Facebook said Tuesday it pulled down two networks of fake accounts that targeted the US ahead of the presidential election but the campaigns were small and caught early.
The social network’s latest account takedowns come after the FBI said last week that Russia and Iran had obtained voter registration data to meddle in the upcoming US elections. Facebook pulled down the accounts because the people behind them tried to mislead others about their identity and purpose.
