Had you heard about Russian bots before? What did you know before you read the article?
-No I had not heard of Russian bots before reading this article. What is the main goal of the bots? -The main goal is to defend against, deter, and raise costs on Russian and other actors efforts to undermine democracy and democratic institutions. What is the danger of the bots? Tell me about 3 negative effects. -They can divide America into factions causing turmoil in the main cities. -They undermine the American Government and make them look weak, causing people to lose faith. -It could cause a rebellion or even worse a full on civil war in America which would devastate the states. Why do you think people would spread misinformation and want to divide people? -I personally believe that the reason these bots are programed to spread this misinformation is to change the minds and views of others. For example someone that is pro guns might see all these bots and their views could in fact change from that to wanting gun restrictions as well. Have you heard about any solutions to this problem? Can you think of any? -I have not heard of any solutions but one that I can think of is that people need to become more educated on the fact that there is in fact fake news out there and they need to learn not to believe everything they see or read on the internet and even in some cases the TV.
