Tällainen henkilö kuin @NooraMuittari oli kirjoitellut artikkelistäni pitkiä kommentteja ja esitellyt minut "vasemmistolaisaktivistina". Muittari esittelee itsensä Linkkarissa (tarkistin) freelance journalistina. Tosi kummallista, että hän journalistina ei kuitenkaan osaa tituleerata minua oikein. Vasemmistolaisaktivisti on sellainen joka on mukana vasemmistolaisessa politiikassa ja kuuluu johonkin vasemmistopuolueeseen tai liikkeeseen, tai äänestää heitä ja osallistuu siihen liittyvään toimintaan. Heidät tunnistaa yleensä siitä, että he kertovat siitä itse. Minä en äänestä vasemmistoa enkä kuulu mihinkään vasemmistolaisliikkeeseen tai puolueeseen. Mitä puolueita äänestän, ei taas kuulu varsinaisesti asiaan mitenkään. Journalistin kannattaisi lopettaa ihan oman lööperin kirjoittaminen nettiin. En edes tiedä kuka ostaa lehtijuttuja journalistilta, joka sepittää mitä sattuu. #journalismi #vasemmistopolitiikka #kommentit

Desde criança sonhava em ser jornalista para transformar realidades e ajudar pessoas. Nunca sentiria que fiz meu papel de jornalista se meu trabalho fosse atrelado a um mal severo que destrói a vida de centenas de milhares de pessoas. Nunca colocaria meu emprego acima da vida e da saúde mental de gente inocente. Há dois anos recebo proposta de bet toda semana, mas nunca aceitei, nem mesmo quando estava vivendo de freelancer, sem emprego fixo. #Jornalismo #SaúdeMental #Ética

De NOS vertrok van Twitter omdat het een linkse modegril was. Parmantig liepen ze daar achteraan. Kijk ons eens deugen. Ondertussen gebruiken ze wel Twitter om beelden te stelen van hardwerkende freelancers. #Twitter #NOS #Media

Russia’s fake African newsrooms – propaganda designed to look local A Facebook user in Nairobi, Accra, Johannesburg or Luanda encounters what appears to be a local news page. It publishes stories about African politics, Western influence and relations with Russia. The language is tailored to an African audience and the page presents itself not as a foreign broadcaster, but as part of the local information landscape. Behind some of these outlets, however, Meta found operators based in Russia. In its 2026 threat research, the company disclosed a Coordinated Inauthentic Behaviour network targeting audiences in Angola, Ghana, Kenya and South Africa. Meta removed 37 Facebook accounts and 29 Pages connected to the operation. Around 30,000 users followed at least one of the Pages, while the operators spent approximately $7,000 on Facebook and Instagram advertising, mostly in euros and US dollars. The numbers are relatively modest. The method is considerably more important. Rather than openly distributing Russian state messaging, the network posed as local African news sources and grassroots organisations, promoting narratives about Western colonialism and political interference while presenting Russia as a credible economic and political alternative. It was an old geopolitical message delivered through a much more effective identity: not Moscow speaking to Africa, but Africans apparently speaking to one another. A news outlet that was actually an influence operation Meta's investigation found that the network attempted to conceal its Russian origin while creating media brands that appeared indigenous to the countries they targeted. Its content amplified historical grievances against former colonial powers, criticised Western involvement in Africa and promoted closer relations with Russia. One example helps illustrate how the infrastructure was assembled. A Facebook Page targeting Kenya was called Kenya Watchtower. According to OpenAI's subsequent investigation, Facebook transparency records showed that the Page had previously been named “Farmtown5”. It appears to have been acquired or repurposed rather than built from scratch as a Kenyan news organisation. Some Pages also exposed administrator locations in Russia and Ukraine. Other elements of the network had previously targeted audiences in Zambia and Namibia. This use of apparently local identities is particularly important in the African information environment. A story published by RT or another identifiable Russian outlet arrives with an obvious geopolitical provenance. The same narrative presented by something resembling an independent Kenyan, Ghanaian or South African newsroom carries a different kind of credibility. The source appears closer to the reader, and the geopolitical interest behind the message becomes less visible. Then investigators found Dr Manuel Godsin The Facebook operation was only one part of a broader information ecosystem. OpenAI investigated related activity after receiving information from Meta and subsequently banned a ChatGPT account it assessed as likely originating in Russia. OpenAI called the campaign Operation No Bell. The account was being used to generate long-form articles and social-media posts about African geopolitics. Prompts were primarily written in English, but OpenAI also observed Russian-language instructions that the user described as coming from a manager. The operator sometimes explicitly asked the model to make the material appear less AI-generated – including requests to avoid stylistic features associated with machine-generated text and to write more like a human journalist. Many articles appeared under the name “Dr Manuel Godsin”, presented as an academic with a PhD from the University of Bergen and an affiliation with an organisation called the International Centre for Political and Strategic Studies. OpenAI could find no credible evidence that Godsin existed. Searches of Norway's National Research Information Repository and the University of Bergen library produced no record of him. Investigators subsequently discovered that a photograph used to represent Godsin had appeared years earlier on a Russian professional networking site and apparently belonged to a law student in St Petersburg. The fabricated academic identity was nevertheless remarkably productive. OpenAI identified 53 online articles carrying the Godsin byline. The fiction had moved beyond fake social-media pages and into the real media ecosystem. When propaganda enters genuine newsrooms This is the most consequential aspect of the operation. The articles were not confined to websites controlled by the influence network. Some were published by genuine African news organisations, including established South African outlets. The content mixed local political issues with broader geopolitical narratives. Some pieces criticised the United States and Britain or defended Russia's role in Africa. One accused the British NGO Crisis Action of fomenting protests in South Africa. Another praised Russia's presence in the Central African Republic. Other material addressed Kenya, Angola and relations between African governments and Washington. The mechanism represents a significant evolution from the classic troll-farm model. Instead of building an audience entirely on its own platforms, an influence operator can manufacture an apparently credible expert, generate articles in his name and persuade genuine news organisations to publish them. Once this happens, the propaganda acquires something a fake Facebook Page cannot provide: the institutional credibility of a real newsroom. OpenAI assessed No Bell's social-media impact as limited. One Facebook Page had around 3,000 followers before Meta removed it, while several others had very small audiences. But the operation was more successful in placing material in established media. In OpenAI's impact framework, it approached the level at which an influence operation breaks into mainstream media. For information operators, a single article published by a recognised outlet can potentially be more valuable than thousands of impressions generated by an obviously artificial account. A much larger network of ghost journalists Subsequent research suggests that Manuel Godsin was not an isolated experiment. In August 2026, Graphika, working with Code for Africa and with support from Meta, published a much broader investigation into Russian ghostwriting operations across African media. Researchers identified 44 ghost writers and fake experts, 38 of them assessed as high-confidence fabricated personas, operating between 2021 and 2026. Their material appeared or was quoted across 138 websites and was subsequently republished through at least 113 Facebook accounts and Pages, including authentic users, coordinated inauthentic networks and official Russian communication channels. The narratives were strikingly consistent. They included criticism of France, Ukraine and the United States; attacks on organisations such as ECOWAS and the International Criminal Court; positive portrayals of Russian involvement in Africa; praise for Russian paramilitary forces; and support for sovereignty-oriented political projects such as the Alliance of Sahel States. The operation therefore extends beyond creating fake news websites. It attempts to insert Russian-aligned narratives into the legitimate African media ecosystem using identities that appear African, independent or academically authoritative. This also explains why measuring reach through the original Facebook network alone is misleading. A fabricated article may begin with an influence operator, appear in a genuine African publication, be republished elsewhere and eventually circulate without any visible connection to Russia. At that point, the provenance of the narrative has effectively been laundered. An old Russian strategy with increasingly local faces Russia's use of local intermediaries in Africa is not new. Meta documented Russian networks using African nationals as early as 2019. In 2020 it dismantled another operation involving people in Ghana and Nigeria working on behalf of individuals in Russia, with links to previous activity associated with the Internet Research Agency. More recent Meta investigations suggest that this model has continued to evolve. Networks have increasingly relied on local freelancers, social-media managers and authentic media outlets rather than exclusively operating armies of obviously fake Russian-controlled accounts. This decentralisation offers several advantages. Local operators understand language, political sensitivities and cultural references. Authentic accounts are harder to identify than newly created synthetic personas. Local media brands can also deliver narratives without immediately triggering the scepticism associated with Russian state outlets. There is no evidence that every African journalist, freelancer or publication carrying such material knowingly participates in Russian influence activity. Meta explicitly notes in its investigations that some local contractors may not know who ultimately commissioned their work. That distinction is essential. The operation's effectiveness partly depends on precisely this ambiguity between deliberate participation, commercial content placement and unwitting amplification. The objective is to make Russian narratives look African The significance of this network is therefore not its 30,000 Facebook followers or its $7,000 advertising budget. Those figures are small compared with the audiences of major African media organisations. What matters is the distribution model. Traditional foreign propaganda asks an audience to trust a foreign source. These operations attempt to remove the foreign source from the equation altogether. A Russian geopolitical narrative can be generated with AI, attributed to an expert who does not exist, published by a media organisation that does, amplified through a Facebook Page presenting itself as local, and then rediscovered elsewhere as apparently independent African analysis. By the time the reader encounters it, Moscow may have disappeared completely from the chain of attribution. The resulting information operation is therefore less about making Russian propaganda more persuasive than about making it look as though it is no longer Russian propaganda at all. In an increasingly fragmented African media environment, that may be the more important evolution to watch.

Prostuję fake info użytkownika WeAllPlayGames podane dalej przez Krzysztofa M. Maja (@krzysztofmmaj – oznaczam, bo zweryfikowałem, myślę, że temat cię zainteresuje) podczas streama z dnia 6 września 2026 roku. Doszło do niewłaściwego cytowania i najpewniej błędnego korzystania ze źródeł. To NIEPRAWDA, że na 160 pracowników Rebel Wolves nad Wiedźminem 3 pracowało poniżej 10 (autor komentarza wymienia zaledwie CZTERY osoby). To także NIEPRAWDA, że odejście z CDPR w celu założenia Rebel Wolves jest mitem. Konrad Tomaszkiewicz odszedł co prawda w kontrowersyjnych okolicznościach, ale w wywiadzie z Forbesem sam podaje, że chciał także pracować w teamie wielkością przypominający ten pierwotny działający przy Wiedźminie 3, wraz z przyjaciółmi, z którymi nad owym projektem wcześniej działał. Firmę założył w grudniu 2021 roku, czyli pół roku po rozstaniu się z CDPR i dwa miesiące po rozpoczęciu niepełnego etatu w Warszawskiej Szkole Filmowej. 8 z 10 „założycieli” Rebel Wolves (czyli już więcej niż przytoczone w wideo cztery) pracowało w CD Projekcie Red – zależnie od nazwiska mowa o czasie od 7 do 17 lat (!). Z mojej analizy napisów końcowych, profilów pracowników Rebel Wolves na LinkedIn i encyklopedii internetowej MobyGames wynika, że nad The Blood of Dawnwalker pracowało +/- 35 ekspracowników CD Projektu Red, w tym wielu z nich działało nad Wiedźminem 3 i Cyberpunkiem. Ponadto sporo wymienionych osób pełni w Rebel Wolves funkcje kierowników firmowych i liderów danych działów. Liczby mogą oczywiście odrobinę się różnić zależnie od aktualności źródeł czy zakresu kategoryzacji devów. Na na przykład nie uwzględniłem na poniższej liście ludzi działających w firmie Spokko nad Wiedźminem: Pogromcą potworów (niegdyś CDPR miał tam udziały większościowe, w kwietniu 2023 podmioty dokonały fuzji), a także osób, które działały nad Cyberpunkiem 2077 bądź daną odsłoną Wiedźmina w roli freelancerów czy w ramach outsourcingu. Niemniej – oto wykonana przeze mnie lista osób z doświadczeniem w CDPR, działających w Rebel Wolves. Pełna lista jest także dostępna (wraz z opisem smaczków z Wiedźmina 3 w The Blood of Dawnwalker) na CD-Action: https://t.co/FfZ1jIUoPu Którzy twórcy Wiedźmina 3 bądź ekspracownicy CD Projektu Red projektowali The Blood of Dawnwalker lub pracowali w Rebel Wolves?

Nu skal også Stig Tøfting betale mere end 100 procent i skat. Den tidligere professionelle fodboldspiller er i dag kendt for at kommentere fodbold på Viaplay. Indtægten fra netop dét arbejde vil Skattestyrelsen beskatte med 110 procent: først som selskabsskat hos konsulenten, dernæst igen som løn. Sagen er grotesk. Det er mig en gåde, at Skattestyrelsen kæmper med næb og kløer for at fastholde en praksis, som eksperter vurderer strider mod både grundloven og menneskerettighederne. Og efter afgørelser som denne kan ingen selvstændig konsulent vide sig sikker. Det viser sagens fakta. Tøftings selskab fakturerer først, når arbejdet er udført. Ingen fast månedlig betaling. Intet opsigelsesvarsel. Han bestemmer selv, hvilke kampe han dækker, og melder på forhånd ud, hvornår han har tid. Han deltager ikke i redaktionsmøder. Han får ingen løn under sygdom. Viaplay skrev endda direkte til Skattestyrelsen og bekræftede, at parterne var enige om, at han ikke var ansat. Undervejs gav Skattestyrelsen ham ret i, at Viaplay ikke har instruktionsbeføjelse over ham. De bestemmer altså ikke, hvordan opgaverne løses. Netop instruktionsbeføjelsen er ellers normalt et af de vigtigste kriterier for Skattestyrelsen. I stedet vægtede Skattestyrelsen nogle andre kriterier: at selskabet stiller sin ejer til rådighed for en kundes kerneopgave, at der er en konkurrenceklausul, at samarbejdet løber over tid, og at Tøfting ikke selv medbringer udstyr. Er de kriterier opfyldt, skriver Skattestyrelsen i afgørelsen, vil det være ”meget sjældne tilfælde”, hvor den ikke vurderer, at der er tale om et lønmodtagerforhold. Tager man Skattestyrelsen på ordet, er titusindvis af enmandsvirksomheder hermed jaget vildt. IT-konsulenter, tolke, freelancejournalister, selvstændige projektledere, sygeplejersker med eget vikarfirma. Skattebetalerne opfordrer skatteminister @engelschmidt til at gribe ind og standse Skattestyrelsens urimelige praksis hurtigst muligt.

Is Roel Nollet, de journalist die voor @vrtnws verslag uitbrengt op Ceuta, lid van Extinction Rebellion? Daar lijkt het wel op. Lees even mee. 👇 @vrtnws kreeg de afgelopen dagen online veel kritiek. Op beelden zien we hoe een minderjarige jongen in #Ceuta aanwijzingen krijgt over hoe hij zich moet gedragen voor de camera. @vrtnws ontkent die aantijgingen in een uitgebreid artikel met op zich aannemelijke redenen. Desondanks blijft het vreemd om de focus te leggen op de vluchtende kinderen in Ceuta. 99% van de migranten die Ceuta bestormden waren mannen van militaire leeftijd. De prioriteit ligt dus blijkbaar niet bij de objectieve waarheid. De journalist die die reportage maakte, is Roel Nollet. Voor Nollet journalist werd, was hij werkzaam in het asielcentrum van Lint. Hij hielp er asielzoekers met hun asielprocedure. Raar dat VRT een freelancejournalist stuurt die duidelijk ideologisch enorm betrokken is bij het thema waar hij neutraal verslag over moet uitbrengen, toch? Maar daar stopt het niet. Nollet richtte in 2009 'The Redhorse Collective' op. Een nieuwsmedium dat vooral gefocust is op 'human rights issues'. Met dat collectief is Nollet de vaste verslaggever op alle acties van Extinction Rebellion in België. Achteraf maakt hij daar kritiekloze reportages over, waarin meestal uitsluitend het narratief van @ExtinctionR wordt gebracht. De acties van Extinction Rebellion zijn meestal misdaden. Het is een enorm risico voor dat soort organisaties om proactief journalisten mee te nemen. Behalve wanneer je die blind kan vertrouwen omdat ze bijvoorbeeld lid zijn natuurlijk. Het is moeilijk om met 100% zekerheid te zeggen dat Nollet lid is van Extinction Rebellion omdat extreemlinkse verenigingen die criminele activiteiten uitvoeren natuurlijk geen formele ledenlijst bijhouden. Er zijn echter nog aanwijzingen. Zo noemt één van de reportages die Redhorse over Extinction Rebellion schreef: "Inside a Rebel's Mind". Nollet zijn eigen podcast noemt dan weer: "Redhorse Rebel Radio". Vreemde marketing voor een journalist. Het werk van Nollet wordt niet alleen uitgezonden door @vrtnws, maar uiteraard ook door @AlJazeera. Het internationale nieuwsmedium van de koninklijke familie van Qatar dat de fake news controverses aan elkaar rijgt. In zijn eigen bio omschrijft Nollet zich onder andere als: "Gelooft in klimaatverandering. Nu handelen alstublieft". Wederom een opvallende ideologische betrokkenheid voor een journalist. Of hij effectief lid is van Extinction Rebellion is dus moeilijk te zeggen, maar daar lijkt het minstens wel op. Omwille van zijn duidelijk ideologische betrokkenheid als voorstander van meer migratie en bij extreemlinkse verenigingen is het in ieder geval wel duidelijk dat VRT NWS beter geen beroep op hem zou doen om verslag uit te brengen over die thema's. Zeker aangezien hij op freelancebasis voor de VRT werkt. @pauwelt #Journalism #ClimateChange #Migration
