Negli ultimi mesi, gli amministratori di Facebook sono dovuto intervenire migliaia di volte a settimana per rimuovere i profili falsi. Basta una giornata di lavoro per creare una rete di finti scienziati che lavorino, per esempio, sulle cellule staminali, spiegano. E in questo modo si può arrivare a parassitare le informazioni messe in rete dai veri scienziati, per i loro veri amici. Per esempio, sospettano su Nature, dietro potrebbero esserci associazioni contrarie alla ricerca sulle staminali. I giornalisti di Nature hanno anche provato a contattare gli impostori, attraverso i loro profili fake, ma questi sono stati rimossi subito dopo. Comunque, pare che non succeda solo agli scienziati: diversi articoli raccontano storie simili: se dovesse succedere anche a voi, segnalatelo. [...]
