In this paper we define cyber troops as government, military or political‐party teams committed to manipulating public opinion over social media. Given that little is known about the differences in capacity, tools and techniques of these practices in different countries, we conducted a crossnational and comparative study of global cyber troops. Examining social media operations in 25 countries, we have undertaken an inventory of budget expenditures, staffing, organizational behavior and communication strategies to analyses the size, scale and extent to which different kinds of political regimes deploy cyber troops to influence and manipulate the public online. In January 2015, the British Army announced that its 77th Brigade would “focus on non‐lethal psychological operations using social networks like Facebook and Twitter to fight enemies by gaining control of the narrative in the information age” (Solon, 2015). The primary task of this unit is to shape public behavior through the use of “dynamic narratives” to combat the political propaganda disseminated by terrorist organizations.
