"This is a propaganda war.”

Trollsbane. Yevgeny Prigozhin’s ‘troll factory’ is no more. We spoke to former employees of Prigozhin’s media empire about what they used to do for a living — Novaya Gazeta Europe

Yevgeny Prigozhin’s Patriot media conglomerate shut down on 30 June, shortly after the Wagner chief’s mutiny attempt. The conglomerate included the infamous “troll factory” and “media factory” that employed hundreds of people. Hardly anyone but Patriot’s former employees would ever lament the conglomerate’s departure.

"In Iran, the Islamic Republic has created one of the biggest troll armies in the world. In October 2018, Twitter reported that it has taken action against states that try to conduct campaigns of fake news and misinformation on Twitter. In the same year, Twitter took down 4,779 accounts belonging to agents of the Islamic Republic while blocking only four similar Russian accounts."
