KREMLIN DISINFORMATION ON THE INTERNET AND THE REACTION OF WESTERN SOCIETIES

Summary/Abstract: In the article, the authors analyze the activities of Russian trolls that spam social networking sites, including foreign ones, on a daily basis. Pro-Kremlin comments flood the Internet with thousands, marginalizing alternative posts. Russia cares about social divisions and, in the long run, about destabilizing Western societies. On the other hand, the authors analyze the activities of socially aware citizens of European countries who fight disinformation and the Kremlin propaganda. The authors pay special attention to the activities of the so-called elves, stressing that the main method of fighting Russian disinformation in the media is the active and responsible attitude of civil society.
