"A chilling account of Russian information warfare, Putin's Trolls exposes the individuals and organizations behind the Kremlin's coordinated, military-style social media operations against the Western world. In this courageous and unflinching book, award-winning journalist Jessikka Aro interweaves her own dramatic story as a target of Russian social media propaganda with accounts from many internationally known critics of the Kremlin, who share their own stories of being targeted by Russia's multifaceted cyber warfare campaigns. While investigating the impact of Russian troll operations outside of Russia, Jessikka learned that citizens in many other countries were being victimized by Kremlin-designed information campaigns. These actions were frequently conducted through an organized "troll factory" led by Russia's security and intelligence apparatus, using unregulated social media platforms including YouTube, Facebook and Twitter"--Page 4 of cover.
