How X users can earn thousands from US election misinformation and AI images




With less than a week left for the US presidential polls, some users on X who regularly post election misinformation, AI-generated images, and conspiracy theories said that they are being paid “thousands of dollars” by the platform, BBC reported.

In its report, BBC claimed to have identified networks of several X handles that are actively engaged in spreading false information regarding the US elections. Some users alleged that earnings come from their own content while a couple of hundred to thousands of dollars are a result of re-sharing the same.

These users also coordinate by sharing each other’s posts in group chats and forums, with one of them saying to BBC that it is a “way of trying to help each other out”. (BBC)
