State Department Techno Experts and Social Media Propaganda
The State Department has deployed a team of "techno experts" to engage on websites and social media platforms using Arabic and Farsi Twitter feeds. These efforts are described as a modern "Ministry of Truth" designed to spread pro-U.S. narratives and disinformation. Reference is made to HB Gary and the use of multiple-personality account software to manage online personas.
