Fediverse vs Disinformation

427 readers

Pointing out, debunking, and spreading awareness about state- and company-sponsored astroturfing on Lemmy and elsewhere. This includes social media manipulation, propaganda, and disinformation campaigns, among others.

Propaganda and disinformation are a big problem on the internet, and the Fediverse is no exception.

What's the difference between misinformation and disinformation? The inadvertent spread of false information is misinformation. Disinformation is the intentional spread of falsehoods.

By equipping yourself with knowledge of current disinformation campaigns by state actors, corporations and their cheerleaders, you will be better able to identify, report and (hopefully) remove content matching known disinformation campaigns.

Pfft, like Tiffany couldn't make a pair of audio earrings, whatever the fuck that is supposed to be.

I mean the idea is simple, add wireless and audio output to earrings. We already have wireless earbuds, just cut down the fat on them. Less battery because it doesn't need to last 10 hours.

Didn't happen, but not that hard to make for our current companies.
