"Did Ukraine's strikes lead to a decline in Russian disinformation? >>Probably not. While a few graphs went viral on social media suggesting >>there had been a big decline in activity from Yandex bots, those graphs

<laughs and points> Bullshit!
That magical Russian disinformation. It does not disappear even when
their data centers are bombed.
Yeah. Actually, it did, liar. It even got slow in here. For days I
was trying to figure out why 100+ posts twice a day turned into barely
more than 50.
There?s some sorcery going on, for sure.
?What are these different kinds of bots?
?The term ?bot? can mean many different things,?? said Micha?
?Rysiek? Wo?niak, an internet infrastructure expert. ?When
Cloudflare data shows a precipitous drop in ?bot? traffic, that does
not mean ?automated social media troll accounts?, it means
?software that makes automated web requests on a large scale.???
... as well as Russia's notorious right wing, social media bots.
What Cloudflare picked up was a decline in activity from Yandex?s web >>crawlers. These are used by search engines to index websites and help
users to find them, said Khan???
Yes, that too. But that ignores the fact that right wing Internet
traffic at social media sites like Tucky's X account dropped by a
third or more. Carlson's traffic dropped by over seventy percent that
week. It even got noticeable quieter in afr-l, as I noted above.
I'm dissapointed. I've always been anti American and pro Russian so I >support the bots and what they say.
Russian Culture is the only white culture. Fuck America.
Only libruls hate Russia.
And globull warbling. Libruls hates globull warbling too!
