HBO Max New Releases: October 2021

https://ift.tt/39ZMSFm

The fall is usually the domain of television. September and October are the months in which networks (and increasingly some streamers) debut all their new series. With its list of new releases for October 2021, however, HBO Max has decided that fall works just fine for new movies as well.

HBO Max’s new offerings this month are highlighted by two enormous Warner Bros. film releases. The Sopranos prequel The Many Saints of Newark opens things up on Oct. 1. The movie is getting a theatrical release as well but you can certainly just watch it via streaming to make Sopranos creator and film purist David Chase mad. Next up is the sprawling sci-fi epic Dune on Oct. 22. It’s long been thought that a faithful and suitably enormous Dune adaptation was impossible. Now it’s almost time to see if director Denis Villenueve pulled it off.

Even if the movies are the big blockbusters here, HBO Max isn’t letting its TV offerings go to waste. Arguably HBO’s biggest running drama, Succession, returns for a long-awaited third season on Oct. 17. Also mixed in to the streamer’s TV offerings are docuseries like 15 Minutes of Shame (Oct. 7) and What Happened, Brittany Murphy? (Oct. 15).

October will also be a good month for movie fans looking to check out some recent heavy hitters without buying a ticket. It: Chapter Two (Oct. 10), The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It (Oct. 21), and In the Heights (Oct. 28) all arrive this month.

Februar ist nicht Dezember, aber versprochen ist versprochen: Auch 2019 soll nicht leer ausgehen, nicht unsortiert rumliegen, obwohl Brennen Muss Die Liste! weiterhin auf Eis liegt und ich einen Großteil des Jahres, bis in den Winter hinein um genau zu sein, in einem Pop-Paralleluniversum voller Masken verbracht, ergo von der Gegenwart kaum mehr als ein paar Abende draußen, neues Slipknot-Geknüppel und zugesteckte, aber steckengelassene Tipps mitgekriegt habe. Die letzten Wochen des alten Jahres habe ich folglich eingekuschelt in Streams verbracht, von auf die hohe Kante gepackten Alben genascht, die ein oder andere Rezension ausgegraben und so langsam aufgearbeitet, was hinter meinem Rücken veröffentlicht wurde. EPs (sowieso meist eher Kür als Pflicht, immer dann gern genommen, wenn sich das Jahr über was angesammelt hat) und Musikvideos (die ich jetzt selbst nur via Listen gesichtet habe, hier also nur eine Zusammenfassung von Pitchfork/Visions/Stereogum geben könnte) erspare ich uns allen, stattdessen gibt es die beiden Königinnenkategorien Album und Song, vorbereitet von den spaßig-kontingenten Konzerten des Jahres. Die lassen sich schwer nacharbeiten, was gut ist, weil die Liste so schnell beisammen war, aber auch schade, weil ich im Maskendelirium doch den ein oder anderen guten Abend verpasst habe. Schmälern soll das keinesfalls die sieben unten notierten Erlebnisse, von denen ich nun aber auch keinem eine übergeorndete Aussage über das Pop-Jahr 2019 zumuten würde. Mehr dazu an anderer Stelle.

Behemoth, 23.01.2019, Turbinenhalle Oberhausen

Black Metal, die eine Seite. Wer sich an diesem Abend in Oberhausen einfindet, möchte Metal in Großbuchstaben huldigen. Keine Experimente, sondern Größen. Die Ticketpreise verlangen ein Glaubensbekentniss, die Massen lassen sich jedoch nicht vom Pfad der Gerechten abbringen und erleben dann in der Tat die Offenbarung einer Art Dreifaltigkeit. Wolves In The Throne Room sind in dem Kontext fast noch ein bisschen zu avanciert, leiten aber angenehm nebulös ein. Der Altherren-Death von At The Gates generiert dann unerwartete Sing-Alongs, auf denen Behemoth aufbauen. Zwischen all den Displays, einschwörenden Reden, bollernden Songs, Kostümwechseln, frenetischen Reaktionen, ritualistischen Anmutungen und Fistbumps ist es schwer möglich, kritische Distanz zu wahren, über die man ... naja. Im Fall Behemoth langsam schon nochmal nachdenken könnte. Die beste Figur hat aber ohnehin Tomas Lindberg gemacht, mit hölzernem Hämmern und dem Schmiss eines verkneipten Rock-Verteidigers im besten Alter.

Turbostaat, 15.03.2019, Druckluft

Vielleicht bin ich mittlerweile bei keiner Band so in den Anfängen hängengeblieben wie bei Turbostaat. Es tut mir ja auch leid und verstehen tu ich es sowieso nicht, aber wenn, dann greife ich mittlerweile eben zur "Flamingo", nicht zu sagen wir “Stadt der Angst”. Zum 20. Geburtstag gehe ich dann auch den Weg der heftigen Nostalgie, lasse das Best-Of-Programm in Münster ausfallen und schleiche mich in den kleineren Laden, zu den Leuten, die früher vielleicht dabei waren, vielleicht auch einfach Bock auf die alten Sachen haben, eventuell aber auch einfach die Hipster's Choice präferieren. Egal auch, denn Lügen sind vorher gut, und Turbostaat mit vor allem "Flamingo" und "Schwan" dann gewohnt großartig. Doch nochmal fetziger als fünf Jahre vorher, wo ja alle Platten sauber gespielt wurden, aber auch nicht so Punk, wie ich mir das nachträglich vorstelle. Irgendwo dazwischen halt, und das ist auch gut. Mich hat es ergriffen.

Die Goldenen Zitronen, 08.05.2019, Gleis 22

Apropos Punk und Vergangenheit: Was ist eigentlich mit den Goldies? Bei "Who's Bad" wollten alle ganz laut mit den Schultern zucken, endlich mal jetzt, bei "More Than A Feeling" tat es dann meist die leise Variante. Live sind die sechs Leute auch am Ende ihrer wohl unauffälligsten Dekade ein Schreckgespenst, von dem mein Kompagnon und ich uns bereitwillig und in klitschnassen Hosen heimsuchen lassen. Ted Gaier sieht aus wie einer, der wirklich Leute verprügelt, wie mir das ein Freund mal erzählt hat, Schorsch Kamerun hingegen, als wäre aus ihm auch eine gute Figur im Inventar der Augsburger Puppenkiste geworden. Theater und Agitation, neue Stücke und alte Nummern, runtergerattert und ins Publikum gedonnert, Instrumente durchgetauscht und am Ende Gute Nacht, Toten-2/5-Hosen hinterhergucken und mit Pop-Dozenten plaudern. Ist das jetzt die Güte der Musealisierung? Das Theater als Rückzugsort, der faule Kompromiss mit dem eigenen Erbe? Nicht nur der Auftritt von Skills vorab durchschneidet dankenswerterweise die Gemütlichkeit, die es dazu gebraucht hätte, auch der Rest pulsiert und zerdenkt noch in bemerkenswertem Gleichgewicht.

Gurr, 14. Juni 2019, Maifeld Derby

Festivals sind eine unberechenbare Sache. Eigentlich konnte mir ja niemand den Auftritt der Tocos am Sonntag vermiesen, den ich so lange herbeigesehnt hatte, nicht mal, dass sie tatsächlich und ausgerechnet mit dieser die Menschen vereinenden Platte "Die Unendlichkeit" im Rücken von Faber auf den Platz des Co-Headliners verwiesen wurden. Dass dann aber ein paar Brühnasen um mich herum dringend kurz vor Schluss des neunten und vorerst irgendwie letzten Maifeld Derby Verbrüderung feiern mussten, war dann doch ganz subjektiv einfach scheiße, der Platz des Besten Derby-Auftritts also mit einem Mal vakant. Jörkk Mechenbiers passioniertes Mundaufreißen im Rahmen des gefeierten Schreng Schreng & La La Auftritts war ebenso erhebend wie die endlose Champagnerdusche des Lifecoaches Mike Skinner am Samstag, doch irgendwie konnte und wollte nichts so recht an das Esprit reichen, mit dem Gurr am Freitag einen klassischen Nichts-zu-verlieren-Auftritt absolvierten. Es rumpelte, kickte, stolperte und war gut.

Wiegedood, 14.07.2019, Sputnikcafé

Black Metal, die andere Seite. Aus VW-Busen erheben sich mit Corpsepaint beschmierte Menschen, vor der Bühne winden sich definierte Körper, im Publikum mischen sich bierselige mit misanthropischen Blicken. Alles egal, als Wiegedood die Bühne betreten und schmettern, krachen, peitschen, all das in einem Nebel, der den Hörsturz synästhetisch vorausahnen lässt. Drumherum formieren sich Freundschaften, alle einigen sich ganz spontan darauf, dass das hier jetzt die Band ist. Das Café ist sowieso brechend voll, bekehrt werden muss hier niemand, aber Dreck fressen.

The Mudd, 28.09.2019, De Pluu

Es verlangt irgendwie viel Fingerspitzengefühl, um über Abende wie diese zu schreiben, die so aus dem Nichts auftauchen, mit unmittelbarer Euphorie eindecken und durch eine Gruppe junger Menschen bestechen, die sich noch recht deutlich recken und strecken, dabei aber die richtigen Knöpfe drücken. Paternalistische Grußworte sollten mit höchster Priorität vermieden werden, alleine schon weil es die gar nicht braucht um zu berichten, wie hier Morrissey verschluckt und wieder ausgespruckt wird, wie ein pastiger Bass an den Waden drückt und der Kick manchmal einsetzt, wo man sich schon zur Ruh legen wollte. Nach einer guten Dreiviertelstunde ist der Spuk vorbei, und das ist gut, denn die jungen Menschen wollen vielleicht noch von der Hausbar dieses Jugendzentrums kosten, und man selber will diesen kompakten Eindruck gar nicht durch irgendwelche Finten und Soli und krude Zugaben verwässert kriegen.

HGich.T, 01.11.2019, Sputnikhalle

Doch, es haftete meinem dritten Besuch eines HGich.T-Konzerts vorab eine gewisse Nostalgie an, zumindest aber eine Abgeklärtheit. 2010, da war das alles so aufregend gewesen, dass mein Kompagnon und ich uns in sicherem Abstand im Gewölbe des Trierer Ex-Hauses versteckt hatten, zwei Schaulustige auf einer etwas außer Kontrolle geratenen Abifeier. Man kannte ja Geschichten dieser Auftritte, hatte Bilder gesehen, und so halb, in einer guten, erträglichen Form wurde all das auch Wahrheit. 2015 war der Drops dann schon fast gelutscht, die Leute nicht mehr ganz so jung und neugierig, ein eher studentisches Publikum in kleinem Rahmen, der das Verstecken erschwerte. Die Atmosphäre war toll klaustrophobisch, die Gruppe in kleiner Besetzung angereist, es wurde viel geschrien, ein einsamer Raver schleppte sich zwischen all den verbliebenen Schaulustigen durch. Und nun, 2019, in Münster, wer sollte auftauchen? Ein paar neugierige Studierende, mit Interesse am Spektakel, das in der alten Form sicher nicht mehr auftreten würde? Es kam alles ganz anders: Zu meiner Überraschung fand das Konzert in der Halle, nicht im Café der Sputte statt, der Laden war voll und wurde erstmal gut 150 Minuten mit Goa-EDM-Techno-Rave-Krempel geflutet. Hinterher schossen dann einige Mitglieder des Kollektivs, über das ich längst den Überblick verloren habe, und so geschah es meinem Überblick auch an diesem Abend, zwischen alten Ravern und jungen Ravern und neugierigen Rocktypen und vollkommen unbeschriebenen Blättern, denen die Slogans mit spitzer Feder aufnotiert wurden, und wir mittendrin, und plötzlich dann vorne, in einem Zerrspiegel von Moshpit, in dem Leute einfach stolpern und getragen werden und saufen und schreien, aber eben auch einfach laufen und reden und ein Kabel an den Kopf kriegen, die Deko abräumen und dann ist alles vorbei, und die umgekippten Leute auf Trips feiern vielleicht noch weiter, aber wir werden jetzt wieder wach und gehen raus und dann nach Hause, weil morgen auch noch ein Tag war.

Back in August my partner and I wrote a song parody for Barney Frank, titled "Just Watch Me (Race You)" (the song has gotten a lot of play on the message boards, but only a very small fraction of that play has come from me, so this should probably go on record). Of course it became a thing, a sort of viral success story about the weird ways in which actual politics can be politicized for the amusement of strangers.

I have been generally positive toward ted for many years because I think he's great at writing songs (well, really great at writing material that sounds like songs) and because he's a good and admirable and young public intellectual. I am pleased to see him as a political figure again, though I am always surprised at how political it is. I don't agree with his positions, but I find myself disappointed whenever he opens his mouth.

This year, he really opened his mouth -- and in what amounts to an insult directed against any reference to "America" by anyone who isn't fully ensconced in a world-view somewhere outside of metamodernism and often-revolting irony.

Instead of demanding that we cast off "America" and come to a new level of rationalization and global self-reflection, he wants us to cast off the idea that we could ever really be outside of the framework of national politics. Here's his phrase, in a June 19 post:

Words matter. I'm not sure when, but I have felt in recent months that the words I choose matter, and what I choose to use them for. As a white man who grew up in the United States, it is easy to paint all cultures that don't share my own as "meaningless, frivolous, pernicious." These words -- and they're from the most prominent American columnist -- sound harsh and insulting to me. These words make me want to stay home, close the windows and go outside, wherever that might be. To me, it is very, very simple. I am not American. And neither is Eliot Spitzer, and James Orgill, and Aydin Caliskan, and Yannick Bey, and Juan Vaz. Each one of them could open his mouth, speak up, and tell everyone, loudly and proudly, where he stands. This, too, is simple. And simple people are better.

That phrase "dissent" seems like an appropriate adjective for "the whole thing has really gone downhill since Ted wrote that column."

How Do We Counter Health Care Disinformation Under a Disinformer-in-Chief?

"Don't worry, things could be worse.  And sure enough, things got worse." Disinformation in Medicine and Health Care Stealthy, deceptive systematic marketing, lobbying, and policy advocacy campaigns on behalf of big health care organizations, often pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical device companies, have long been a subject of Health Care Renewal.  A relatively recently revealed example was the stealth marketing campaign used by GlaxoSmithKline to sell its antidepressant Paxil.  This campaign included manipulating and suppressing clinical research, bribing physicians to prescribe the drug, use of key opinion leaders as disguised marketers, and manipulation of continuing medical education.  Other notable examples included Johnson and Johnson's campaign to sell Respirdal (look here),  and the infamous Pfizer campaign to sell Neurontin (look here and here).   Notably, stealth marketing seemed to be one reason for the growing popularity of narcotics (opioids) starting in the 1990s (look here). The organization and complexity of stealth marketing, lobbying and policy advocacy campaigns have often been sufficient to characterize them as disinformation.  For example, we characterized the campaign by commercial health insurance companies to derail the Clinton administration's attempt at health reform in the 1990s, as described by Wendell Potter in his book, Deadly Spin, as just that (look here).  The tactics employed in that campaign included: use of front groups and third parties (useful idiots?); use of spies; distractions to make important issues anechoic; message discipline; and entrapment (double-think). Many of the stealth marketing campaigns we discussed came to light through regulatory and law enforcement action.  For example, the public was made aware of the GSK stealth marketing of Paxil due to Eliot Spitzer's prosecution in 2004 (documented in Side Effects by Alison Bass).  Ultimately, that campaign resulted in a settlement including a multi-billion dollar fine in 2012 (look here). So we have long advocated better awareness of these insidious disinformation campaigns, and more vigorous regulatory and law-enforcement action against them.   Thus we were aghast in 2017 when a accomplished stealth  health care marketer transited the revolving door to wind up in a top federal position, on the President's Council of Economic Advisors (look here). That was bad.  Worse, now it appears that the disinformers are in charge of all regulation and law-enforcement. Disinformation at the Heart of the Current President's Election Campaign Cambridge Analytica's Appropriated Facebook Data Less than 10 days ago, the New York Times broke a complex story about the disinformation campaign at the heart of the Trump presidential campaign in 2016.  The campaign used

private information from the Facebook profiles of more than 50 million users without their permission, according to former Cambridge employees, associates and documents, making it one of the largest data leaks in the social network’s history. The breach allowed the company to exploit the private social media activity of a huge swath of the American electorate, developing techniques that underpinned its work on President Trump’s campaign in 2016.

Note that

The data Cambridge collected from profiles, a portion of which was viewed by The Times, included details on users’ identities, friend networks and 'likes.' Only a tiny fraction of the users had agreed to release their information to a third party.

Thus the campaign was based on inappropriately and unethically accessed, that is, hacked data from millions of people.  Such data hacking may prove to be illegal (see below).  PsyOps According to a companion article in the Guardian, Cambridge Analytica was linked to and its work based on that of a company called SCL Group,

one of whose subsidiaries, SCL Elections, would go on to create Cambridge Analytica (an incorporated venture between SCL Elections and Robert Mercer, funded by the latter). For all intents and purposes, SCL/Cambridge Analytica are one and the same.

Notably, SCL Group's

expertise was in 'psychological operations' – or psyops – changing people’s minds not through persuasion but through 'informational dominance', a set of techniques that includes rumour, disinformation and fake news.

Per the NY Times, Christopher Wylie, who blew the whistle on Cambridge Analytica et al,

said of its leaders: 'Rules don’t matter for them. For them, this is a war, and it’s all fair.' 'They want to fight a culture war in America,' he added. 'Cambridge Analytica was supposed to be the arsenal of weapons to fight that culture war.'

Per NPR, Wylie later told a UK parliamentary committee

Donald Trump makes it click in your head that this has a much wider impact. I don't think that military-style information operations is conducive for any democratic process.

Furthermore,

They don't care whether or not what they do is legal as long as it gets the job done

Thus it seems pretty clear that Cambridge Analytica/ SCL were in the disinformation business, and were happy to use various tactics, probably unethical and some likely illegal, to accomplish psychological operations to manipulate their subjects. Overlaps with Trump Campaign The company leveraged the unauthorized Facebook data:

Under the guidance of Brad Parscale, Mr. Trump’s digital director in 2016 and now the campaign manager for his 2020 re-election effort, Cambridge performed a variety of services, former campaign officials said. That included designing target audiences for digital ads and fund-raising appeals, modeling voter turnout, buying $5 million in television ads and determining where Mr. Trump should travel to best drum up support.

Note that Cambridge Analytica was run by some of Mr Trump's closest associates, including Steve Bannon, a Cambridge Analytica board member, who became Trump's third campaign director, and then a top White House strategic advisor, and Robert Mercer and his daughter Rebekah, investors and board members, who were notable Trump donors and gurus of related political causes. Although the firm first attached itself to the campaign of Ted Cruz, after that lost steam,  according to a Washington Post article

the Mercers switched their allegiance to Trump and pitched their services to Trump’s digital director, Brad Parscale. The company’s hiring was approved by Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner, who was informally helping to manage the campaign with a focus on digital strategy. Kushner said in an interview with Forbes magazine that the campaign 'found that Facebook and digital targeting were the most effective ways to reach the audiences. . . .We brought in Cambridge Analytica.' Kushner said he 'built;' a data hub for the campaign 'which nobody knew about, until towards the end.'

 Thus the Cambridge Analytica/ SCL disinformation campaign, built on hacked data, was done in the service of the Trump campaign, and with apparent full knowledge, acquiesecence, and sometimes active cooperation of top campaign leaders.  Mr Trump, of course, was ultimately responsible for the actions of his campaign, although none of the reporting so far speaks to his day-to-day participation in the Cambridge Analytica/ SCL disinformation campaign. A Platform Built on Manipulated Emotion It appears that the campaign used a variety of disinformation techniques.  It is striking that these techniques were ultimately used to push themes and policies that Cambridge Analytica/ SCL had developed prior to their involvement with Trump, not merely the themes and policies that Trump and his advisers had devised.  Furthermore, these  themes and policy positions later used by the Trump campaign were based not on ideology or policy research, but on the hidden fears and resentments of people assessed by Cambridge Analytica in its "psychographic" analysis campaign. Again, according to the Washington Post article,

The data and analyses that Cambridge Analytica generated in this time provided discoveries that would later form the emotionally charged core of Trump’s presidential platform, said Wylie, whose disclosures in news reports over the past several days have rocked both his onetime employer and Facebook. 'Trump wasn’t in our consciousness at that moment; this was well before he became a thing,' Wylie said. 'He wasn’t a client or anything.' The year before Trump announced his presidential bid, the data firm already had found a high level of alienation among young, white Americans with a conservative bent.

Furthermore, a later Washington Post article stated,

Cambridge Analytica used that information, together with insights gained from focus groups with angry Americans, to identify issues and target voters. Bannon supplied the ideological focus of wanting to remake America and billionaire Robert Mercer provided the money. Neither Bannon nor Mercer has publicly commented since the allegations emerged.

Then,

'One of the things that started to emerge was that we literally heard these sort of narratives about Washington as something that was, like, gross and disgusting, that was dirty,' Wylie said. So his team tested the phrase 'drain that swamp' to see if people would respond to it on social media. After all, they had access to the data of millions of Facebook users without their knowledge. And people responded. Through the internet and Trump’s speeches, the slogan became one of the campaign’s most identifiable soundbites. Perhaps it is the idea of building a wall along the Mexican border that best illustrates Wylie’s work for Cambridge Analytica. Bannon, Wylie said, was obsessed with the idea of separating the U.S. from the rest of the world so the country can rediscover itself. Trump’s campaign for a wall along the Mexican border is not really about stopping immigrants, Wylie said. 'It’s to embody separation,' he said. 'If you can embody that separation and you can further distance in the minds of Americans us here in America and them elsewhere, even if it is just across a river, or just across a desert, then you have won that culture war.'

So "drain the swamp" was not a catch phrase for fighting corruption, but a hook to deep-seated fears of contamination, and "build the wall" was not a policy position to literally build a physical wall, but a hook to deep-seated fears of otherness.  Yet in office Mr Trump has continued to use these slogans as if they were policy positions, and has remained fixated on building a physical wall.  As we discussed here, there is plenty of evidence that he has fostered, not fought corruption.  Use of "Proxy Organizations" Great Britain's Channel 4 interviewed Mr Nix, the CEO of Cambridge Analytica, posing as potential clients. As reported by the Guardian,

Turnbull said the company sometimes used 'proxy organisations', including charities and activist groups, to help disseminate the messages – and keep the company’s involvement in the background.

Use of proxies and third parties are commonly used disinformation tactics. Questions of Illegality Claims of Impunity During the Channel 4 undercover interview, Mr Nix claimed impunity,

When the undercover reporter expressed worries that American authorities might seize on details of a dirty campaign, Nix said the US had no jurisdiction over Cambridge Analytica, even though the company is American and is registered in Delaware. 'I’m absolutely convinced that they have no jurisdiction,' he told the purported client. 'So if US authorities came asking for information, they would simply refuse to collaborate. 'We’ll say: none of your business.''

Maybe his beliefs in impunity facilitated his comfort with the use of some apparently illegal tactics. Violation of UK Data Privacy Laws The UK has stringent laws on data privacy.  Its Information Commissioner's Office is apparently actively investigating whether Cambridge Analytica/ SCL violated them.  Late last week, the Guardian reported  

Investigators from Britain’s data watchdog have spent nearly seven hours searching the London offices of Cambridge Analytica. Eighteen enforcement officers entered the Cambridge Analytica headquarters in London’s West End on Friday night to search the premises after the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) was granted a warrant to examine its records. The officials concluded the search at about 3am on Saturday.

According to CBS News, at least three US states are now investigating whether the company broke US laws by accessing the Facebook data. Work on a US Campaign by Foreign Nationals As implied above, Cambridge Analytica and SCL were basically UK operations.  A Guardian article noted the apparent illegality of involvement in US political campaigns by foreign nationals.  The organization's own lawyers warned its leaders that

'Any decision maker must be a US citizen or green card holder,' the memo, seen by the Observer, warned. It also provided a brief legal history of cases involving foreign involvement in election campaigns, drawn up by a lawyer at the firm founded by former New York mayor Rudy Giuliani.

So,

It was clear that as a company largely run and staffed by Britons and Canadians, apart from Bannon and Mercer at the top, Cambridge Analytica – which was to go on to work on Donald’s Trump presidential election campaign – had a looming problem.

The management's response appeared to be subterfuge.

Two employees confirmed that they were still answering ultimately to Nix throughout the mid-term election campaigns that ended in November 2014. In total, more than a dozen foreigners, including Britons and Canadians, filled strategic roles in campaigns across the US. 'We were really speaking directly to the voters in a number of states,' said one former employee, who served on a team with several people who were not US citizens or green card holders. It is understood that some were working on tourist visas. Another ex-employee claimed that they had been provided with letters to give to US border control officials where needed, stating that they would not be working there.

It seems likely that the Cambridge Analytica/ SCL work for the Trump campaign was mainly accomplished by citizens of countries other than the US. Coordination with PACs  Great Britain's Channel 4 interviewed Mr Nix, the CEO of Cambridge Analytica, posing as potential clients. As reported by the Guardian, not only did he boast of his influence in the Trump campaign,

Senior managers then appeared to suggest that in their work for US clients, there was planned division of work between official campaigns and unaffiliated 'political action groups'.

That could be considered coordination – which is not allowed under US election law. The firm has denied any wrongdoing. Also,

In another exchange, Tayler describes an apparently planned division of spending on the campaign trail, with the candidate organising positive' messages, with negative attack ads left to the super Pacs, which may engage in unlimited political spending independently of the campaigns. 'As part of it, sometimes you have to separate it from the political campaign itself ... campaigns are normally subject to limits about how much money they can raise. Whereas outside groups can raise an unlimited amount.' 'So the campaign will use their finite resources for things like persuasion and mobilisation and then they leave the ‘air war’ they call it, like the negative attack ads to other affiliated groups.'

Note that,

The Campaign Legal Center has accused Cambridge Analytica over allegations of illegal coordination of this nature. It has filed evidence with the FEC alleging that the super Pac Make America Number 1 made illegal contributions to Trump’s campaign, 'engaging in unlawful coordinated spending by using the common vendor Cambridge Analytica'.

Boasts of Greater Nefariousness Great Britain's Channel 4 interviewed Mr Nix, the CEO of Cambridge Analytica, posing as potential clients.  As reported by the NY Times, he boasted that the organization had capabilities more nefarious than those above:

We can set up fake IDs and websites, we can be students doing research projects attached to a university, we can be tourists. There’s so many options we can look at.

He also mentioned apparent extortion:

But you know equally effective can be just to go and speak to the incumbents and to offer them a deal that’s too good to be true, and make sure that that’s video-recorded, you know. These sorts of tactics are very effective, instantly having video evidence of corruption, putting it on the internet, these sorts of things.

Finally, he discussed apparent extortion in the form of classic KGB style honey-traps.

Or, Mr. Nix said, they could 'send some girls around to the candidate’s house — we have lots of history of things' The reporter asked what kind of girls, and Mr. Nix said they could find some Ukrainian women. 'I’m just saying, we could bring some Ukrainians in on holiday with us you know,” Mr. Nix replied. “You know what I’m saying.' 'They are very beautiful,' he said. 'I find that works very well.'

Whether Cambridge Analytica/ SCL actually undertook such activities, particularly on behalf of the Trump campaign, is unknown.  However, their leadership clearly had no qualms about considering them to be options. Discussion An international organization, Cambridge Analytica/ SCL based in the UK, led by Trump confidantes including his last campaign leader and former White House strategic adviser Steve Bannon, and major Republican donors and hedge fund magnates Robert and Rebekah Mercer, worked with the Trump 2016 campaign, particularly coordinating with digital coordinator Brad Parscale.  Cambridge Analytica/ SCL leveraged Facebook private data on millions of people, obtained from most without their specific permission, to create a "psyops" political disinformation campaign featuring emotional appeals to voters' internal psychology, coupled with a variety of other tactics.  The campaign used foreign workers within the US, and apparently coordinated with political action committees, possibly violating US law.  The appropriation of private Facebook data possibly violated UK law.  The Cambridge Analytica/ SCL CEO also boasted that the organization was capable of various dirty tricks, including several species of extortion. It is unclear to what extent, if any, this disinformation campaign helped Mr Trump to win the presidency.  But clearly we now have a president whose campaign was apparently happy to employ disinformation on a grand scale, likely violating US and UK laws in the process, to win election. We have long advocated better awareness of insidious disinformation campaigns in health care, which we previously separated into stealth systematic marketing, lobbying, and policy advocacy campaigns.  Furthermore, we have long advocated more vigorous regulatory and law-enforcement action against them.  Remember that many of the stealth marketing campaigns we discussed came to light through regulatory and law enforcement action. Yet what sense does that make when the federal regulators and law enforcers operate under a regime that was perfectly happy to use disinformation to secure its election? It apparently makes no more sense than advocating for better federal law enforcement measures to reduce conflicts of interest and corruption in health care under an extraordinarily conflicted and corrupt regime (look here.) The fish is rotting from the head.  So in parallel with what we said then, the only way we can now address health care deception, crime, and corruption is to excise the deception, crime and corruption at the heart of our government.

It occurs to you that you listened to Ted Bundy in his interview with Focus close to Family founder Dr. James Dobson, just hours before he was executed. Bundy described how early experience with pornography consumed him and led him down his murderous goal. He brutally murdered 28 adult women.
