Add Craigslist to the tech platforms Russians used to manipulate the 2016 election

In one of the weirder revelations to come out of the Mueller report released this morning, it seems that Craigslist was yet another tech platform used in Russia's election influence campaign. Apparently the Russians used the platform (alongside Facebook and the rest) to facilitate their real-life trolling campaigns. The Russian influence operations included things like recruiting individuals to walk around New York City "dressed up as Santa Claus with a Trump mask" (the relevant section is on page 32 of the Mueller report).
