summary

Research finds 6,000 Twitter users who spread misinformation are mostly sharing to provoke, not because they believe it; interviews report 24% wanted society burned as a fantasy. Claims that opaque platform algorithms decide visibility sit beside concrete policy moves — a new Turkish law threatens three years in prison and forces platforms with over a million users to hand over data and algorithms. Examples tie propaganda tactics to measurable psychological rewards and rising authoritarian legal tools.
