CS Colloquium - Tracking the Spread and Sway of Misinformation Narratives at Scale
Zakir Durumeric
AbstractWhile a significant amount of research has shed light on how inauthentic news and misinformation spreads on social media platforms like Twitter, inauthentic narratives are increasingly spread on alternative platforms, messaging apps like Telegram and WhatsApp, niche forums, and on the broader web. In this talk, I will discuss how technologists can provide visibility into the spread of information on the broader Internet. I will present some of the recent work...
