Lifecycle of a new rumour
A new rumour has started online. You’ve seen it yourself, someone has sent you an example of it, you’ve seen another group tracking it - there are a bunch of ways to spot something new happening. Now what?
Tell people:
- Put a message in #repository, telling people about this new rumour. Use the words [NEW RUMOR] so it’s easy to find later?
Decide whether to start a response:
- Do a quick check that it’s a rumour. One sighting doesn’t make an incident. 15 copies of the same message on Twitter, or 3 friends sending you the same strange DM, and you’re probably onto something.
- Then, find someone to be responsible for this. It’s probably going to be you, but if you don’t have the time to set up a response, ping the #general slack channel and ask for a volunteer. All instructions below here are for whoever takes on this responsibility.
Start a slack channel for the rumor:
- Name it rumor-xxx where xxx is a short description of the rumor, like gaspumps-infected or stafford-act. Make the first message in the channel a description of the rumor
- Put a message into #general and #repository, telling people there’s a new rumor channel and asking them to look for data on it
