Emily Thornberry raised an urgent question about the Integrity Initiative to Alan Duncan. His response has been described by the Scottish Daily Mail as "embarassing", raising more questions than it answered.

In a third batch of leaks from Anonymous, it was revealed that a French company called Lexfo offered the Integrity Initiative a proposal to spread untraceable propaganda via several hundred news sites, in multiple languages, including monitoring and editing Wikipedia pages. [6]
