       | Individuals wearing fatigues sitting moderating social media all
       | night long will be soon forgotten. Like the horse driven plow.
       | The idea of mechanized disinformation as a trend moving forward
       | seems likely. The results of planting personnel into
       | social/familial groups as counter insurgence have been
       | inefficient. this is due to the human condition and our ability
       | to forget key fragments of an operation protocol that is so
       | personalized. Deep undercover agents in the past proved to be
       | high risk for defecting. It is perhaps most efficient in terms of
       | delays to produce systems such as counterfeit blockchain
       | technologies, automated subversion of academic journalism, ect.
       | PsyOPs is really a long term tool beyond elected governments and
       | generations of people. It would involve hardware specifications
       | in manufacturing and global natural resource management schemes.
