Twitter has reportedly permanently deleted more than 3,400 government-linked accounts. This account is spread across six countries such as Mexico, China, Russia, Tanzania, Uganda and Venezuela.
These Twitter accounts are known to have run by manipulating and spreading buzzer-like campaigns that are pro-government spam in these countries.
In this way, the government often disseminates information to influence the public about a political issue or in a particular direction.
Twitter said of the six countries that use fake accounts to conduct their buzzer campaigns, China has the largest number of fake accounts.
There are more than 2,000 accounts used to spread the Chinese Communist Party's narrative about the treatment of the Uyghur population in Xinjiang.
Twitter also found 112 other accounts linked to a private company called Changyu Culture that is backed by regional authorities in Xinjiang.
The Ugandan government has also used more than 400 fake profiles to become a buzzer in support of the country's current president and his party, the National Resistance Movement (NRM).
Not only that, from the Venezuelan government there are 277 accounts that promote other accounts and hashtags related to the support of certain activities, topics, and statements.
Twitter said there were 276 fake accounts sharing "primarily civic content" to support action by the Mexican government on public health and political parties.
In Tanzania there are 268 accounts used by the government for false reporting of members and supporters of the investigative journalism publication Fichua Tanzania and its founder.
Surprisingly, Twitter only found 66 accounts both fake and genuine linked to Russian operations targeting individuals in Central Africa and Libya.
The social media platform said details about the campaign and associated accounts had been shared with three leading research organizations: the Australian Strategic Policy Institute (ASPI), Cazadores de Fake News and the Stanford Internet Observatory (SIO).
Since mid-October 2018, Twitter has revealed campaigns from 17 countries that published more than 200 million tweets and distributed nine terabytes of media.
