💨 Abstract

A sophisticated network of fake social media accounts, mostly praising former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte and lambasting the International Criminal Court, was found to have been involved in a "deliberate, organized" campaign on platform X. Around a third of accounts discussing Duterte's arrest were fake, according to Israel-based tech firm Cyabra. The fake accounts acted with sophistication and blended seamlessly into discussions, potentially reaching millions of views.
