Ongoing AMA Hey, Reddit India. We are the team behind the Tek Fog investigation, which uncovered the BJP-affiliated app for social media manipulation. ASK US ANYTHING (self.india)

Last week, The Wire revealed the existence of a highly sophisticated secret app called 'Tek Fog', used by cyber troops affiliated with India's ruling party to hijack major social media and encrypted messaging platforms. The 20-month-long investigation shows how the app automates hate and targeted harassment, spreads propaganda and is a marriage of big tech and dirty politics.

Read all the three parts of the investigation here -https://thewire.in/tekfog/en/1.htmlhttps://thewire.in/tekfog/en/2.htmlhttps://thewire.in/tekfog/en/3.html

Thanks for joining us on this AMA. You can ask the technical question about Tek Fog to me (/u/onosmosis) and Ayushman (/u/sourcesofx47). Questions about the editorial decisions, The Wire and other things like Pegasus investigation can be directed towards Siddharth Varadarajan (/u/Key_Information7079).

We hope to answer as many questions that you might have. In case you like our work, please share the articles with your friends and family and consider supporting The Wire at https://support.thewire.in
