Fake accounts drove praise of Rodrigo Duterte and now target Philippine election

https://fed.brid.gy/r/https://www.rappler.com/philippines/fake-accounts-drove-praise-rodrigo-duterte-target-2025-elections/

<p>BANGKOK, Thailand – A sophisticated network of fake social media accounts sprang to the impassioned defense of former Philippine president <a href="https://www.rappler.com/newsbreak/in-depth/inside-story-rodrigo-duterte-icc-arrest/">Rodrigo Duterte</a> after he was <a href="https://www.rappler.com/newsbreak/in-depth/inside-story-rodrigo-duterte-icc-arrest/">sent to the International Criminal Court </a>to face charges over his bloody <a href="https://www.rappler.com/topic/war-on-drugs/">drug war</a>.</p>

<p>Around a third of accounts discussing the arrest on the platform X, mostly praising Duterte and lambasting the court, were fake, according to research shared with Reuters by a tech firm that termed it a “deliberate, organized” campaign. (READ: <a href="https://www.rappler.com/newsbreak/in-depth/supreme-court-icc-targeted-fake-news-attacks-duterte-arrest/">Supreme Court, ICC targeted by ‘fake news’ after Duterte arrest</a>)</p>

<p>The accounts acted with a sophistication that made them hard to distinguish from real people, it said.</p>

<p>Such aggressive proliferation of disinformation has now begun shaping discourse around the Southeast Asian nation’s mid-term elections next month, said the company, Israel-based Cyabra, which uses artificial intelligence to identify fake accounts.</p>

<p>Its findings echo warnings from lawmakers and researchers in the Philippines and indicate increasingly sophisticated and “seamless” manipulation

[DECODED] Canada was heading towards MAGA. Then Trump happened.

https://fed.brid.gy/r/https://www.rappler.com/technology/decoded-canada-heading-towards-making-america-great-again-donald-trump-happened/

<p>MANILA, Philippines – Up until February, it seemed like Canada was well on its way to MAGAfication — or the political shift toward US President Donald Trump’s “Make America Great Again” (MAGA) movement.</p>

<p>The Conservative Party of Canada (CPC), which shares ideological parallels with Trump’s MAGA, had been maintaining its <a href="https://www.ipsos.com/en-ca/news-polls/one-half-of-canadians-want-federal-election-in-2023">lead in polls</a> over the incumbent Liberal Party (LPC) following the 2021 federal election. However, there’s one factor that the CPC didn’t see coming: Trump himself.</p>

<p>Trump’s imposition of a <a href="https://www.rappler.com/business/trump-tariffs-threaten-derail-canada-economic-recovery/">25% tariff on imports</a>, as well as his <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/czx82j5wd8vo">threats to annex Canada</a>, have inflamed <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/02/26/world/canada/canadian-flag-trump.html">Canadian nationalism</a> and derailed the CPC’s momentum. <a href="https://www.ipsos.com/en-ca/liberals-take-lead-first-time-since-2021">An IPSOS survey</a> released in February showed that the incumbent Liberals had gained a two-point lead over the CPC — their first good number since 2021. This further grew into a <a href="https://www.ipsos.com/en-ca/carney-led-liberals-expand-lead-over-stagnant-conservatives-and-weak-ndp">six-point lead</a> in a subsequent poll released in March, with the LPC at 42% and the CPC at 36%.</p>

[DECODED] How online supporters made a victim of Duterte after ICC arrest

https://fed.brid.gy/r/https://www.rappler.com/technology/decoded-how-online-supporters-made-victim-rodrigo-duterte-icc-arrest/

<p>MANILA, Philippines – The Philippines yet again made history when former president Rodrigo Duterte was arrested on Tuesday, March 11, over a warrant issued by the International Criminal Court (ICC), which charged him with alleged crimes against humanity.</p>

<p>It was a highly charged moment for Filipinos. <a href="https://www.rappler.com/philippines/filipinos-online-reaction-rodrigo-duterte-arrest-march-2025/">Users online</a> marked Tuesday as a “day of reckoning” and justice for the estimated 30,000 Filipinos killed in Duterte’s drug war when he was Davao City mayor and president. <a href="https://www.rappler.com/philippines/reactions-statements-politicians-rodrigo-duterte-arrest-icc-case/">Politicians critical of Duterte</a> said it was a victory for accountability.  <a href="https://www.rappler.com/philippines/drug-war-victims-families-statements-reactions-rodrigo-duterte-icc-arrest/">Families of those killed in the drug war </a>welcomed his arrest, too, and hoped it was a step towards justice for the victims.</p>

<p>But according to Duterte’s <a href="https://www.rappler.com/newsbreak/in-depth/decoded-duterte-family-social-media-machinery/">robust social media army,</a> the real victim was the former president, who now has to face the ICC over an anti-drug war campaign that they claim was done out of love for his country.</p>

<p>The Nerve looked into Facebook discussions surrounding former president Duterte since his arrest, and found that his supporter

Malacañang seeks regulatory body for social media to combat online abuse

https://fed.brid.gy/r/https://www.rappler.com/philippines/malacanang-seeks-social-media-regulatory-body-combat-online-abuse/

<p>MANILA, Philippines — The Presidential Communications Office (PCO) acknowledged the need for a regulatory body to combat abuse and disinformation on social media platforms.</p>

<p>In a press conference held on Monday, March 3, PCO Undersecretary and Palace press officer Claire Castro stressed the “timely” need for a separate agency tasked with regulating social media. She cited the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board and Kapisanan ng mga Brodkaster ng Pilipinas as examples of regulatory bodies in the country.</p>

<p>“<em>Kapag po naabuso [ang social media], mayroon po itong effect sa taong maaaring siraan, maaaring ang mga organisasyon, ahensiya na maaaring siraan na walang basehan, malaki pong impact ito lalo na kung paniniwalaan ng mga tao</em>,” she said.</p>

<p>(When social media is abused, it has an effect on people, organizations, and agencies whose reputations can be destroyed without basis, and this can have severe impacts if people believe such lies and attacks.)</p>

<p>Castro also discussed the possibility of working with Congress to pass relevant legislation. Earlier in February, a tricommittee of the House of Representatives held public hearings to identify gaps in legislation aimed to counter disinformation. These hearings were <a href="https://www.rappler.com/philippines/pro-duterte-personalities-snub-house-investigation-fake-news-disinformation-spread/">snubbed by various pro-Duterte personalities</a>, who have since been <a href

The US presidential election campaign further emphasized what we have long suspected: X is a toxic media platform, and its owner, Elon Musk, has leveraged its influence to shape political discourse. This assertion was made in a recent statement released on The Guardian’s website.

Australia passes social media ban for children under 16

As an entrepreneur, I understand the necessity of building a monetization model, and there's nothing wrong with that. But the question is: will BlueSky become another mass product that sooner or later ends up in the hands of another Elon Musk, as happened with Twitter? Therefore, I've decided for myself: BlueSky is interesting, but it's not worth fully switching from Mastodon yet.
