Huh, I have no problem believing Russia, say, bought ads of various sorts to try to sway the election, and I'm a little surprised at the skepticism here that it happened. That said, I don't totally understand what the problem is. It's good to know they did, but I wish the outcome were more along the lines of a cultural meme spreading that anyone could buy ads so be considerate about what you believe online. Instead I fear we're going down the road of this being some grave offence, and "how could the tech giants have allowed this?!", and Congressional hearings and yet more laws about what you can do online.
