Thread by @auonsson

I have identified 28 bots targeting intel/mil/geopol/logistics/energy people. They reply, follow and quote and are most often very enthusiastic.

End game is unknown, but a guess is recruitment or information gathering. Maybe just influence.

Anyway, here they are, in network shape.

Some of the texts the excited intel-bots produce and post to other users.

Will eventually be released in a more sane format.

In this thread I started collecting the excited intel-bots. Lots of examples of what they post and how I differentiate them.

One of the intel bots in the network, trying to slide into the DM's of @stevehouf, a business researcher with @business and with several connections to academia.

Wonder if they continued in DM. Did you @stevehouf ?

This is much meta. An excited intel-bot warning @chrismartenson of PeakProsperity to not fall for phishing.

Another excited intel-bot, airing his worries about email privacy to @cyb_detective

Note the enthusiasm in the reply, typical for this breed of bots.

@NOELreports is popular target of the intel bot network, especially one of them is a keen poster to them.

In this case it is military commentary, mostly in strong favour of Ukraine.

”who knows, you might have a senior NATO-officer on the hook a few sentences later!”

This is just a first thread.

Much more analysis and anecdotes to come.

Since summarizing the accounts of the excited intel bots 2 days ago a 1/4 has closed. Most had been active since early August.

Ie, they might know I am on to them. Thats right, hide mfers.

The excited intel bots are trying to hide, but I found a way of finding them in hiding. And I have already found 100's more.

Some activity from last hours, excited intel bots appreciating some racist DOD merch and engaging analyis of both old maps and Tory's future.
