Twitter announced Thursday it had removed more than 2,000 accounts linked to the Chinese Communist Party that sought to downplay and deflect discussion of the human rights abuses being perpetrated against the Uyghur population in Xinjiang. Earlier this week, Facebook detailed an influence operation on its platform in which Chinese state employees created a fake Swiss biologist—“Wilson Edwards”—who sought to discredit efforts to investigate the origins of COVID-19.
