矢板明夫為印太戰略智庫執行長,經常就兩岸及國際議題發表評論。近年來,部分外國網紅在台拍攝影片時發表負面評論,引發爭議,部分被指故意製造爭議以提升點閱率。
印太戰略智庫執行長矢板明夫指出,近日1名長期居住台灣的日本YouTuber在高雄六合夜市拍攝影片,因當場吐出購買的食物、大喊「難吃」,甚至稱「討厭台灣」,引發爭議。事後該名YouTuber再發布影片回應,縮圖寫著「致一部分民度低落的台灣人」,矢板明夫認為挑釁意味十分明顯。
矢板明夫在臉書粉專「矢板明夫俱樂部」發布貼文稱,首先,任何人都有權利評論一道菜是否好吃,但影片中攤位清楚可辨,攤商臉部也未打馬賽克;YouTuber又在擁有十幾萬人追蹤的頻道上,當場吐出食物並批評難吃,可能直接影響攤商生意。他認為,若商家認為名譽、肖像或營業權益受到侵害,可以保存證據並尋求法律救濟。

矢板明夫接著指出,第二,該名YouTuber長期居住台灣,透過拍攝、介紹台灣累積流量,甚至在台灣開店做生意,台灣提供其生活及賺錢的舞台。他表示,對方當然擁有批評台灣的自由,但「批評和羞辱是兩回事」,受到許多台灣人友善對待,卻以日文向日本觀眾不斷放大台灣的缺點,他認為這種做法「非常不厚道」。
矢板明夫表示,第三,日本將這類網紅稱為「迷惑系YouTuber」,透過故意做出令人討厭或氣憤的事情製造「炎上」,因為遭到越多人批評,點閱率可能越高,最終將他人的憤怒轉化為自己的收入。他認為,面對這類情況,與其在網路上與對方爭吵,不如由受害者蒐集證據,「該提告就提告,該求償就求償」,讓以製造傷害換取流量的人付出代價。
矢板明夫最後提醒,相關事件只是1名日本網紅的個人行為,絕不能代表日本人,這次也有許多日本網友批評該名YouTuber。
他強調,可以批評、譴責該名YouTuber,甚至依法追究其責任,但不應因此演變成台灣人與日本人相互攻擊,「台日之間多年累積的互信和友情,不能被一個靠挑釁賺流量的網紅破壞」。

Chinese President Xi Jinping is expected to visit Washington from September 23 to 25 to meet with U.S. President Trump. The two sides are expected to extend the one-year trade war truce agreement reached last year, but it may be difficult to see substantial results on major differences such as rare earths, AI regulation, technology exports, Taiwan arms sales and Iran issues. Experts believe that this meeting is more about managing a deadlock than seeking peace. The two sides have their own plans: Trump seeks orders for rare earths, agricultural products, and results to show off. White House officials hope to retain space for pressure on China on advanced technology, supply chains, and Taiwan issues. Xi Jinping hopes for tariff exemptions, technology access, and reduction of U.S. support for Taiwan, while buying time to reduce dependence on the United States. In the field of AI, leaders from both sides will meet with U.S. technology industry bosses, but regulatory consensus is difficult to reach due to mutual suspicion and competitive mentality, although both sides acknowledge the importance of discussing AI safety. In addition, it is difficult to break through the Iran-Taiwan issue. Beijing insists on opposing US arms sales to Taiwan and maintains cooperation through its influence on Iran, while Washington is worried that Beijing will use leverage to put pressure on Tehran. Overall, the summit may only maintain the status quo without any major breakthroughs.
