Cyabra Launches Deepfake Detection

Digital Manipulation Around Bolsonaro’s Trial

Cyabra's analysis reveals competing influence campaigns exploiting Bolsonaro’s trial to sway Brazil’s political discourse.

Cyabra’s analysis of Jair Bolsonaro’s trial revealed that nearly one in three accounts in the online conversation were fake. Activity from these profiles surged at decisive moments in the trial, shifting sentiment and amplifying polarized narratives that framed Bolsonaro as either a persecuted leader or a criminal betraying democracy.

The effect was clear. Coordinated posts dominated visibility, pushing extreme narratives to the forefront. By blending in with authentic discourse, these networks deepened polarization and eroded trust in Brazil’s democratic institutions.
