It reminds me of "the great hack". Disinformation is so disturbing.
- creato 7y agoI don't think this is a deliberate disinformation problem, it's simply that good information and proper investigations take time. In the meantime, people speculating (primarily on social media) dominates and those opinions become indistinguishable from good information to most people, if they ever even see the definitive results at all. This dynamic has affected almost every thing I pay attention to on the internet. It's depressing.
- cududa 7y agoIf you wanna go another layer on “the great hack” the fun bit is Brittney Kaiser is full of crap. She ran election interference for the last Mexican presidential election. That just finally leaked this week in The Guardian If she was actually remorseful for her roll in Cambridge Analytica, she would’ve admitted that from the start, instead of doing this whole reputation PR/ The Great Hack thing to make herself still hireable.
