Facebook et la publicité achetée par des intérêts russes: on tentait de favorise Jill Stein, Bernie Sanders et Donald Trump

On pourrait résumer aisément en affirmant que ces publicités visaient à affaiblir la campagne d'Hillary Clinton... Le principe de base étant de déstabiliser le système américain.

 "There is no indication Stein, Sanders or Trump was aware of the advertisements, which were described to POLITICO by people with knowledge of them.

 Facebook declined to comment on the specifics of the advertisements but noted a previous statement: “The vast majority of ads run by these accounts didn’t specifically reference the U.S. presidential election or voting for a particular candidate. Rather, the ads and accounts appeared to focus on amplifying divisive social and political messages across the ideological spectrum — touching on topics from LGBT matters to race issues to immigration to gun rights.”

U.S. officials are investigating whether about 3,000 ads purchased on Facebook by the Kremlin-linked Internet Research Agency might have been part of a larger Russian government scheme to meddle in the 2016 election."
