Mark Zuckerberg was getting all the attention Tuesda—and he did reveal five surprising things in his testimony before the U.S. Senate.
At the same time, however, Reddit's CEO offered to let the world see more than 900 Russian linked accounts that have been banned during an internal investigation on propaganda from 2015 until the end of 2017.
Some had catchy names like u/magaing4trump, u/Ten_GOP, and u/WhatImDoindHere.
You can see the list of Russia linked banned Reddit accounts here.
Says Reddit CEO Steve Huffman:
"We have decided to keep them visible for now, but after a period of time the accounts and their content will be removed from Reddit. We are doing this to allow moderators, investigators, and all of you to see their account histories for yourselves.
We still have a lot of room to improve, and we intend to remain vigilant. Over the past several months, our teams have evaluated our site-wide protections against fraud and abuse to see where we can make those improvements. But I am pleased to say that these investigations have shown that the efforts of our Trust & Safety and Anti-Evil teams are working."
The "Anti-Evil" team? I can just imagine how that group starts their meeting. "Okay, team, the first agenda item today is to define evil... who wants to go first?"
