Cybertrooper Activity In The State Elections

A study of online behaviour during the recent state elections provided interesting insight into how both the Pakatan-Barisan and Perikatan coalitions used cybertroopers to sway voters. We discuss the findings and what they might say about how online conversations are shaping our political landscape - and more crucially, who people might vote for.
