In the current systems, I think it’s likelier that someone uses them to run phishing/propaganda campaigns at scale, and we primarily aim to show that this is efficient and cost-effective.
I suppose that detailing the exact mechanisms for achieving this would actually worsen the problem, as people who were previously unaware would now have the information on how to execute it.

Yep, I agree! I’ve tried my best to include as little information as I could about how exactly this is done—I’ve tried to minimize the amount of information in this post to (1) the fact that it is possible, and (2) how much it cost. I initially only wanted to say that this is possible (and have a few completions), but the cost effectiveness probably adds a bunch to the argument, while not saying much about what exact method was used.
I have no authority over how safety experts share information here. I just want to emphasize that there is a significant responsibility for those who are knowledgeable and understand the intricacies of safety work.
