An (online) storm in a Philippine rainforest
A nature reserve in the Philippines has become the unlikely target on a smear campaign on social media. Who is behind it?
What do Hollywood legend Leo DiCaprio, Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg, and English zoologist Jane Goodall have in common? They have all taken to social media to call for the protection of the Masungi Georeserve, a popular ecotourism destination in the Philippines.
This comes after the Philippine government proposed scrapping a contract with the reserve that handed it control over 2,700 hectares of land for reforestation purposes.
As public debate rages on, 成人快手 Trending has uncovered evidence of an online disinformation campaign targeting the nature reserve鈥檚 keepers. But who is the puppet master pulling the strings from the shadows? And have they done enough to hide their trail?
