"The future of Russia’s notorious Internet Research Agency, a "troll factory" that meddled in the 2016 U.S. presidential election, is uncertain after its founder Yevgeny Prigozhin fled to Belarus following his attempted military coup.
Several Russian media outlets reported Friday that Prigozhin shut down his Saint Petersburg-based media holdings, including the troll factory, and is firing all of its employees"

Michael Kan / PCMag cites #Cyble on a #chaos ransomware variant targeting russian computers. That plus the #DozorTel attack against russian MoD - and is the #TrollFactory aka #InternetResearchAgency, another #prigozhin operation, still active? We talk of tanks on the ground, but still little about cyber warfare, where the armies might be turning right now.

In a new twist of #Russia's #informationwarfare, highly cynical butcherer of prisoners Jevgeni #Prigozhin claims to have founded and managed the Internet Research Agency also known as #Putin's #trollfactory.
Finally someone in Russia has admitted that this troll factory actually exists. There have been plenty of denials in the past.
The safest way to know something is true and real is when the Kremlin denies its existence.

It really bothers me how lazy some journalists have become basing entire articles on what people say on #twitter. Now, when I see a news source that does this (e.g. The Bleacher Report (in my RSS feed), it's an instant unfollow. Twitter is nothing more than a #trollfactory these days and doesn't deserve my attention...yet, here we are.
Buying a bunch of #blueCheckmarks for his trolls is not a deterrent to a #RussianOligarch. #ElonMusk sacked the people who worked to stem the tide, keep the #election influence at least to some extent in check.
