Unsurprising
I am shocked! The CIA and the FBI? The bastions of liberty and justice?
Typical Tuesday…
This is coming from Glenn Greenwald, a known Putin shill, so all this could mean is the efforts to maintain truth on Wikipedia, since Ruzzia and her allies worldwide (including the American Republican party, or at least the ‘MAGA’ portion) constantly seek to obfuscate the truth and alter articles critical of them, their positions, their narratives.
Now I’m not saying there isn’t a shred of truth, there usually is with shills like Greenwald, so I’m sure the US and their allies are actively involved in doing something similar, but nobody lies like the current Ruzzian regime and their allies, their people are so misinformed and propagandized that they wouldn’t know the truth if it smacked them over the head.
Some sources to back up my point:

“Glenn Greenwald, a known Putin shill”
A yes, Snowden and everyone involved are simply Russian shills!
Thank you for the sources. Greenwald is so far right and has gone so far off the deep end of conspiracy theory stuff that it really doesn’t make sense to believe anything he says.
he’s a journalist. if you don’t like what he prints, you might ask yourself why.
Ok.
To assume the truth of something only based on profession or historical accomplishments is an appeal to authority fallacy.
Done.
“He’s a journalist!” So?
“He once exposed this great story!” So?
Neither are actual arguments of the truth of current statements.
Wow so both Ruzzia and Amerikkka edit Wikipedia for propaganda purposes. 🤯
American intelligence agencies are just fighting back with truth not propaganda 😉
This might be true, but I will take anything that comes from Larry Sanger with a pinch of salt. Dude has been pretty much exclusively hanging out with right wing nutjobs since 2020 and was at one point spreading misinformation against Covid-19 vaccines.
I hadn’t heard this so I did a search to see what you were talking about. One of the first things that comes up is a quote from this guy whining that he doesn’t trust Wikipedia anymore because they don’t allow Daily Mail or Fox News as sources of reliable information. You know, the gossip rag Daily Mail that posts anything “sources say” for clicks, and the same Fox News that was found to be flat out lying to its viewers on a number of sociopolitical issues. What a putz.
