Reminds me of back in 2013 when Reddit admins accidentally revealed that Eglin Air Force Base, a location often cited as the source of government social-media propaganda/astroturfing programs, was the most Reddit addicted city in the world.

To be fair, every Air Force base had higher than average Reddit usage back in the day. It was one of the few websites not blocked by default. I don't know when that changed, Because I was out before then.

But yes, there are also the propaganda teams.
