Facebook Hires Atlantic Council Senior Fellow and Former NATO Press Officer

Facebook Government

Facebook hired former NATO press officer, current senior fellow at the Atlantic Coucil, and current Russiagater Ben Nimmo to be part of their intelligence team:

Next week, I’m starting at Facebook, where I’ll be helping to lead global threat intelligence strategy against influence operations.

I’m very excited to join one of the best IO teams in the world to study, catch and get ahead of the known players and emerging threats.

Nimmo’s pro-war career is riddled with falsely labeling anti-establishment groups and individuals as “Russian bots”, particularly when they speak out against the interests of government intelligence agencies.

Totally unrelated, Facebook announced their partnership with the Atlantic Council about three years prior in May of 2018.
