Another awful example of foreign interference:
#Israel ex-govt folks with expertise in "psychological warfare" sell #Gmail & #Telegram (!) #hacking services & information manipulation.
They claim interference in 33 Presidential #elections incl in Africa, Americas, U.S. & #Europe.

#Russia's foreign ministry no longer does #foreignpolicy in Europe.
"Russian diplomats' role in the West is reduced to a monotonous repetition of [failed] #propaganda lies."
But Russia's #spy agency still does #influence operations in Europe.

Together with 80+ orgs, we call on #Twitter to keep access to #TwitterAPI free for vital public-interest research.
#Democracy defenders, journalists & academics need access to research foreign interference & #disinformation; to #DefendDemocracy !
We urge lawmakers to enshrine this type of access to all big platforms.

Great panel on the #security aspects of foreign information manipulation & interference.
“If we want to tackle foreign interference & care about strategic autonomy, we should put our money where our mouth is: support organisations working to defend #democracy!”

At #BeyondDisinformation conference, HR/VP @JosepBorrellF criticizes @Twitter’s recent decision to restrict API access for researchers and calls on the company and its CEO to reverse the decision.
“#Russia’s war on #Ukraine is not only fought on the battle field, also in the #information space.
We saw it during the #pandemic too: a battle of #narratives.
Kremlin #disinformation & #propaganda is a weapon. It kills. And it undermines #democracy.”
EU VP @JosepBorrellF opens the #BeyondDisinformation conference in #Brussels.
