Russian Interference with US elections will be more prevalent and more robust!

1. Russian operatives spent less than $200,000 on advertising on the FB platform — but that doesn't account for the organic content the operatives created and shared.
2. Not only were influence specialists within Russia's Internet Research Agency purchasing normal advertisements, they were authoring their own posts, memes and other content as they posed as American users.
3. They also reached out to politically active Americans, posing as like-minded supporters, and helped organize rallies and other events in the real world.
4. Facebook says the Internet Research Agency may have reached as many as 126 million people. Separately, Twitter announced that about 1.4 million people may have been in contact with IRA-controlled accounts.
5. The social media aspect of the interference was just one dimension. Cyberattackers also went after political victims in the United States — whose emails and other data were released publicly to embarrass them
and state elections officials and other targets. And there may have been other avenues of interference as well.
