Social networking giant Twitter disclosed today three new state-linked information operations that have been taking place on its platform this year.
As a result of its investigation, Twitter said it banned and removed 32,242 accounts that were part of networks operated out of China, Russia, and Turkey, all three pushing local political agendas and narratives, and associated with state-sponsored entities.
Of the three networks, the largest was the one based in China. Twitter said it banned 23,750 accounts that served as the core of the network and which were responsible for posting most of the content.
