PRESERVING DEMOCRACY AND PUBLIC HEALTH IN THE (DIS)INFORMATION AGE (VIRTUAL)
The 2016 presidential election highlighted the ability of Russian intelligence to exploit social media to target and manipulate the American public. As the county prepares for another election amidst a global pandemic and increased social unrest, former FBI counterintelligence agent Asha Rangappa explains how interference by foreign powers puts all citizens at risk. Russia has adapted Cold War tactics for the Digital Age, and the growing political fragmentation in America facilitates its efforts. These threats have serious implications for the future of democracy and public health.
