Comment on Vote manipulation bots using sh.itjust.works?
FundMECFSResearch@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 days agoWow that looks productive. I’m assuming you can’t share the methodology for linking these accounts to help combat this stuff but I’m very curious if that isn’t an issue.

essentially start by identifying the accounts posting links to the domain in question, then analyze the voting behavior of the accounts upvoting these posts. you can start by sorting out accounts that have legitimate activity and then narrow it down further and find common patterns that only apply to these accounts.
most of them were also created in similar time frames.
