Expert Forum (EFOR) has discovered a coordinated network on TikTok spreading conspiracy theories and anti-system messages using the hashtag #ankaversace. This network, identified in February 2025, has generated over 1,100 videos, and in March, TikTok deleted 3,820 associated videos. Although the network was temporarily disrupted, it reactivated in April 2025, before the elections, adding 2,495 new videos with 40 million views. EFOR warns that these networks compromise information integrity and can influence voters.
