Incendi dolosi, bot sui social, account coordinati: la rete d'influenza russa che punta al Regno Unito non usa zero-day — usa la polarizzazione esistente come vettore d'attacco. La superficie esposta non è tecnica, è sociale. E rilevarla richiede OSINT quanto analisi politica. #infosec #disinfo #OSINT

Gli incendi contro Starmer e la rete russa che punta a destabilizzare il Regno Unito - Valigia Blu

Nel maggio 2025 tre incendi hanno colpito proprietà collegate al primo ministro britannico Keir Starmer. Secondo due inchieste pubblicate da BBC e Financial Times, gli incendi facevano parte di una più ampia campagna russa di sabotaggio, provocazione e disinformazione.

#Americans, expect more of this for your #2026: #Republican hysterical claims, ZERO evidence:

"It was already burbling up in various venues toward the end of last week, but it officially got underway over the weekend: the long-expected 2026 #midterm #election #disinfo bonanza."

corporate #socialMedia is about making money

this has two terrible effects:

1. #moderation is a cost center for them. if you want to make money, you want to cut costs. therefore, it's cheaper for them to say "freeze peach!", decimate the #mod dept, and let #bigotry and #disinfo run wild

2. we say "don't feed the #trolls" but the unfortunate human baseline behavior is that controversy drives clicks, eyeballs, engagement. therefore, bigots and disinfo is *profitable*

#California #Voters, mail your ballots at least a week before the June 2 #election.

Do not listen to #VoterSuppression #disinfo that tells you to "wait and see." Time to wait is over, vote now or #USPS might not deliver your ballot in time to be counted.

A school show in Finland has raised concerns about Russian propaganda influence. When disinformation targets educational spaces, the challenge isn't just technical — it's about media literacy from an early age. The most resilient firewall is a curious, critical mind. 🧠 #infosec #disinfo #cyberpolitics
