State-Sponsored Trolling

NYTimes has published a good article about state-sponsored trolling. If you think it will never have any impact on your life, think again. And then read about the Columbia Chemical plant in St. Mary Parish, Louisiana.

At least, we are finally awakening to the reasons behind the trolling campaign:

Russia’s information war might be thought of as the biggest trolling operation in history, and its target is nothing less than the utility of the Internet as a democratic space.

Read, the article, get informed, and make sure that the trolls don’t start to control you.

One thought on “State-Sponsored Trolling

  1. When corporations do it, that’s called “communications” and “public relations”.

    I’m sure someone’s on retainer to figure out how to whitewash doing it when the actor involved is a state’s propaganda arm …

    Mostly I’m interested in seeing what new words and phrases they come up with for this new iteration of an old game.
