on twitter is a lot of the bot activity today coming out of russia yes i've seen a lot of bot nets from the us for example that there are bot nets which exclusively post for example far right content in the us but nets are groups of fake accounts that can be automated to. like in post together you can tell a boat by looking at the three a's which are activity and an image see an amplification on that is if there's an example here whose handle is dreamed of dust which appears to be a u.s. based account it's fifteen months old in those fifteen months it's posted three hundred nineteen thousand tweets per day you have the activity that's a ridiculously high figure in terms of anonymity the avatar picture is a cartoon image not a real person and the biography is just a collection of program phrases and then if you look at the amplification all you see is it's sharing stories to its two thousand six hundred followers neemo also showed us what appeared to be a commercial bot for higher screen name is something like you did you did you it's a it's a random scramble of letters which is often a

basically we can offer you everything an opinion campaign with bots again scholtz social bots on twitter or facebook or even a targeted facebook advertising campaign i think a targeted advertising campaign on facebook would be appreciated by the now graco movement how much money would you invest in these ads we've already roughly calculated the campaign and expect to pay around four thousand to five thousand euros we've included the social bots don't worry we'll pay from frankfurt the payment will not be traceable high ury sounds good i'll collect the data for the facebook or audience and send all the information to you soon so you can watch the campaign immediately as long as it looks like juices pay for their ads i'm not worried. by wednesday satirists from from the tannic satirical magazine revealed that they were behind the entire email exchange they faked the entire thing and they left bill the red faced because many news outlets had seen this exchange german news outlets they had thought will you know this is this is new but suspicious a little bit suspect checked exactly build had

that i was somehow working for russia part of the russian bots that were. sending out negative information to an election well for some time now twitter has been helping the us government catch these a magical russian bots who somehow manage to slay elections and they've detected a massive number of them let's look back at a project veritas investigation for an idea on how they judge who's a russian bot and who's not a russian bot the it is you know i don't want to because you know that. i am and it goes. with the you know what i don't want to. yeah like. the problem of. them. outdoors is that. we spoke with christian monk shura christians a lawyer a political activist couldn't crèche will come to that he believes that the move goes against one of america's couper values freedom of speech form like twitter facebook or instagram these are forms where people have the ability of expressing their freedom of speech and their opinions i think that that's the point of these social media sites so if they begin to censor people just because they're coming under pres

coming up, russian bots take on u.s. gun control.ussia's enduring and expanding twitter campaign against america. elon musk's spacex successfully launches a falcon 9 rocket this week in the company's first mission since millions tuned in earlier this month for a falcon heavy debut. uber rolls out its most affordable option to date, but there is a catch. we will explain. but first, to our lead. russian bots were caught to be targeting certain hashtags, including gun control now, gun reform now, and parkland shooting. it is just one way to widen the divide among u.s. electorate on how to handle gun control, making compromise even more difficult. this has happened with past issues like the nfl anthem debate and the 2016 presidential election. this ultimately led to robert mueller's indictment of 13 russians for allegedly meddling in the u.s. elections. twitter and facebook are facing renewed pressure to do more to expose these bots and fake accounts. are the tech giants doing enough? we spoke to bloomberg technology's selina wang and ta

and what we have you become a person of the bots? >> well, firstly, so we don't clue the spam accounts in the metrics that we report to the markets. >> so then ask i ask how many bot accounts are there? >> so, we can share the information, shared with the stock market this morning, less than 5%. >> 5% of 330 million? >> 330 million excludes that. and to your point the exact opposite is true. if people don't have faith in what it is we are saying, they won't be willing to come to the platform and advertise on the fl platform which is why we fight this with all the tools we have. >> and do you accept that everything you identified fake account on a bot someone somewhere on a bot farm thousands more, and you are fighting against this. are you absolutely convinced and yet convince us you are doing absolutely everything you can to combat the bots? >> so two things. firstly, the benefit of twitter for academics is the open api. that allows people to build apps which are often part of that bot problem. we speuspended 155,000 of those applic

why are there so many bots operating on these platforms?hat is a measure that if twitter was to reason out i have seen different levels of reporting, 50% of accounts are bats -- bots. in any case, there are enough that are amplifying the messages of the fake news russia propaganda counterintelligence operations that may influence our midterm elections so if the companies are serious, there are clear measures they can take to crack down on some of this and make a real dent in the problem. unfortunately, we have not seen it happen as evidenced by what has been going on this week. emily: you cover twitter and know extensively what they are doing and not doing. how are they actually cracking down here when we know a lot of bots have been kicked off the platform, but there is no more than enough. selina: twitter is doing all they can, but there are more constraints. they have had financial issues. they just reported their first real profitable quarter. they are dedicating as many engineers to this issue as they can, but we have not heard them ta

day one, the bots are re-tweeting breaking news.ay two, they are trading -- tweeting implications of the most extreme and divisive issues and opinions on gun-control. by day three, this is when they start to promote conspiracy theories. and they want to start to destabilize american trust in public institutions, saying the government, the media, the police are all lying to you. this is something we have seen over and over again. you mentioned earlier the nfl and them issue and the presidential election. there are fears this same playbook will be applied to the midterm elections coming up. emily: how big of a concern is it that this could move not only from sowing discord on social media, but fabricating real-life events? we now know the russians were behind creating a real-life islam protest in texas. could we see more about? >> absolutely. this is right out of the russia playbook area they will repeated because they do not need to employ a lot of resources. it is easy and they have been effective. what needs to happen is that tech

bots stillre so many operating on these platforms?f twitter was serious about that measure, i have seen a different levels of reporting, i think 15% of accounts are bots. in any case, there are enough that there are -- they are amplifying the messages of these counter intelligence operations, russian propaganda that may influence our elections. there are clear measures that they can take to crack down on this, unfortunately we have not seen that yet. >> you cover twitter extensively. how are they actually cracking down here? twitter is doing all that it can come but they have multiple constraints. they have had financial issues. they also -- they only recently just reported their first profitable quarter. actuallyot heard them take steps to hire new people to address the problem. another issue is that even though these algorithms that twitter has are getting better, these bots are changing their tactics much faster than twitter can keep up. i spoke to some who used to work there who describe it as a whack-a-mole problem. that's the ch

that tends and be et a lot of bots connected to a lot of bots.sian bots, as we head in mueller indictment on sunday have been adept atten trenching in the real world, building connections with real americans, presenting themselves as real people. when you go through and try to purge them, it's difficult to do in a way that is clean, using artificial intelligence, you'll get errors. i want to talk about the percentage of users on twitter that are bots. it to facebook. you know, what do we know about ow many users on twitterer bots, and how powerful they are, as opposed to facebook, which user base but a smaller percentage of fake accounts. harder to ook it's make a fake account. on the black market we see active that have been for longer go for more. this is because people on worked to ve establish their identity over years, if you create app facebook, it may not go through. on twitter, you can make anying. you have an email address. it can be an account for your for a joke account something you want to make fun of. it doesn't have to be a person.

that's a kind of a friendly bot. there are technical tools out there that enable -- that can enable you to find out what you're dealing with. >> there were indictments today, mark, 13 russian nationals for interfering in the election. is this evidence -- isn't this evidence that they're going to continue to meddle in our society? >> i'm going to be direct here. page 14 of the indictment is so damning where they say clearly that the purpose of the operations was -- my words now -- to sew discord. and that specialists were employed in order to exacerbate the differences, whether they were societal or economic differences between the american people. that sounds exactly like what we're seeing in the post-parkland situation. not only are the russians -- did they do it before. i think this is just the start. we better be ready for this in 2018. i don't believe we are. and i think it's going to have an impact again on the elections. >> yes. well that's why we're here reporting. and we've been say ing all along the presiden

as bots what's the issue with the bot idea, is it the platform's job to identify bots and face punishmentey don't or just up to the user >> jim is focused more on the legislation. i can talk about the bots. the challenge with this is researchers estimate, academic researchers estimate 15% of twitter's user base are bots most of us are interacting with these every day and have no idea you see that it is a photo of an african-american in kansas you don't know that's a bot from russia if the researchers can figure it out but twitter can't, why can't twitter do this. because the stock price is dependent on telling wall street we have this many users. they don't want to admit this from the beginning because it eats into engagement numbers if we need this to be an honest, if this is about public square, integrity of public square, the idea is to clearly label don't want human impersonation when you think it is a human being but it is a robot. you need to be able to clearly label he is a robot, if he is one. >> and there are three pieces of legislation. the bot bill in california is transparency

is it one person controlling all of the bots? how does it work?e of different sites that are tracking this on twitter. it is a lot easier to track on twitter than on facebook where some of the sharing is a little private. on twitter, it is right out in the open. one thing that we have seen is that it has to start with the human. a human has to understand, okay, this is a big news event, we're going to jump on it. this hash tag is trending, we're going to use it and spread our message with bots. the message can proliferate that way. the thing that is interesting about this is that eventually it gets picked up by humans and hume reaso humans are interacting with bots. >> in this case, it seems as if bots were working both sides of the argument. >> it has been -- we highlighted this technique before. and in many cases that does happen where the russian influence campaign, for example, with the nfl protest, that's one example where they did that. in this case, it seems like they actually are trying to undermine the gun control advocates. it seems like

twitter has not commented on if the latest block of followers is related to bots.actly happened here? >> overnight, twitter apparently purged a bunch of accounts, and it's unclear if those accounts will be added back. what happened is there had been a slew of users that have violated terms of service on the they got sent and email to verify that they are and justght --a bot verify their phone numbers, but while they're in that period in between, they are not counted as followers for anyone else, so twitter does not even know how many of the accounts that were bute overnight are bots, this is a way to figure that out. this has been an issue for twitter of the second half of 2017 and the start of 2018, and for a while, people said twitter was not taking it seriously enough, that it has constantly been a platform where there is that harassment and then the russian scandal broke were people were using the platform to sway things like the u.s. presidential election, that true even more attention to the platform, and it sounds like maybe they went a little too becerrat t

we've been talking about bots and trolls in the context of the political landscape.alk about parkland a little bit. what have we seen exactly? how do these things work? what are they trying to do in usurping or using hash tags in the way i described? >> it helps to make a distinction between a bot and a troll. >> sure. >> the goal is to jump on any news event people are paying attention to and curry some favor with the people who might be receptive to a certain message and over time once they've become influential, they will slip in some kremlin ideas. but to start, the reason that some of these bots and trols are jumping on parkland is because obviously there was a wave of attention. it starts with a human basically. >> i think there's a sense that this is autonomous or abstract. but there are people behind this. >> as we've seen with the indictments there are a lot of people behind this. using the hash tag, jumping into the conversation and using bots to amplify that message. the scary thing is after the bots and trolls start building a message, it creates a feedba

i don't know why we are according first amendment rights to bot, right? it's not a free speech issue. if we have evidence of foreign manipulation, technical manipulation of the social media space that's not what the american people, you know, from an educated standpoint actually understand is coming at them, right? they think that this is a maj majoritarian. but if that trend is being driven by foreign automated intrusion that is not an issue over free speech. that's an issue of a direct foreign manipulation and so we need, i agree with dr. sillmeyer, right? we need to have the reconnaissance to your point about attribution, right? that's what persistence enables you to do to start to get better at attribution, but we need to be able to move at the speed of relevance. so if, in fact, the bots are hitting us in a particular trend that is meant to be divisive, we should be able to have the capacity to at least disrupt if not disable that capacity. we do know where some of these capacities lie by being persistent in our reconnaissance, we will get a better u
