Mexican botnet dirty Wars by Erin Gallagher. Chaos Computer Camp 2015

Peñabots


Peñabots have been active in Mexican networks since the 2012
presidential elections. Named after President Enrique Peña Nieto, armies
of bots have become a political weapon to combat protests and attack
critics of the Mexican government online. Bots are waging a dirty war in
Mexican social media. They are weaponized censors that silence dissent
and cover up crimes.
