Fox News and Facebook did to our parents what they said video games would do to us.


UX and infosec articles usually talk about auth + encryption. But this shows infosec guiding design and interaction. Novel. “To increase friction by prompting users to comment instead of simply retweeting or force people to understand a long conversation before participating”

Here you go: Twitter names "Mudge" Zatko head of security. Priors at DARPA, Google, L0pht and Cult of the Dead Cow. reuters.com/article/idUSKB…

This is a disturbing development. Last Friday, Facebook sent a cease-and-desist letter to two NYU researchers (@LauraEdelson2 and Damon McCoy), demanding that they shut down their research into political ads and disinformation on FB’s platform. wsj.com/articles/faceb…

So let me get this straight: Extending additional unemployment benefits to out-of-work Americans during a pandemic will make them lazy and lead to socialism, but trillions in bailouts to Wall St. bankers and corporate execs is good for the economy?

As Fang points out, Facebook has a curious approach to content moderation, maintaining that it cannot remove Donald Trump's calls for protesters to be shot, while equipping employers with tools to prevent employees from discussing collective bargaining. 4/

On Wednesday, the company demonstrated a new suite of features for Workplace, including the ability to censor certain words or topics from the system. The example they chose? "Unionize." theintercept.com/2020/06/11/fac… 2/

This is absolutely unreal. Last time: no strings attached bail out money. This time: the public doesn't even get to know which multinational, multibillion dollar companies got its money. Looting with masks on.

BREAKING: Steven Mnuchin is now flat-out REFUSING to disclose the businesses receiving $500,000,000,000 in bailout funds, claiming the info is "confidential" 4.5 MILLION businesses received government funds. Zero transparency. Unconscionable, jaw-dropping corruption.
