There was at least one I know of in 2016, a 20 year old British guy in Vegas tried to grab a cop’s gun at a rally. He was in prison for a year and then got sent back to the UK

Fediverse vs Disinformation

316 readers

Propaganda and disinformation are a big problem on the internet, and the Fediverse is no exception.

What's the difference between misinformation and disinformation? The inadvertent spread of false information is misinformation. Disinformation is the intentional spread of falsehoods.

By equipping yourself with knowledge of current disinformation campaigns by state actors, corporations and their cheerleaders, you will be better able to identify, report and (hopefully) remove content matching known disinformation campaigns.
