Interesting that by being able to admit he could have been influenced in his own views maliciously and getting “annoyed” with that, @josh_emerson became known as an ace amateur troll hunter.
I can relate. It’s part of the reason I threw the book at Cambridge Analytica.

Now let’s see the likes of @3r1nG @metabolizedjunk get recognized for their contributions of regional, linguistic, cultural expertise on trolls-n-bots info-ops in Latin America, emphasizing how Russia doesn’t hold a monopoly on tactics.

Criminal prosecution of Cambridge Analytica (SCL Elections Ltd) begins in UK tomorrow. It’s a crime to defy an order from the Information Commissioner’s Office. They refuse to disclose a complete US voter file despite a legal order from their regulator. ico.org.uk/media/action-w…
Meanwhile in the USA, our closest counterpart is the FTC and it is shutdown. Its Facebook Cambridge Analytica investigation is delayed. The FTC vs D-Link trial is now also delayed to the summer. #ShutdownStories
For the record, I won’t be attending the trial tomorrow, but I will share news as it comes in. I’m not the plaintiff/complainant here. This is the ICO vs SCL, the UK regulator simply upholding the Data Protection Act of 1998. Not sure if we’ll see Nix or Wheatland cross-examined.

Brexit movie premiering on UK TV now (HBO in the US later this month). Apparently, it’s a fictionalization first and foremost. #UncivilWar
Imagine casting Robert Mercer
HBO audiences in America would need an understanding of the British campaign finance law scandal that taints Brexit to spot it in this Easter Egg.

First President to engage in memetic warfare while holding a million federal employees and contractors hostage.
Trolling is Trump doctrine, leveraging Kremlin and DARPA methods.
The GoT wall meme is an intricately layered “in-group” cultural signifier. At the core it’s Trumpists vs everyone else, Us vs Them anti-immigration, those who get Game of Thrones reference vs those who don’t, those who spread meme to endorse it vs those who spread meme in dissent

1. In response to some aggressive challenges (#troll) on some of the statements I make in my recent @Ensia article, I thought it important to share the following points (thread)
2. Here’s the link to the article in question. ensia.com/voices/science/
3. And here’s a link to another essay I wrote a while ago that dives in deeper: conservationofchange.org/thefireweed/20…

Getting annoyed at how Zuckerberg's upcoming testimony seems to be turning media attention away from critical investigation and core issues in favor of opportunistic witch hunt.
All the core problems come from lack of any real regs or enforcement on Americans' personal data, complete lack of transparency in online political ads/targeting, and role of dark money. Rest of issues are derivative
Outrage fine, but clickbait without substance/context can hurt more than help right now. People should be horrified, but for the right reasons. Without sea change in policy, public data access, literacy, and platform accountability, it's all for naught
