Allan Cheboi, senior investigations manager at Code for Africa, demonstrates the network analysis approach to identify key actors and strategies behind the spread of misinformation on social media, with a focus on crime syndicates and organized crime groups.
Highlighting case studies from the Kenyan elections to activities linked to Russian affiliates in the Sahel region, Cheboi emphasizes the significance of data analysis, forensic research, and the ABC (Actor, Behavior, Content) framework in understanding and combating disinformation. Looking forward, Cheboi discusses the potential of AI in proactive detection and the importance of adapting network analysis to new challenges like video content on platforms such as TikTok.
