Spam as Activist Propaganda

Taustatiedot
Activists on TikTok are fighting back against Texas' new restrictive abortion law with spam.

Sean Black, who goes by @black_madness21 on TikTok, created a bot that makes it easy to submit fake tips to a "whistleblower" website created by the anti-abortion Texas Right to Life group.

As of Wednesday, it's now illegal for anyone in Texas to get an abortion after about six weeks of pregnancy, and anyone who helps a person get such an abortion — including doctors and even someone who drives a person to a clinic — could be sued for thousands of dollars. The "Pro Life Whistle Blower" website enables residents to report people for potential violations of the law.
