🚨We helped the EU Commission assess Big Tech companies' responses to Russian disinformation to help prepare for the full enforcement of Europe's new digital rulebook, the #DSA. Today, the @EU_Commission published the results of our study. news.yahoo.com/eu-study-slams…
The European Commission just released a groundbreaking study that for the first time provides a methodology to assess a systemic risk (in this case: Russian disinformation campaigns) as foreseen by the Digital Services Act🧵(1/8) op.europa.eu/en/publication… #dsa #DigitalServicesAct
Incredible chart from @jburnmurdoch in @FT which shows how extraordinary the UK’s climate consensus is. Working in an organisation that looks at polarisation in different countries I get to see how despite our problems, we’re relatively far less polarised. on.ft.com/3Dxxy1F
For @thetimes, I wrote about the rise of American voices in the UK tech sector thetimes.co.uk/article/welcom…
If being anti-LGBT is supposedly so indigenous to African culture, why does a US tech executive need to plow massive funds into this campaign of hatred and intolerance. theguardian.com/global-develop…
Canada’s facing a news block from Google & Facebook because of a new law requiring these platforms to compensate news publishers for the free distribution of their content. Here’s why this matters & we should support our Commonwealth cousins in this battle nationalnewswatch.com/2023/07/05/why…
"If Google and Meta’s response is to pull news from their platforms in every jurisdiction that enacts policy it dislikes, then we need to be having a much more pressing conversation on the role these companies play in our democratic society." mediatechdemocracy.com/all-work/centr…
If Google/Meta were genuine re their preference for a journalism fund they could simply set one up now, make it maximally inclusive & transparent, & align it with the exemption criteria in C18. Or they could block access to news in a PR fight aimed squarely at an int'l audience.
I’m up in @UKHouseofLords today making the case for access to data. We need to know what the hell is going on. The Bank of England can see into financial markets. Why can’t we see into Tech’s traffic and algorithms?
We need increased social media data access in the #OnlineSafetyBill to ensure democratic oversight. We strongly urge the Government to support amendments proposed by @JimBethell, @LordJimKnight, @whiterhino1949 mctd.ac.uk/leading-academ…
🚨 SCOOP: OpenAI lobbied the E.U. to weaken forthcoming AI regulation, even as in public it calls for stronger AI guardrails, documents obtained by TIME show. We're publishing the key document in full alongside my story 👇 time.com/6288245/openai…
Online safety experts will struggle to sound the alarm about harmful content if landmark legislation does not allow independent researchers to access data from social media platforms, campaigners have warned. Via @DanMilmo theguardian.com/technology/202…
Political changemakers from all over Europe can now apply to our ideation grants, designed to support individuals and initiatives who want to to think through ideas and explore solutions to make politics more inclusive, hopeful and human. Find out more >> wearemultitudes.org/news/apply-for…
Meta data access: the key issue everyone's ignoring. @Sir_David_King and @FrankFpk1 nail it in @Telegraph That's why I've tabled an amendment to the #onlinesafteybill. Let's uncover those pesky algorithms causing all this trouble!
Today, @ginasue, @Sir_David_King and @FrankFpk1 have written in the @Telegraph, calling for increased social media data access in the #OnlineSafetyBill They urge @NorwichChloe to support amendments proposed by @JimBethell, @LordJimKnight, @whiterhino1949 telegraph.co.uk/opinion/2023/0…
Data access is so important for academic research and the UK is in danger of getting left behind unless action is taken by policy makers to lead on this agenda
