- A man in Pakistan has been making thousands from Facebook pages spreading racist videos aimed at UK audiences;
- Posts target Keir Starmer and Sadiq Khan, and turn a profit via Meta’s ad revenue model;
- New AI tools mean creators can produce divisive viral content without needing to understand its message.
Kind of interesting to see this happening in the UK as well. Similar to all of the Russian bots on Facebook targeting the US.
Or the “American” chuckleheads targeting Alberta.
