No, it is only Russia that is using bots and automated posters. And these bots often make mistakes. Other government hires people to do it. Israel has the highest number of such people (between 5000 - 50000). Turkey has 6000 trolls that post pro AKP, that is, pro Erdogan posts on social media. (We know this thanks to newly classified emails from leaked databases).
The current ruling party of India has a massive troll army. My estimate is that it has about 10000 - 20000 professional trolls. A former troll who worked in that project wrote an entire book about it. The book is titled, I am a troll - Amazon.
And the funny thing is, the books review section was trolled by these trolls confirming the assertions made in the book. I added a screenshot to some of the troll reviews. (None of these trolls brought the book. You can see in the screenshot that none of the reviews with one star have the "Verified Purchase" sign.)
No. Everyone is employing the bot-swarms. There appears to be a semi-autonomous bot net roaming about as well.
There's a guy on YouTube who is tracking it down. His name is Quinn Michaels.
