MASSIVE ANTI-RUSSIAN ‘BOT ARMY’ EXPOSED BY AUSTRALIAN RESEARCHERS

According to DeclassifiedAUS.org,

“An Australian university has unearthed millions of Tweets by fake ‘bot’ accounts pushing disinformation on the Ukraine war. 

A team of researchers at the University of Adelaide have found that as many as 80 percent of tweets about the 2022 Russia-Ukraine invasion in its early weeks were part of a covert propaganda campaign originating from automated fake ‘bot’ accounts. 

In fact, it was like someone had flicked a switch, when at the start of the war on 24 February, pro-Ukraine bot activity suddenly burst into life. In that first day of the war the #IStandWithUkraine hashtag was used in as many as 38,000 tweets each hour, rising to 50,000 tweets an hour by day three of the war.”

And it’s interesting to hear their perspective on the ‘pro Russia’ bot side of it also. 

Below is a picture from one of the busts done on a ‘pro Russia’ bot farm, operating out of an apartment. 

10,000 SIM cards and 100,000 bot accounts! 

Wow! 

Imagine how many accounts the ‘pro Ukraine’ bot farms are running. 

We don’t live in the world we think we do.
