very interesting study. that the most effective mitigation strategy is combined tactics (account banning, algorithmic suppression, direct warning, account labelling) is analogous for effective biological virus mitigation strategy (vaccine + social distancing + masking + quarantine) supports the case that information spreads throughout networks in much the same way as biological viruses do. the implication is that to be protected from the deliberate release of weaponised 'informational viruses' from hostile actors, concerned governments must at least monitor who gets to say what, and if need be, suppress freedom of speech of those identified as malefactors
