How #NoName manipulate their audience (and probably bosses) - they post photoshopped screenshots of outages, and have links to check-host.net - which always show sites down.
E.g. I've attached the report for liverpool.gov.uk just now, which shows as down - but it's actually available.
The net effect is an audience of tens of thousands on Telegram cheering on nothing.
