@UlliEcker @ajungherr @Sacha_Altay @lorenz_spreen @AusElectoralCom 🌏 Bottom line: Australian democracy is resilient, but even high trust can be undermined by disinfo. This calls for balanced, evidence-based responses—fighting disinformation while safeguarding free political expression. See also our discussion paper: https://t.co/lkXcWOCTeP 5/5

@UlliEcker @ajungherr @Sacha_Altay @lorenz_spreen @AusElectoralCom 🔍 Findings: Disinformation slightly reduces trust in the AEC, but refutations help mitigate the damage. However, preemptive AEC communications didn’t boost trust further, suggesting high baseline trust acts as a ceiling. #ElectoralIntegrity #Disinformation

What do we need to know before we boldly venture forth and solve the problem of disinformation?

In a new article, I pose questions those asking for greater control of digital communication spaces by corporations, experts, and governments should answer.
