talks about the differences practices, techniques and strategies that can be used in fanspiracy and we see these in Swift fandom as well as e.g. QAnon. Simone had talked to Swifties across the globe and asked about Easter egg hunting which she's focusing on today.

It looks like first conference for 2024 — a panel with
