Freezenet (freezenet@noc.social)'s status on Friday, 05-Jul-2024 06:20:25 JST Freezenet You know how some legal commentators were saying that the Supreme Court has allowed a president to assassinate a political rival? Well, according to Legal Eagle... they are right: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MXQ43yyJvgs

35% of all pay for journalism comes from the government. That is worrying some as they contemplate the independence of the press.

Freezenet (freezenet@noc.social)'s status on Saturday, 27-Apr-2024 09:47:07 JST Freezenet Hey @mmasnick . Became aware of another study alleging that social media is destroying the minds of teenagers. Going to try and dive deeper into the numbers given that the selling points aren't adding up, but thought I'd pass the study along to you for you to pick through as well: https://www.unesco.org/en/articles/new-unesco-report-warns-social-media-affects-girls-well-being-learning-and-career-choices
Given the enormous amount of research that says otherwise, I'm quite skeptical of the findings in this study already.

Ever since Elon Musk took over Twitter, spam bots gradually ran more and more rampant. The problem is taking its toll on users.
When Elon Musk took over Twitter in 2022, one of his big bold claims was that he was going to take care of the spam bot problems.

Freezenet (freezenet@noc.social)'s status on Thursday, 30-Nov-2023 15:08:45 JST Freezenet @mmasnick There's a video where there was a hearing at the Canadian House of Commons talking about how platforms like Google and Facebook are somehow evading the law by dropping news links among other things. The second link is the direct link to the video. Michael Geist was on the panel and seemed like the voice of reason for the most part, but others were there making all kinds of absurd claims.

Freezenet (freezenet@noc.social)'s status on Thursday, 30-Nov-2023 15:08:44 JST Freezenet @mmasnick One of the claims during the opening statements was that Facebook has full editorial control over users content. That guy said the evidence of this is the fact that Facebook dropped news links in Canada, so, therefore, they can control everything that appears on their platform. It's... insane some of the stuff that came out of that hearing.

Freezenet (freezenet@noc.social)'s status on Thursday, 30-Nov-2023 04:19:51 JST Freezenet Welp, if the Canadian government proved anything today, it's that the American government doesn't hold a monopoly on making ridiculously stupid remarks about things like news links, platforms, and technology in general: https://www.ourcommons.ca/DocumentViewer/en/44-1/CHPC/meeting-101/notice

This was after Meta dropped news links and 21 days away from Google presumably doing the same thing. There's no talking any sense to them, is there?
