PHOENIX - Facebook, Twitter and other social media platforms are battling to remove Russian disinformation accounts targeting Ukrainians, and experts at Arizona State say it's something they're watching closely.They want those scrolling online to be on the lookout for false information being spread on social media and websites.With online news spreading so quickly over the war, and things changing by the minute, experts say it's hard to really get a good grasp of everything that's happening, but they want to warn you that disinformation is spreading and to only use reliable resources before reading or sharing them."This kind of disinformation can be a useful weapon," says Dr. Jacob Lassin with Arizona State.Facebook, Twitter, Apple and other tech companies are under increasing pressure to crack down on disinformation being spread online, mainly from Russian hackers, they say, about the war in Ukraine.Lassin says with digital devices making information accessible in the palm of a hand, it’s also made spreading disinformation worse, too."What’s really important is that people take the time to look at the source to figure out kind of where things are coming from," Lassin advised.Facebook’s parent company Meta said on Monday it has caught dozens of fake, pro-Russian accounts, groups and pages across its platforms that are trying to spread anti-Ukrainian propaganda.
