Facebook says it purged more than 800 spam accounts, pages
Facebook said it has deleted more than 800 pages of EE. UU And accounts for spammers with politically stained garbage links and clickbait just a few weeks before the US semester. UU choices.
The prohibited accounts and Facebook the sites exhibited "inauthentic coordinated behaviors", such as working together to make the pages look more popular than they really are. This, Facebook said, was designed to trick users into who they are and what they are doing.
The social network said that these accounts broadcast "sensational political content" designed to take people to websites loaded with advertising outside of Facebook. In the past, these spammers have often focused on celebrity gossip, weight loss remedies and fake iPhones.
The pages that Facebook eliminated fell on both sides of the political spectrum, Facebook said, although he declined to say whether there was more to the right or the left. The deleted pages included the conservative "Nation in Distress" and the left wing "Snowflakes", among others with names like "Reasonable People Unite", "The Resistance" and "Right Wing News".
Facebook said that it does not analyze the content of the publications and the photos that are being disseminated in the accounts, but the "behavior" of the pages, such as the use of false accounts or the sending of spam, when it is decided if they are deleted . .
The turn to politics suggests that spammers are learning from the Russian playbook on how to make people angry and click. Facebook has been working to eliminate disinformation and electoral interference since it recognized that Russian agents abused their service in 2016.
But while those actors seemed determined to interrupt the election, Facebook says their last purge was about the accounts that try to make money.
