Concretely it means that they had data scientists who monitored networks of coordinated inauthentic behavior that were being used to stoke mass interpersonal violence in regions undergoing political turmoil. A recent example is in Tigray but it's been happening nonstop all over the world. Wherever there's social tension, some government or organization is going to be interested in stoking it for their gain.
- viknod 4y agoSearched but couldn't find anything that seemed contextually relevant, what is mass interpersonal violence? Seems like it must be a code word for something I'm not familiar with. All references I see for interpersonal violence seem to be synonymous with domestic violence.
- blurbleblurble 4y agoBasically I'm referring to weaponized mob violence, the kinds of things that have occurred in Ethiopia or Myanmar recently but also elsewhere.
