Information security specialist Samvel Martirosyan shared a video about what to do on social networks when there are shootings at the border.
“We must always remember that the situation in Azerbaijan is such that there is no free press, especially on military issues. There is just control, they cannot write whatever they want. “If you read something in the Azerbaijani news related to the hostilities, it should be understood that it is not the journalist’s word, you are reading what was said by someone from the military intelligence or propaganda department, copied by a journalist,” he said. .
Samvel Martirosyan urges not to spread such information, especially with references. Even if you write that they have published nonsense and if a link is given, the Facebook understands that it is a “good” source and starts to show more users.
According to the expert, one should not trust and believe in many Armenian pages and news sites, as they can also be pages run by Azerbaijan. You need to follow the sites that you really know and know that the editorial office, for example, is in Yerevan, you can even go and find it.
“At the moment, Azeris are activating hacked Armenian Facebook accounts. Unfortunately, they have accounts of hundreds, thousands of Armenians, which they have broken and kept in their hands. At such moments, they wake up and start writing alarming things in the comments, saying that we have more victims, etc. Note that if someone writes such things in the comments, it does not mean at all that it is a person who you think writes himself. One should be very careful with such comments about writers,” Samvel Martirosyan says.
He also notes that in such cases, Azerbaijani hackers fill different pages and start leaving comments, and there is no need to fight with them, explain anything for hours, etc., this is done under the page of the spokesman of the Ministry of Defense as well.
Samvel Martirosyan advises that instead of spreading such comments, it is better, for example, to open a page on Twitter and spread Armenian information.
