Look who I found in the Royal Albert Hall! Only the recently deposed @DamianCollins who got shafted off the DCMS committee. ‘It was that fucker Dominic Cummings, wasn’t it?’ I said. He neither confirmed or denied...
A timely paper from Harvard looking at how (dis)information is enhanced by cross platforming between eg between Twitter and You Tube.
Especially relevant as a response to C4 #ForSama documentary yesterday was immediately critical of White Hats despite not watching the video.

This paper analysis how anti-White Hat messaging was amplified through fake and paid for accounts, and driven my RT and Sputnik stories. It is enough if it creates doubt.
From that single response yesterday, they succeeded
