Elections are a key event every fall, but accessibility to state election resources is not universal. Our newest article identifies how state voter registration sites are often not suitable for visually-impaired individuals. techscience.org/a/2021110801/
We just published a study from @jinyanzang that reveals Facebook ads allow companies to target race, allowing advertisers to violate federal laws. We need new accountability structures for #bigtech. Read here: techscience.org/a/2021101901/
Do you have a dream of shaping a more just tomorrow using technology? Join the new #PublicInterestTech Lab and work on making your dream a reality @Harvard @Kennedy_School. Follow @public_techlab and share your vision for a more equitable tech future news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/…
Congrats to @Kennedy_School on the launch of the new @public_techlab, led by Dr. @LatanyaSweeney. This lab will enable Harvard students to build #PublicInterestTech expertise focused on equity, opportunity and the protection of basic rights. news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/…
Thanks @WIRED for covering the threat of deepfake text on public comments for federal rules by Tech Science researcher Max Weiss wired.com/story/ai-power… #deepfake #publicinterest #GovTech
VoteFlare is a voter registration monitoring service, available today for Georgia voters. It's a voter registration monitoring service to automatically update you about changes to your voter registration and absentee ballot. Go to voteflare.org
A new tool lets voters in Georgia sign up for automatic notifications of any sudden changes to their voting status that could prevent them from casting ballots in the pivotal Jan. 5 runoffs that will determine party control of the Senate. axios.com/vote-flare-not…
Super excited for the launch of VoteFlare, starting with Georgia. It's a voter registration monitoring service that I helped create to automatically update you about changes to your voter registration and absentee ballot. Check it out at voteflare.org

“The Real Threat of Fake Voices in a Time of Crisis” is an op-ed on the threat of deepfake text to federal public comment websites by Gov PhD candidate, Jinyan Zang, Prof. Sweeney, and Gov senior, Max Weiss. techcrunch.com/2020/05/16/the…
How do we protect our democracy from deepfake text? @jinyanzang, @MaxWeiss55, @LatanyaSweeney from @IQSS share their solutions in this @TechCrunch piece. #PublicInterestTech techcrunch.com/2020/05/16/the…
The threat of deepfake text to our democracy is real & present today. Governing bodies need #PublicInterestTech solutions – like CAPTCHA – to ensure our processes are secure. @TechCrunch techcrunch.com/2020/05/16/the…
An AI text generator for creating and submitting federal public comments. People couldn't tell whether they were real or fake. Fun! techscience.org/a/2019121801/
Great to see discussion about our recent paper on "Deepfake Bot Submissions to Federal Public Comment Websites Cannot Be Distinguished from Human Submissions" on @newsycombinator news.ycombinator.com/item?id=218432… #Deepfakes #cybersecurity techscience.org/a/2019121801/

Max Weiss (Gov concentrator with a focus in the Tech Science track) was featured in the Washington Post! Article: washingtonpost.com/news/powerpost… @Harvard @Harvardiop
PWNED: Government agencies that ask for public feedback on their policy changes may be highly vulnerable to phony comments generated by computer bots and artificial intelligence, according to a study by a Harvard University undergraduate washingtonpost.com/news/powerpost…
