Ļoti vērtīga saruna ar @KAS_Baltic vadītāju Baltijas valstīs @OliverMorwinsky un @SpelmaneUna par pieaugošajiem dezinformācijas un ārvalstu iejaukšanās draudiem Eiropā kopumā un arī tieši Latvijā. Apspriedām sociālo platformu pieaugošo nozīmi politiskajos procesos un ar to saistītos riskus vēlēšanu drošībai. Kā vairot mūsu noturību pret meliem un maldiem paliek aktuāls jautājums arī darbam nākamajā gadā.
