More than 3 months since Mark Zuckerberg was forced to apologize to families for Meta's harms to kids, Meta continues to increase lobbying efforts against the interest of children. Here are the new record-breaking lobbying numbers from Q1 2024: issueone.org/articles/as-co…
For the last few years, was almost as though "militia" became a dirty word...but that seems to be changing. I have a story in @WIRED today about how militias, after laying low since Jan 6, have been quietly re-organizing and rebuilding on Facebook. wired.com/story/extremis…
Meta doesn’t want to be held legally responsible for any of the harm caused by its algorithms, but it doesn’t want users to opt out of them, either. A new lawsuit filed on behalf of @EthanZ is challenging that position, @telliotter reports. wired.com/story/meta-sec…
"Of the 327 videos served to the “For You” page in @mmfa’s analysis, 100 (or 30.6%) contained conspiracy theories or apocalyptic fearmongering." The latest study from @OliviaLittle for @mmfa (w/ research from me!) features one of the most !!! charts I've helped create. More⬇️

Four years ago, Mark Zuckerberg pledged that @Meta would "protect the integrity of the election and support our democratic process". Now, he's gutting the team responsible for fulfilling that pledge. Doing this six months before a presidential election is downright negligent.

I'm testing Meta AI, and the guardrails are staggeringly low when considering the potential for disinformation. Just off the news, I asked it to generate images of Columbia protesters, and the results were alarming.
Meta’s lobbying surges have also coincided with whistleblower testimony regarding child safety issues - first with @FrancesHaugen, and now with Arturo Bejar. Not a good look for a company seeking to earn lawmakers’ trust.

Vehicle tracking features are endangering victims of domestic abuse, @kharijohnson writes. In some cases, shelters have begun telling clients that they can’t park nearby, because doing so could compromise their location. themarkup.org/privacy/2024/0…
If a platform receives a report about a neo-Nazi or anti-Musim account with thousands of followers, it should act quickly to remove the content and suspend the account. Unfortunately, that isn't happening at TikTok.

“Zuckerberg has walked away from his commitment to Congress – under oath – to help protect American elections. His promises ring hollow & shine a light on a company so consumed by its own self-preservation & negative press that it’s unwilling to meet the moment,” @sachalouise.
Meta’s decision to cut Oversight Board staff should be a strong indication of the company’s priorities, at a time when scams & disinformation are surging. Read more from @NaomiNixWrites about the growing gap between the Board’s ambitions and its funding. washingtonpost.com/technology/202…
Tech companies are congratulating themselves for promising to fix problems they caused, writes @emanuelmaiberg. “The harm we see from the rapid deployment of generative AI tools is not inevitable. It is a direct result of how that technology is developed, released, & monetized.”

Thanks for highlighting our research, @RepDanGoldman! YouTube's recommendation algorithms are a major revenue driver, and the company hasn't done enough to keep them safe. Read more about how YouTube connected video games and real world weapons, here: techtransparencyproject.org/articles/youtu…

Apple & Google could have prevented a large number of sexual deepfakes –especially in schools– if they had proactively removed these tools from their app stores. Instead, @emanuelmaiberg & @404mediaco had to do their work for them. 404media.co/apple-removes-…
