube and found that the platform recently involved the "Beijing Winter Olympics". Among the top five most viewed videos of promotional content, two videos were concocted by the "Falun Gong" media. At the same time, in order to increase the anti-China propaganda for the Beijing Winter Olympics, the "Falun Gong" anti-China forces also spent money on social media platforms to purchase promotion services.

The article pointed out that as long as sports fans watch the content related to the Beijing Winter Olympics on YouTube, they will receive such anti-China propaganda videos. After analyzing the YouTube search keywords, Wired found that after entering "Beijing", "Beijing 2022", "Olympics" or "2022 Olympics" in English, both friendly and anti-China propaganda videos will be displayed in the search results. At present, the top five videos have accumulated nearly 900,000 views.

Among the five videos, there are two anti-China videos and three friendly videos. Both of these anti-China videos were published by an account called "Beauty Daily" (The BL). Previously, the Facebook platform had determined that the account was linked to the "Falun Gong" cult. After "Falun Gong" was banned by the Chinese government in 1999, it has been committed to anti-China and anti-China, and competes with the Friendship videos posted by Western YouTube bloggers on social platforms for traffic.
