Victoria Nuland and Jim O’Brien Impersonated in Russian Influence Hoax

A new Russian disinformation plot features some laughably bad attempts at impersonating U.S. officials—but it could still be very dangerous.

A few notes: The fake stories were ranked high in Google search before I reached out to Google about the disinformation, raising alarming questions about the future of content moderation and search algorithms when it comes to Russian disinformation leading into the 2024 election
@shanvav sadly Google no longer cares about the accuracy of its search results and only cares about making more money, so it is now useless as a search engine.
@darwinwoodka @shanvav you might remember seeing a suggestion here recently.
Try entering “pre 2023” before whatever you’re attempting to google.
