- Abstract
Today's unexceptional and copious use of online social networks (OSN) as a place to gather information or interact with each other is globally accepted. However, there are frequently attemps to manipulate these discussions and information with partial algorithmized machines. In this paper we will assess the potential risks that may arouses from this sort of manipulation for the political sector in OSN's and beyond. We focus on the threats and risks for different (political) user groups and the socio economic impact of these manipulations and analyse the methodes that are used to influence users and lead to viral dispersal in both, the internal network and common media.
