The Horizon Audiofiles - Ep 011 - Legislation As An Instrument Of Cognitive Warfare

While subduing the opponent's will has been the pinnacle of
warfare since Sun Tzu, the existing notion of cognitive warfare
has gained traction with the possibility of influencing the
opponent directly via cyberspace and social media. Influence
operations via cyberspace entail swaying public opinion,
manipulative psychological warfare, and lawfare. The use of law
as an instrument of power to affect perception and cognition is
possible due to ongoing legal disputes on how to apply
(international) law to cyberspace. States can cherry-pick or even
assertively exploit variations in interpretations of
international law to pursue or defend their national interests as
a means of cognitive warfare.
