The FT’s analysis finds a growing volume of that misinformation is coming not from Russia or China, but the United States.

      I’ve got family that lives on an island. They’ve been holding onto twitter as the only way to get ferry updates.

      I only recently found out, so have been switching the family (and slowly other islanders) to Nitter to follow that single account.
