The Department of Defense has awarded a contract to a tech firm run by Lisa Kaplan, a “disinformation” researcher who praised Twitter’s decision to block the Hunter Biden laptop story in 2020.
Kaplan, who said that in censoring the laptop story, Twitter had decided “to address disinformation, making it so that people can’t share a link known to be false,” was awarded a $72,321 contract from the Pentagon for access to a service that tracks foreign disinformation. FILE – The Pentagon is seen from Air Force One as it flies over Washington, March 2, 2022. The FBI wants to question a 21-year-old member of the Massachusetts Air National Guard in connection with the disclosure of highly classified military documents on the Ukraine war, two people familiar with the investigation said Thursday, April 13, 2023.
This followed a $49,328 contract to Kaplan’s firm in 2021 to build a machine learning tool to “mitigate” disinformation.
