It wouldn't be difficult to include a little "" icon on each post that, when hovered, shows probable location or the creation origin. It's true that VPN's will often muddy this info, and even things like phone number confirmation for 2FA or billing address for Verified badges can't be 100% reliable... but it shouldn't be too difficult to say in those cases "User likely masking location" if the pattern is detected.

Yes, X is the new /pol.

How many of these accounts are Russian? I bet hardly any. My money is mostly from a small country in the middle east.

How much money are we talking?

russians been interfering with other countries through all possible channels for decades.

They integrated with every single Ukrainian election (including the most recent one in 2019), they tried hijacking (with various success) elections in Romania, Moldova, Lithuania, Czech Republic, Estonia, etc..

This includes radio, tv, printed periodics, social networks, even popular music, movies, tv series and books...

So how much are you willing to bet that this time it's definitely not russians?
