Memes, the pandemic and the new tactics of information warfare

(Just a bite)

WASHINGTON โ€” The COVID-19 pandemic is evidence that Russia and China have accelerated adoption of their age-old influence and disinformation tactics to the modern era, national security experts and military leaders said.

 

Those countries are leveraging U.S. laws, social media platforms and divisions within society to their larger strategic advantage and as a way to weaken the United States.

 

โ€œThis pandemic crisis has made it very, very clear that Russia, China and others intend to strategically use cyber-enable information operations against the U.S.,โ€ Lt. Gen. Mary Oโ€™Brien, deputy chief of staff for intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance and cyber effects operations, said during a Joint Service Academy Cybersecurity Conference webinar June 11.

 

โ€œTheyโ€™re injecting disinformation, which is not a new concept in itself, but now by incorporating cyber means, theyโ€™re reaching millions of people to exacerbate existing tensions within the U.S. and between us, our allies and partners.โ€

 

She said these efforts include spreading conspiracy theories and confusing messages about the virus such as its origins and risks.

 

Such tactics are here to stay.

Iโ€™m hearing chatter from sources that DOJ investigators are talking to Strzok, Pientka and other FBI agents involved in the now debunked probe into @realDonaldTrump

Looks like the Barr/ Durham investigation is moving forward - at least we can hope. Letโ€™s get indictments
