Facebook said Tuesday it has identified a sprawling online propaganda effort: a pro-China campaign that had a presence on more than 50 websites.
The campaign “appears to be the largest known cross-platform covert influence operation in the world,” Meta said in a report. The researchers said the broadly coordinated postings of pro-China images, videos, comments and audio files were part of a yearslong operation that researchers had previously dubbed “Spamouflage.”
The findings underscore the potential for internet propaganda campaigns to attempt to exploit internet platforms to influence the U.S. election in 2024. Since 2016, Russia, Iran and to a lesser extent China have all launched covert online efforts to influence U.S. voters.
Not here though. Much like glorious leader Xi Jinping, Lemmy is free from corruption and beautiful like cherry blossom in the wind.
They “discovered”, lol. Do you mean that China stopped paying because Facebook isn’t where it’s at anymore?
Why is Lemmy not on this list?
Because lemmy shills are super obvious, nobody has to “discover” them
Yeah, motherfuckers over at lemmygrad are astroturfing HARD. It’s like the Russia/China circlejerk over there. The “greatest socialist experiment of all time”. Smfh.
The “greatest socialist experiment of all time”. Smfh.
Ten years later:
China wasn’t actually socialist, it was capitalist!
Don’t tell them that. They’ll call you an evil colonialist Democrat.
China #4
USSR maybe, Russia today is a capitalist hegemon. China is a mixed economy, and I find on the communist subs people often don’t realize it went through all kinds of neoliberal reforms. There’s both pro and anti China propaganda. Shen Yun for instance is pretty absurd anti China propaganda run by the Falun Gong.
Hey ya’ll, I know some of you are here on lemmy, and I let me just say…
Ya’ll doing alright? I’ve read recently about a lot of flooding in Hubei and Jingxi provinces, and despite how I may feel about the CCP and all, I want to make sure ya’ll are good.
Ah that sad. Guess, who didn’t see any of these propaganda? Yeap, its me because I dont use facebook.
Youve got to be a complete idiot to think you’ve never encountered propaganda just because you dont use facebook.
Looks like I hurt someone’s feeling just like those propaganda machines on Facebook lol. Do you hate your life ? You always feel like you’re the victim ? The society and people are against you ? Then its the CCP trying to infiltrate democracy by infiltrating Facebook because facebook is democracy.
