Gouvernement using social networks to fight or do foreign influence campaign is not exactly the same thing. This is covert propaganda, or the government targeting its own citizen, in a domestic influence campaign. Much more problematic in its concept.
- like_any_other 1mo ago"Ex" FBI and CIA officials in key social media posts, and running "harmful content" teams, is covert, and targets US's own citizens, so yes, it is exactly the same thing. That's not even all of it, e.g.: The Pentagon and CIA Have Shaped Thousands of Hollywood Movies into Super Effective Propaganda - https://worldbeyondwar.org/the-pentagon-and-cia-have-shaped-thousands-of-hollywood-movies-into-super-effective-propaganda/ https://worldbeyondwar.org/the-pentagon-and-cia-have-shaped-... Or recruiting "former" intelligence officials to debunk and censor a true story: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunter_Biden_laptop_controversy#Intelligence_officials https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunter_Biden_laptop_controvers... And people outside the USA, such as myself, don't find it so easy to dismiss foreign influence campaigns, e.g.: US-Funded NGOs and Former Officials Shaped The UK’s Online Safety Act - https://foundationforfreedomonline.com/us-governnent-cutouts-influenced-online-safety-act/ https://foundationforfreedomonline.com/us-governnent-cutouts...
