Google's Q4 2025 Propaganda Takedown

Google's Threat Analysis Group (TAG) has released its Q4 2025 bulletin detailing the influence operations it removed from its platforms. This report focuses on coordinated campaigns aiming to manipulate public opinion, spread disinformation, and interfere with political processes. The report highlights the actors involved, the tactics employed, and the scale of the operations.

• Google's policing is self-serving: The report exists to demonstrate Google's commitment to platform integrity, and therefore its suitability to continued operation.
• Attribution is a minefield: Determining the origin and motivations of these operations is rarely straightforward, meaning any conclusions should be regarded with caution.
• This is an arms race: The actors Google is fighting are persistent. Expect these operations to continue evolving and becoming more sophisticated.
