Throwing Spaghetti, Seeing What Sticks
This study examines the strategic exploitation of social media platforms, particularly Facebook, for information operations that extend beyond traditional disinformation. These operations employ a range of misleading content and tactics to maximize reach and influence, compromising the integrity of digital spaces. Using a mixed-methods approach grounded in the theoretical framework of strategic information operations, the study analyzes the inter…
Programmed visibility. Tax reform legitimacy between strategic opacity and platform circulation
Purpose This paper examines how the legitimacy of global tax governance emerges at the intersection of technocratic programmes (allocation formulas, transfer pricing rules, tariff schedules) and digital programmes (platform algorithms, engagement optimisation). We investigate why structurally similar governance reforms produce radically different visibility patterns on social media. We propose that these visibility patterns act as the empirically…
Navigating the Gray
This study investigates the nexus between the attention economy and digital disinformation on TikTok, drawing from Esposito's adaptation of Luhmann’s system theory to the digital age and Swartz's exploration of the socio-economic layers of digital transactions. It zeroes in on cryptocurrency scams as a case study to illuminate how disinformation is propagated for economic gain, using TikTok's API for comprehensive analysis. The research employs a…
Modeling Persuasion in Social Media
This paper introduces a theoretical model that integrates insights from sociocybernetics and persuasive technology to deepen the understanding of content dissemination and manipulation within social media platforms. Algorithms, while central to curating content and guiding user engagement, are vulnerable to exploitation by external actors with differing objectives. The study examines how recommendation algorithms operate as active agents in commu…
Exploring the Dark Side of Cryptocurrencies on Facebook and Telegram
The rise of blockchain and cryptocurrencies come with the promise of decentralizing transactions and disrupting the power of market intermediaries. Despite these promises, scholars argue that the risks associated with cryptocurrencies are still unclear. Some preliminary works investigate the manipulative role played by the circulation of problematic content on platforms such as Reddit, Twitter, Discord, or Telegram. Nonetheless, the research stil…
Pandemic Politics
One of the effects of the continuing COVID-19 pandemic has been to further accelerate the incorporation of social media activities into political and electoral campaigning. Especially as a result of lockdowns and other restrictions to offline public life, overall social media use has increased in many countries; health concerns have severely curtailed conventional in-person political campaigning activities, from doorknocking to mass rallies (even…
