Publisher(s): Routledge
Publication Year: 2020

How has cyberspace affected information warfare and influence operations? In this chapter, CSS’ Miguel Gomez notes that the domain changes the form but not the nature of both. He argues that cyberspace enables the efficient exploitation of cognitive biases. While this is a valid cause for concern given recent developments, the chapter goes on to argue that countermeasures may be implemented on information platforms to temper the effects of such biases.
