🚨NEW INVESTIGATION: A Fortune 500 company reportedly cancelled a Hindu American Foundation training session after employees circulated its Wikipedia page. That page tells readers HAF aligns with Hindu nationalism, threatens academic freedom, and has been accused of acting as a foreign agent. We traced who built that narrative. The same handful of accounts kept appearing across HAF, its critics, activist groups, and key public figures—building an interconnected narrative that now feeds Google and AI systems. Full investigation in thread. Receipts 👇

NEW INVESTIGATION: New York Times Bestselling author and journalist Max Lugavere has endured a sustained reputation attack on Wikipedia. In an interview, Max tells NPOV's Ashley Rindsberg how the Wikipedia attack damaged his reputation and turned his life's work—researching ways to prevent the dementia that took his mother's life—into malicious accusations. NPOV's investigation reveals a deeply coordinated network of editors called "the Skeptics" that works on Wikipedia as a coordinated editing group known as Guerrilla Skeptics on Wikipedia (GSOW). + The opening of the Wikipedia entry falsely labels Max an "anti-vegan activist." This now appears prominently on Google searches on Max. + Carefully curated film reviews are used to indirectly accuse Max of attempting to profit from his mother's disease and tragic death. + The key elements of the attack rely on articles written by two members of a center at McGill University known as the Office for Science and Society (OSS). + The main editor on Max's entry adds content from OSS figures, whose own entries on Wikipedia were created and/or currently controlled by GSOW editor Robincantin. + Susan Gerbic, a contributor to Skeptical Inquirer magazine and a fellow of the NGO that owns the magazine, has identified one Robin Cantin as "my editor." + Gerbic is founder of the Guerrilla Skeptics on Wikipedia project.
