Resumo
Besides describing DAPP methodology for identifying automated profiles, this paper presents its application in four cases: the Queermuseum exhibit, the pre-electoral debate in Paraguay, debates on eight Brazilian political actors, and the trial of former-president Lula. In all cases, we could identify a substantial use of bots.
