How Google Ads Are Funding Disinformation Campaigns in India

In August 2022, four Muslim men were arrested after they were accused of causing deadly floods that hit the north-east Indian state of Assam.

A barrage of comments on social media claimed that they were waging “flood jihad” in the Hindu-majority city of Silchar by deliberately damaging flood defences, but the police found no proof of this. Investigations by the BBC and Indian fact-checking outlet Alt News also found these claims to be false at the time. (Disclaimer: this author used to work for Alt News.)

Yet, at least four websites not only continue to carry stories about the debunked conspiracy theory, but also to profit from them through advertisements placed on those articles. Through Google’s Adsense programme, these online publishers are estimated to earn $10-$20 for every 1,000 views on these stories – even while Google has actively promoted its efforts to fight online disinformation and a policy against hateful conduct.

¿Qué vende este hombre? – Cartier compró algunos, ¿tú también? | Barbara Crane Navarro

Pedro Pérez Miranda, también conocido como “Peter Ferrari”

¡Cualquiera que esté pensando en comprar o usar oro debería ver el episodio “Dirty Gold” de la extraordinaria serie de antología documental de Netflix, “Dirty Money”! ¡Es una versión real de “Narcos”!

Ferrari fue uno de los principales culpables involucrados en un esquema monumental para contrabandear oro extraído ilegalmente de Perú a Miami, un punto focal para el comercio de oro y joyería, así como para el lavado de dinero.

Las empresas de joyas, relojes y accesorios de oro como Cartier no solo compraban sin darse cuenta este oro ilegal, sino que Apple lo compraba para sus teléfonos y los fabricantes de automóviles para sus productos electrónicos. ¿El dinero que gastó en algo que compró podría subsidiar el yate o los autos de Ferrari?

¿Ferrari recibió sin darse cuenta su contribución a sus actividades ilícitos y pasatiempos?

Dirty Gold” de Netflix rastrea el funcionamiento oculto del nebuloso comercio de oro de Miami, que ayuda a poderosos grupos del crimen organizado en América Latina a lavar sus ganancias ilegales (audio disponible en español).

El Miami Herald hizo una extensa investigación de la industria internacional de las drogas que tituló “Cómo los capos de la droga ganan miles de millones con el contrabando de oro a Miami para sus joyas y teléfonos”.

“Gran parte del oro que se comercia en el mundo está manchado de sangre y de violaciones a los derechos humanos”, dijo Julián Bernardo González…
