One way to anticipate hoaxes is to increase digital literacy skills, because usually before an election, various types of hoaxes are spread in the media, hoax makers intentionally disseminate and take advantage of this situation for certain interests. Therefore, people living in rural and urban areas need to be educated about the importance of digital literacy, this is to anticipate the wider spread of hoaxes. This community service is carried out in the form of outreach and training on digital literacy to anticipate hoaxes ahead of the 2023 election with the big six literacy approach. This socialization and training was carried out in Kebuyutan Village, which is one of the villages on the north coast of Banten Province.
