Hundreds of English-language websites – from mainstream news outlets to fringe blogs – are linking to articles from a pro-Kremlin network flooding the internet with disinformation, according to a study released by a London-based thinktank.
The study by the Institute for Strategic Dialogue (ISD) found that in more than 80% of citations it analysed, the websites treated the network as a credible source, legitimising its narratives and increasing its visibility. The disinformation operation – known as the Pravda network – was identified by the French government last year.
The ISD cautioned that by linking to articles in the network, the websites were inadvertently increasing the likelihood of search engines and large language models (LLMs) surfacing the pages, even in cases where the linking sites were disputing the Pravda network as a source.
Security experts have expressed fears in recent months that Russia is trying to seed chatbots such as ChatGPT and Gemini with pro-Russia narratives by feeding them large volumes of disinformation, a process called “LLM grooming”.
I mean everything is being filled with pro-X propaganda and disinformation.
I am sure BBC and other European publications never do this. „Undocumented“ migrants is one of my favorite terms from 2020s.
Newspeak at its finest.
Suprised Pikachu face!!!
Is there a list available so we know which ones to avoid?
It would be helpful if they listed the typical pro Kremlin talking points, so that English users can more easily identify them.
I could make some sarcastic jokes like wait til they hear about YouTube but I do t wan to because this seems like a good initiative that shouldn’t be ridiculed
Russia allocate money for propaganda.
deeply concerning – world wide web functions as intended
I’d expect there are hundreds of chinese, russian, spanish etc language websites that link to pro-US propaganda.
Just let the UE drop our new free speech censorship measures to counteract that already
Let’s not give pass to pro Ukraine propaganda and talking points either. Reddit is brigaded by Slava Ukraine bots who also post links to heaps of .ua websites, some literally owned by Ukrainian government – literally a definition of propaganda news. And let’s not forget all the bullshit stories like Ghost of Kiev, Snake Island, BBCs articles on Russians running out of weapons and fighting with shovels (!!!), and countless articles about no losses of territory or casualties on both sides of the war. Every single bit of information we have been fed on r/Europe and r/worldnews is propaganda and talking point, I’ll let you figure out which sides it was (hint, not Russian).
