Facebook said the scale of the operation was small, but it is the first time the company has made public details about an operation it found to be run from China that had been posting about the US election. The accounts"posted content both in support of and against presidential candidates Pete Buttigieg, Joe Biden and Donald Trump," Nathaniel Gleicher, Facebook's head of security policy, wrote in a post on the company's website.
Gleicher told reporters Tuesday that given the nature of the company's findings"we thought that it was important that people should be aware of what we are seeing." Graphika said the operation exposed Tuesday began in late 2016 by posting about Taiwan. By 2018, it was posting about the Philippines and argued in favor of Chinese influence in the region. Also in 2018, the operation created a collection of pages that posted in defense of China's actions in the South China Sea.
How many Russian ones ?
150 accounts, they're laughing at you I bet.
Where is freedom of speech? Where is democracy ? That is what you have been accusing China alot.
Facebook needs to just shut down entirely until the election is over.
150 out of 1.4billion people 😂😂🤣🤣 Facebook is becoming a laughing stock
Well that’s a step in the right direction.
What about Russia? What about those friendly Q people? What about domestic terrorism?
But they left the 15k accounts from Russia
but let’s ban tik tok... okayyyyyy
Might as well put the entire country in a bubble. I really don't understand what so difficult to vote in accordance to the candidate's past performance and platform. No one can manipulate that!
Lol only 150?
That's probably a teeny tiny fraction of them. Did Zuck wake up one day and realize that his beloved FB was a propaganda vehicle for Russia, China and whomever?
How about all the Russian accounts that are still around from 2016?
FBI has already warned of China meddling in the upcoming elections.
No....they could never do such thing....
Now do Russia.
Facebook spies you.
How about we just shut down Facebook until we can figure out what's going on over there.

Explainer: Why is Taiwan-China tension rising and what are the risks?China sent numerous aircraft close to Taiwan during two days of drills from Friday, causing the island's air force to scramble, as Beijing expressed anger at the visit of a senior U.S. official to Taipei. My guess is because their people are starting to wake up and they don't like how they are being treated.. just my guess Taiwan is part of China. For the sake of peace, don’t push mainland China and Taiwan China to get involved into the second Chinese civil war. Don’t play Taiwan as a disposable puppet. Because China threats to invade Taiwan and we Taiwanese will protect our way of livings at all costs.

TikTok tussle shows the uneven economic ‘decoupling’ that has accelerated between U.S. and ChinaTrump is still angry at Xi Jingping because he won't forgive Trump's loans w/the Bank of China, another failed attempt at quid pro quo by Trump. IT'S TIME WE ALL COME TO THE REALIZATION that Trump's only interest is his re-election & that Trump couldn't care less about anything or anyone else. 'TRUMP WILL SAY & DO ANYTHING' he thinks will secure his re-election, even endangering other people's lives. Trump's no leader.

Where Trump and Biden Stand on ChinaBoth Trump and Biden have in the past publicly boasted of having a personal connection with President Xi, and both now say their views on China have soured. Plus, see how the candidates compare on Big Tech, tax policy and more. Biden called a lid today. Biden is not up to being potus. Media and democrats are a disgrace. The man is sick. Does anyone believe Biden will resist China the way Trump does? Come on WSJ, we know your WS readership faces loss of historic profit margins from labor arbitrage, but don’t start gaslighting us, too! Not when the Chinese Gov gave Hunter Biden 1.5 Billion .that is BS!Its all an Act with Biden...Made in China!

China uproots ethnic minority villages in anti-poverty fightChina's ruling Communist Party says its initiatives have helped to lift millions of people out of poverty, but they can require drastic changes, sometimes uprooting whole communities and prod minorities to embrace the language and lifestyle of the Han.
