exploits children:

Meta revoked a job offer to a prominent cyber-intel. analyst -after he criticized IG for failing to protect children online.

Raffile had been offered a job as a human exploitation investigator. He'd participated in a webinar on safeguarding agst FIN sextortion schemes (featured: parents of 4 children who'd died after being scammed on IG), during which he criticized for allowing children to fall prey to scammers & offered possible solutions.

@KimPerales Simply irresponsible and sad. Would Zuck and his wife want their children targeted?

Citation politics: The gender gap in internet governance

"Results show that male-gendered names were cited more than double the number of times of female-gendered names (47% vs. 20%)."

#Blinken should end up in The Hague, with Netanyahu, Biden and the rest

By amplifying ZAKA's unsubstantiated claims without corroborating evidence from impartial sources, Blinken tacitly lent credibility to an infamously unreliable organization. However, Blinken's and others' willingness to broadcast selectively curated information aligns the U.S. stance with Israeli propaganda efforts to reframe defensive Palestinian resistance as unwarranted aggression. Blinken's actions normalized the marginalization of Palestinian perspectives and enabled the systemic information asymmetry that nurtures the cyclical perpetuation of the Israeli occupation's oppressive status quo in Gaza, which is reaching its worst possible conclusion right before our eyes.

Bassem: THEY LIED . THEY LIED . THEY STILL DO. They lied so the world can accept the atrocities they are doing now . They lied . Their media said they lied . And the western media didn’t even bother reporting on that . Shame on you @cnn @bbcnews @skynews @msnbc @foxnews @france24 @dwnews

Of course they should be, but that will never happen because of the so-called "Hague Invasion
Act" which allows the US president to use military force to liberate any US citizen from being held at the Hague.
Let that sink in.

Aki,

@KimPerales I do not understand what CH (Confederatio Helvetica = Switzerland) has to do with your comment. China would be CN or CHN.

Zuck/his team at Meta lie:

"Always comes back to Meta’s surveillance capitalism. The data & microtargeting of ads while managing the PR & policy risk from the negative externalities of minimizing cost of the content." -J Kint

In the lawsuit against Facebook, Stenson said the prevalence of inappropriate content on IG is low, & that the co invests heavily in reducing it.

IG’s algorithm decides: users might have a prurient interest in children🚨.

Facebook pushes abhorrent RW lies. It's being sued, but that doesn't deter CEO Zuckerberg:

"Over the past month, right-wing conspiracy pages on Facebook have spent $75,000 on video ads promoting false claims of an imminent attack on the U.S. power grid. It uses deep fake audio & allege Biden admin involvement, but Facebook still allows them to run." -Kyle Thorp

The state of social media:

Twitter/ #x - nazis
#IG - wellness influences & “accountants”
#Facebook - angry elderly people
#Threads - covid-denying twitter refugees
#Bluesky - people half-leaving twitter & furries
#Mastodon - well-intentioned nerds
#Tiktok - young people who communicate well

og,

@LALegault Can't argue with that statement
