Thanks. OPs should do that anyhow.

It stands to reason that attacking a few servers won't stop all of Russia's hybrid warfare, but it also stands to reason that there is some effect.

In any case, I hope Ukraine continues to succesfully attack (hopefully without civilian casualties) Russian infrastructure. We all benefit from that.

No. There has been no effect. I'm sorry your propaganda was fake. Welcome to the internet.

If the goal is to gut down on fake posts, it'd be a lot more helpful if Ukraine were to drone a few troll farms. It might alos have a positive effect on the US November elections.

You don’t think they already have this?

Why do you think this story blew up so much, being largely misinformation?

Why would we assume a troll farm is even a physical thing you can bomb? I imagine 99% of those are work-from-home jobs that people just log into.

They really should.

But there are a lot of trollfarms now. And the US is running the majority of the ones that operate in the US you can be sure. With these chatbots, it's about to make the internet much more dead than it is already.

‘Meddling with the US elections, eh?’ An imaginable question of the (bought and promoted by Russia) US president to Ukraine.

I really like the irony of it. If Ukraine wants to affect the elections in their favour, they should target the bot farms indeed.

OK thanks um I guess

Sorry https://fedidb.com/servers/lemmy.ml is the url for monitoring lemmy.ml the statistics do look like there's a tiny slump but nothing significant to warrant accusing Yandex bot usage.
