troll farms

Troll farms are groups organized to create and spread false or misleading online content, often to influence public opinion, sow discord, or manipulate political outcomes. They operate multiple accounts or fake identities across social media platforms, intentionally posting provocative, misleading, or divisive messages. These activities are usually coordinated and can be funded or managed by governments, organizations, or individuals seeking to sway public perception or interfere with online discourse. Troll farms exploit the power of social networks to reach large audiences quickly, often blurring the line between genuine discussion and manipulation.
