Coordinated Pro-Russian Propaganda Network Targeting ActivityPub and ATProto Services
> Since 15 September, #IFTAS has been tracking a coordinated network of accounts operating across #Mastodon.
> These accounts are engaged in a high-volume #propaganda campaign, promoting pro-Russian narratives and linking to #Telegram channels associated with known state-aligned #disinformation operations.
> We became aware of a related investigation by the #Antibot4Navalny research team that observed these accounts bridging to #Bluesky, and we have since collaborated to enhance our investigations and share our findings.
> Their public post provides further context.

I'm sad to see IFTAS Connect shutting down. #IFTAS offered a community platform for server admins and moderators, committed to keeping the #fediverse safe.
Thanks everyone at @iftas for your hard work. 🫶
