Devil is in Details

 Astonishingly particularly on Twitter as many of you have witnessed, accounts who break news on or speak on (favorable or not) the duplicit duo are being silenced, banned and permenantly suspended with no warning or recourse option. Not only that, we are a testament that real, verifiable businesses associated with accounts discussing H&M are also taken down. Yes, entire innocent networks are being algorithmically banned just by way of being identified in a social media network. It happened to @Barkjack. Mass reporting triggers the ban; it's almost impossible to reverse as the amount of appeals, bans and reports far outnumber human 'Twitter Police' to review and potentially overturn them. Due to the sheer volume of reports, Twitter somewhat understandably utilizes algorithms, keywords, etc, to aid in regulation of user activity on the platform. 

Our technical forensics team uncovered how these social network bans happen. Using simple, free online programs, one can analyze a social media network. This means, programs can tell you who your account interacts with the most. Easy to do. Then, these accounts that are identified in a network are mass reported by hundreds of accounts (real and fake bots) and thus it triggers a ban. 

Twitter Accounts in general, are analyzed based on a spam scoring system. Accounts more likely to be considered spam could have low follower count, long numbers in a name, brand new accounts and accounts without profile photos. In fact, we identified a great number of these accounts to belong to a small handful of IPs, indicating several accounts are run by a few people in the "Sussex Squad". We have reported extensively on this after analyzing the network ourselves forensically.  Technical evidence shows a huge network of hundreds of accounts run by a handful of people. While the origin of the IP is difficult to pin down, many of these accounts are safely assumed to be employed by their PR team. How do we deduce that? It is a popular PR tactic for celebrities in the social media age and this is not new or revolutionary. Typically PR companies are armed with handfuls of social accounts to drum up support, recognition, RTs or whatever attention is sought. It is normal, but what is not normal about this situation is the sheer volume of propaganda being churned out in false support of the pair. Sometimes, real businesses maintain small Twitter accounts and legitimately start out with low follower count. This does not mean all accounts with low follower account or without human pictures in the profiles are all considered spam. Many real businesses who were identified in our social network were erroneously classified as spam just by misfortune of having relatively new accounts with not more than a few hundred followers and products for the profile photo. Their websites and online stores confirm they are real, legitimate businesses; unfortunately due to the spam classification system and being a part of our close network, they were also permanently banned -- yes, literally for no reason at all other than we interacted with them a lot -- and we are at times rightfully critical of the behaviours of Harry and Meghan. 

Here's the exclusive we have: 

No, it isn't the Oprah interview that will be the total downfall of H&M. Truth is, they are playing with hot, bot fire in constantly using their misleading online infantry to fuel divisive, racist narratives online. This has gotten totally out of control and is being looked at. 

There have been recent, new sit downs inside Palace walls about the implications of this social media set up. It is not going un-noticed by the Palace and they are completely aware of this situation. It has reached a fever pitch amid the recent Caribbean Royal Tour whereby, many accounts controlled by the same IP are rallying to create a hostile narrative toward the Royal Family. 

Finally, we have been contacted by real, verifiable people and organizations who are constantly being silenced or unjustifiably banned who are potentially seeking legal retribution against the pair's PR firm, using the technical data as proof that the overwhelming onslaught of pro-sussex material and harassment stems from a very small handful of pro-sussex IP addresses. It's looking like more legal drama in the near future and potential crisis intervention actions by the Palace in the days coming. 

As to what will be DONE about this remains to be seen...
