Inside Edition - Organized Trolls Lead in Meghan Markle Online Hate

We manually reviewed thousands of tweets, and every account in that report is breaking Twitter's rules. For example, the duchofnarsussex was previously suspended and uses multiple accounts to harass people. She was also actively recruiting people to join her group.
Oh, and by the way... more is coming. Stay tuned...

Earlier this month, I announced Bot Sentinel would look into what appeared to be a coordinated hate campaign targeting Meghan and Harry, Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
On Tuesday, we released a report outlining a coordinated hate campaign targeting Meghan and Harry, and we listed the accounts behind the campaign.

You can review the report here:

Shortly after announcing our investigation into the suspicious activity, the hate accounts named in the report attacked my deceased mother, shared screenshots of fake tweets from my “daughter,” published my private information, and recently tweeted confidential documents.

This is from Twitter: "At this time, there's no evidence of widespread coordination, the use of multiple accounts by single people..."

Oh? Here are two accounts operated by the same person used to attack Meghan and Harry. Both are still active.

The woman who operates the duchofnarsussex and OSS_SOE_21 accounts was previously suspended by Twitter. We also suspect she operates a 3rd account (Queen_Leinster) used to attack Meghan and Harry, and amplify the duchofnarsussex account. ImageImageImage
Here is an account admitting she opened a new account specifically to target Meghan and Harry, but she claims she has been on Twitter since 2012.

So how can Twitter claim "no use of multiple accounts by single people" when we have proof contradicting their statement. Image

It took us 150 hours to analyze and review the tweets, retweets, mentions, and friend/follower connections outlined in the report. We painstakingly examined everything because we knew other researchers and members of the media would scrutinize our work.
washingtonpost.com/technology/202…
We used precise language in the report, and we released the list of accounts so there would be no doubt of our findings. For example, a woman Twitter previously suspended operates the duchofnarsussex and OSS_SOE_21 accounts, and we suspect the Queen_Leinster account as well.
Immediately after we published the report, the owners of Twelve accounts on the list either deactivated their accounts or protected their tweets. The accounts in question used the same avoidance tactics outlined in our report.

True story: One of the people who have been harassing me for investigating hate accounts, is a middle-aged White woman using a 10-year-old version of Windows. Wait for it... she is also a Trump supporter. Why would this person hate Meghan and Harry so much?
Actually, she could be younger. It's hard to tell because people filled with hate usually age in banana years.
I know some of you thought I was joking; I wasn't. Look at the last screenshot she tweeted; that is not Windows 10.

Also, she thinks I hacked her computer. These people are unhinged.🤦🏾‍♂️ ImageImageImage

I wholeheartedly agree that people have legitimate reasons to have anonymous accounts, and I believe everyone has the right to protect their identity. However, we also have to acknowledge people use anonymous accounts to attack other people with impunity; that is the problem...
I am tired of watching people I respect get harassed daily just for doing their job. There is a difference between voicing one's opinion and targeted harassment, and Twitter has failed to stop targeted harassment. Period. I understand no one is forced to use Twitter...
And at any time, a person can decide to leave, but it's not fair for a person to be chased off a platform by anonymous accounts that bring nothing of value to online discourse. These accounts are only used to harass other people and they should be dealt with accordingly...

When I announced BotSentinel.com would research and release data on the accounts targeting Meghan Markle, I was warned by several people that these accounts would begin relentlessly attacking me. Within hours of making the announcement, the attacks started...
They believe it's their "right" to vilify and attack a Black woman for having the audacity to marry a White prince, and they will go after anyone who dares defend Meghan. It's not just targeted harassment and a sustained smear campaign; it's a modern-day lynch mob...
I have observed toxic attacks in the past, and the most toxic has always been focused on women, but I have never witnessed anything like this. It's not free speech, nor is it just voicing one's opinion; it's hate being weaponized and aimed at a Black woman on several platforms...
