kallend 2,027 #1 Posted April 17, 2023 Apparently there are many more of them than previously estimated: SAN FRANCISCO — The Russian government has become far more successful at manipulating social media and search engine rankings than previously known, boosting lies about Ukraine’s military and the side effects of vaccines with hundreds of thousands of fake online accounts, according to documents recently leaked on the chat app Discord. The Russian operators of those accounts boast that they are detected by social networks only about 1 percent of the time, one document says. https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2023/04/16/russia-disinformation-discord-leaked-documents/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well Putin doesn't pay benefits promised to those injured or killed. So bikes are probably behind renos to his Black Sea palace. Which is valued at $1.4 billion USD. Putin's official salary is $124,500 USD in 2021. Of course Slim babbles about corruption in America. Which is the regular line on RTV, FOX Tucker Carlson, etc. In other propaganda news "Dominion v. Fox trial delayed for settlement talks, people familiar with the matter say" WSJ story Courtyard below. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
