    this not a news, we know where they live, how much they get, addresses, pictures of them,

    whats on the paid trolls agenda today ?

    according the East European experts the main topics for Kremlin trolls :

    1) the refuges will destroy EU
    2) Syria, "Putin vs, IS", weak Obama
    3) crisis of the EU: UK leaves EU, Bumish Greece , USA vs EU
    4) Weak Obama
    5) "Gay mafia "vs Christian values

    do you agree with my top-5? what do you think what is the main topics for Kremlin trolls?

    What a nonsense! :grin: Looking at your list, one may think that Kremlin trolls are sitting in the majority of Austrian and German newspapers and spread the terrible news about refugees.

    Sorry, I do not see anything in the link stating stating that Kremlin trolls are working in German or Austrian newspapers. By the way, there are many Obama trolls working in Internet as well. And there are a lot of US propaganda all over the Internet.

    "Who was behind all of this? When I stumbled on it last fall, I had an idea. I was already investigating a shadowy organization in St. Petersburg, Russia, that spreads false information on the Internet. It has gone by a few names, but I will refer to it by its best known: the Internet Research Agency. The agency had become known for employing hundreds of Russians to post pro-Kremlin propaganda online under fake identities, including on Twitter, in order to create the illusion of a massive army of supporters; it has often been called a “troll farm.” The more I investigated this group, the more links I discovered between it and the hoaxes. In April, I went to St. Petersburg to learn more about the agency and its brand of information warfare, which it has aggressively deployed against political opponents at home, Russia’s perceived enemies abroad and, more recently, me."

    "Every day at the Internet Research Agency was essentially the same, Savchuk told me. The first thing employees did upon arriving at their desks was to switch on an Internet proxy service, which hid their I.P. addresses from the places they posted; those digital addresses can sometimes be used to reveal the real identity of the poster. Savchuk would be given a list of the opinions she was responsible for promulgating that day. Workers received a constant stream of “technical tasks” — point-by-point exegeses of the themes they were to address, all pegged to the latest news. Ukraine was always a major topic, because of the civil war there between Russian-backed separatists and the Ukrainian Army; Savchuk and her co-workers would post comments that disparaged the Ukrainian president, Petro Poroshenko, and highlighted Ukrainian Army atrocities. Russian domestic affairs were also a major topic. Last year, after a financial crisis hit Russia and the ruble collapsed, the professional trolls left optimistic posts about the pace of recovery. Savchuk also says that in March, after the opposition leader Boris Nemtsov was murdered, she and her entire team were moved to the department that left comments on the websites of Russian news outlets and ordered to suggest that the opposition itself had set up the murder."

    "The Internet still remains the one medium where the opposition can reliably get its message out. But their message is now surrounded by so much garbage from trolls that readers can become resistant before the message even gets to them. During the protests, a favorite tactic of the opposition was making anti-Putin hashtags trend on Twitter. Today, waves of trolls and bots regularly promote pro-Putin hashtags. What once was an exhilarating act of popular defiance now feels empty. “It kind of discredited the idea of political hashtags,” says Ilya Klishin, the web editor for the independent television station TV Rain who, in 2011, created the Facebook page for the antigovernment protests."

    Have to love the totally non-credible pro-russian/pro-iranian trolls; first they lie and deny it exists, then when exposed as frauds its excuses and justifications, just pathetic.

    i personally have no proof that trolls exist, do you have some? Western Media, on the other hand, has always proven to be telling lies.
