On Twitter, the spread of deceptive websites was driven by accounts that have been verified as real but tweet out content from other sites that repeatedly post false or misleading information. This phenomenon was at an “all-time high” in the final quarter of last year, when content from those sites was tweeted out 47 million times. “Deceptive sites have increased their reach at a faster rate than other web content,” the research found.
On Facebook, the researchers found that interactions with deceptive sites in 2020 was more than twice as high as in the run-up to the 2016 election. This included 1.2 billion interactions with deceptive sites in the final quarter of last year.
