- azinman2 7y agoAnd I was thinking about the retirement account ;)
- rvz 7y agoWhy not just have the acronym in full: 'Russian Internet Research Agency' to reduce ambiguity? Since us British folk know the historical associations of both RIRA and The IRA. But yes, at first the title did look like that the IRA somehow expanded to Ghana. Which would be completely bizarre of them.
- celticninja 7y agoRIRA can also refer to Real IRA, but is much less likely to lead to confusion with the actual IRA.
- atRonan 7y agoHaha I was thinking the exact same!
- de_Selby 7y agoAnd then when it mentioned using social media for political influence I was thinking a-ha! Sinn Fein bots!
