bots, propaganda, elecciones, social media, democraciaResumen
En esta investigación se buscaron estrategias automatizadas de creación o difusión de propaganda electoral en redes sociales durante la campaña presidencial de Chile de 2017. Se recolectaron y analizaron casi 2 millones de tuits sobre la elección o vinculados a alguno de los candidatos o sus campañas; en Facebook, se analizaron 2.927 publicaciones oficiales de los candidatos y sus 453.668 comentarios. Mientras que en Facebook el comportamiento fue relativamente normal, en Twitter se descubrió en primera vuelta que hubo brigadistas digitales que actúan de forma autónoma tratando de crear una ilusión de apoyo en las bases.
