Didn't read it all! So if the conclusion doesn't fit anything, well, it should still be interesting to read...
Read a comment at the bottom. If it's about government making fake accounts. Hamma needs to do some cleaning to get rid of feds! 8p I wonder who is a fed! :rofl:
Damn. Can't put a poll in now. We could do a full poll on who thinks who is a fed. I wonder who would get the most votes.
“The hack also revealed evidence that Team Themis was developing a “persona management” system — a program, developed at the specific request of the United States Air Force, that allowed one user to control multiple online identities (“sock puppets”) for commenting in social media spaces, thus giving the appearance of grass roots support. The contract was eventually awarded to another private intelligence firm.”
To me the image of government agents with sock puppets as required part of their job just makes me imagine a lot of time wasting for the government. And a lot of new janitorial jobs to clean up the aftermath!
