Technology is breaking politicswhat can be done about it?Artificially intelligent bot accounts attack politicians and public figures on social media. Conspiracy theorists publish junk news sites to promote their outlandish beliefs. Campaigners create fake dating profiles to attract young voters. We live in a world of technologies that misdirect our attention, poison our political conversations, and jeopardize our democracies. With massive amounts of social media and public polling data, and indepth interviews with political consultants, bot writers, and journalists, Philip N. Howard offers ways to take these lie machines apart.Lie Machines is full of riveting behindthescenes stories from the worlds biggest and most damagingly successful misinformation initiativesincluding those used in Brexit and U.S. elections. Howard not only shows how these campaigns evolved from older propaganda operations but also exposes their new powers, gives us insight into their effectiveness, and explains how to shut them down.
