Google-Backed RAND Study Recommends Infiltrating & Subverting Online Conspiracy Groups From Within
Google's Jigsaw unit sponsors a RAND report that recommends infiltrating & subverting online conspiracy groups from within while planting authoritative messaging wherever possible.
Cass Sunstein wrote and recommended this strategy in his 2008 paper Conspiracy Theories: Their Causes and Cure. Shortly thereafter he was appointed to the UK Governments new Behavioural Insights Team aka Nudge Unit.
These were subsequently exported to governments around the world.
