1. El Bloqueo como Herramienta Principal de Defensa.
La acción más recurrente entre los usuarios para frenar la propagación de contenido falso es el bloqueo directo de las cuentas que consideran fuentes de desinformación. Esta medida es vista como una defensa personal e inmediata para mantener la calidad de su propio feed y evitar la interacción con actores maliciosos.
- If you're spreading disinformation, you're getting blocked. It's on you to prove you're not.
- Just checked out the guy's account and it was recently set up just to spread disinformation. Reported and blocked.
- A handful of mutual follow this account and i really recommend you block them. We need to root out disinformation here, it doesn’t make us stronger.
- One thing you can always count on me to do is block people who respond to my covid safety posts with disinformation. Especially the concern-troll variety of disinformation.
- I just block people who promote disinformation. I know they just want the clicks and follows, but why pollute the mind with untruths or spend time verifying their every lie?
2. La Controversia de las "Listas de Desinformación".
Una práctica central y polémica es la creación de "listas de moderación" que agrupan a usuarios bajo etiquetas como "probable vector de desinformación". Muchos usuarios se quejan de ser incluidos injustamente en estas listas, a menudo por comportamientos como el "follow farming" (seguir a muchas cuentas), y perciben estas acciones como una forma de acoso, censura o incluso como una táctica de desinformación en sí misma.
- This account thinks they are the authority on what the rest of us say. They have added me to a "disinformation" list. Sadly even blocking doesn't get rid of these people.
- This despicable account put me on an inaccurate list for disinformation. I would recommend reporting and blocking after you vet it for yourself. .
- Check out . See if you've been added to their moderation list "likely vectors for disinformation, possible inauthentic behavior." i'm on it with many other resisters, and i have an opinion too. Mine is that this list is a perfect example of disinformation.
- Pass on disinformation list. You eff all the way off, i deal with facts only troll. Goodbye . Has added you to the "likely to pass on or post disinformation (follow farming, etc)" moderation list.
- Hi friends, beware accounts like this one pretending to be “combating disinformation”. . Is a fake account abusing moderation lists. "propaganda and fake news" is piggybacking on legit mod lists in order to get libs/dems blocked.
3. Reporte y Defensa Colectiva.
Además del bloqueo individual, los usuarios se organizan para reportar masivamente las cuentas que consideran perjudiciales. Esta acción colectiva busca que los moderadores de la plataforma intervengan y eliminen las cuentas que violan las reglas, tratando la desinformación como un "patógeno" que debe ser erradicado de forma comunitaria.
- Report as a disinformation account and then block to stop them from spreading bs and propaganda.
- Report, report, report, disinformation is a violation of rules, then put on block lists and then block yourself. This is the primary way to defend us from them, who operate like a pathogen. It is extremely important to continue to do this.
- Don’t just block the account. Report it, as well as the individual posts for spreading disinformation.
- If you see the post above, please consider reporting the disinformation account making it and block it.
- I reported this account for listing people for spreading disinformation. I encourage everyone else to follow suit. .
4. Identificación de Cuentas Falsas y Bots.
Los usuarios comparten activamente consejos para identificar cuentas sospechosas, a menudo asociadas con bots o campañas de desinformación (especialmente rusas). Las señales de alerta incluyen un bajo número de seguidores, una fecha de creación reciente, falta de publicaciones originales o un comportamiento enfocado únicamente en responder a temas específicos para sembrar discordia.
- I'm amazed when people interact with an account that's clearly an account created only to sow disinformation and damage our country. Those accounts often have a handful of followers or no or few posts. They're fairly easy to spot.
- Watch out for the russian bots posting disinformation here. Block them and let your followers know to block them too.
- Do you see a news post where a reply-person is saying something that seems like disinformation? look at their profile. Was it created right after the story they're replying to came out? do they only reply to people replying to that news story? report as disinformation and block them right away.
- This is some weird fucking disinformation account that just got created today to post on these threads block it into oblivion.
- This site is putting everyone on a disinformation list. We think this is a russian bot . I reported and blocked . Beware of this kind of shit happening more on here.
