Facebook slår *hårdt* ned på QAnon

NBC News:
"Face­book said Tues­day that it is ban­ning all QAnon accounts from its plat­forms, a sig­nif­i­cant esca­la­tion over its pre­vi­ous actions and one of the broad­est rules the social media giant has put in place in its his­to­ry."

Som tech-jour­nal­ist på Zet­land, Fred­erik Kulager, skriv­er på Twit­ter:

"Efter lang tids nølen har Face­book her til aften udslet­tet QAnon fra Face­book i en skala, jeg ikke min­des at have set lig­nende. Alt QAnon-relateret slettes. Selv den gruppe, jeg var medlem af, hvor danskere holdt øje med Q her til lands er pist væk."

Politiske annoncer bliver forbudt på Facebook... efter valget

The Verge:
"Face­book will ban US-based polit­i­cal ads indef­i­nite­ly after the pres­i­den­tial elec­tion, attempt­ing to fore­stall con­fu­sion over its results. “While ads are an impor­tant way to express voice, we plan to tem­porar­i­ly stop run­ning all social issue, elec­toral, or polit­i­cal ads in the US after the polls close on Novem­ber 3rd, to reduce oppor­tu­ni­ties for con­fu­sion or abuse,” the com­pa­ny says."

Facebook svarer igen på 'The Social Dilemma'-filmen

Social Media Today:
"In a very unchar­ac­ter­is­tic move, Face­book has today issued an offi­cial rebuke to claims made in the new Net­flix doc­u­men­tary 'The Social Dilem­ma', which aims to pro­vide an overview of the var­i­ous ways in which social media plat­forms have become increas­ing­ly divi­sive and dan­ger­ous as their usage has increased over time."

🎃 Messenger er ved at gøre klar til Halloween

Social Media Today:
"The advan­tage of that could be that you won't have to put in so much effort with your Hal­loween cos­tume — and if you real­ly can't be both­ered dress­ing up, Facebook's got you, with some new Mes­sen­ger fea­tures that'll enable you to look 'spooky' with­out hav­ing to do any­thing more than tap on a visu­al effects but­ton with­in a Mes­sen­ger video call."

Facebook og Twitter fjerner og gemmer Trumps COVID-påstand

BBC:
"Face­book has delet­ed a post in which Pres­i­dent Trump had claimed Covid-19 was "less lethal" than the flu. [...] Twit­ter hid the same mes­sage behind a warn­ing about "spread­ing mis­lead­ing and poten­tial­ly harm­ful infor­ma­tion"."

Nej, Facebook har ikke bias mod konservative

NPR:
"But the facts to sup­port that case have been hard to find. NPR called up half a dozen tech­nol­o­gy experts, includ­ing data sci­en­tists who have spe­cial access to Facebook's inter­nal met­rics. The con­sen­sus: There is no sta­tis­ti­cal evi­dence to sup­port the argu­ment that Face­book does not give con­ser­v­a­tive views a fair shake. "

Instagram fylder 10 år

Plat­former / Casey New­ton:
"Ten years ago today, Kevin Sys­trom and Mike Krieger released Insta­gram into the world. Less than a year and a half lat­er, Face­book acquired it, in one of the shrewdest acqui­si­tions in the his­to­ry of busi­ness. Insta­gram is now one of the most pop­u­lar apps in the world, and has thrived dur­ing the pan­dem­ic. But reg­u­la­tors and com­peti­tors con­tin­ue to nip at its heels — Tik­Tok has report­ed­ly now sur­passed it as the sec­ond-most pop­u­lar app for teens, after Snapchat — and there’s no telling what it might look like a decade from now."

Læs nyheds­brevet

I den forbindelse har han også inter­viewet Sarah Frier, der udgav en bog om Insta­gram – 'No Fil­ter' – tidligere i år:

Casey New­ton: When you open Insta­gram today, which parts of the app feel basi­cal­ly the same as they did a decade ago?

Sarah Frier: The main feed is still very sim­i­lar to how the founders imag­ined it. It’s still this place where we por­tray our lives as more curat­ed and and pol­ished than they actu­al­ly are — which is some­thing that we learned to do because of Instagram’s fil­ters in the ear­ly days. 

But the app has got­ten so much more com­pli­cat­ed — and I think that it’s becom­ing more and more Face­book-like.

Twitter forbyder dødsønsker mod Trump

Giz­mo­do:
"On Fri­day, the same day Trump announced on the social media net­work that he and first lady Mela­nia Trump had test­ed pos­i­tive for covid-19, Twit­ter told Moth­er­board that its users are not allowed to “open­ly hope” for the president’s death on the plat­form. Doing so would result in tweets being removed, Twit­ter said, refer­ring to an “abu­sive behav­ior” rule that Moth­er­board reports it’s had since April. "

Birdwatch: Twitters værktøj i kampen mod misinformation

TechCrunch:
"Twit­ter is devel­op­ing a new prod­uct called “Bird­watch,” which the com­pa­ny con­firms is an attempt at address­ing mis­in­for­ma­tion across its plat­form by pro­vid­ing more con­text for tweets, in the form of notes. Tweets can be added to “Bird­watch” — mean­ing flagged for mod­er­a­tion — from the tweet’s drop-down menu, where oth­er block­ing and report­ing tools are found today. A small binoc­u­lars icon will also appear on tweets pub­lished to the Twit­ter Time­line. When the but­ton is clicked, users are direct­ed to a screen where they can view the tweet’s his­to­ry of notes."

Medier er "bedst" til at sprede misinformation fra Det Hvide Hus

MIT Tech­nol­o­gy Review:
"Benkler’s team just pub­lished its study, which exam­ines the president’s dis­in­for­ma­tion cam­paign against mail-in votes and details the methods—and people—he’s using to accom­plish his goals. The find­ings found that some of the biggest names in Amer­i­can mass media and the polit­i­cal elite are pri­mar­i­ly respon­si­ble, and that social media plays only a sec­ondary role. The find­ings run con­trary to the pop­u­lar idea that it’s for­eign troll fac­to­ries doing the worst dis­in­for­ma­tion dirty work."

Wired og Protocol lancerer spildækning

Som du kunne læse i Ugerevyen fra uge 37, vil bl.a. Wired dække spilin­dus­trien end­nu mere. Den­gang skrev CNN:

"The Wash­ing­ton Post, Bloomberg, and Wired have each announced invest­ments in gam­ing cov­er­age in recent months. These pub­li­ca­tions and oth­ers are look­ing to cap­i­tal­ize on this boom­ing indus­try with the same rig­or they’ve shown in report­ing on Hol­ly­wood and Sil­i­con Val­ley. The plan is to inves­ti­gate the busi­ness and cul­ture of the gam­ing indus­try with sto­ries that appeal to gamers and non-gamers alike. "

Nu er Wired så klar og har lanceret sek­tio­nen Wired Games. Hvis du vil vide mere, kan du læse denne velkom­star­tikel, Alan Hen­ry (der kalder sig "vært") har skrevet:

"Of course, WIRED already offers great cov­er­age of video games—as a busi­ness, as a force of cul­ture, and as entertainment—but WIRED Games is a place where we can do even more. We’ll bring you inves­ti­ga­tions and behind-the-scenes looks at the indus­try, along with pro­files of the artists, design­ers, stream­ers, and devel­op­ers who bring your favorite worlds to life. We’ll also fea­ture reviews and impres­sions of games we think you should play, gear that will improve your gam­ing expe­ri­ence, and tips and tools to play smarter, not hard­er, and enjoy the time you spend gam­ing."

Ny bog peger på adtech som den næste boble

Wired:
"Hwang’s new book, Sub­prime Atten­tion Cri­sis, lays out the case that the new ad busi­ness is built on a fic­tion. Micro­tar­get­ing is far less accu­rate, and far less per­sua­sive, than it’s made out to be, he says, and yet it remains the foun­da­tion of the mod­ern inter­net: the source of wealth for some of the world’s biggest, most impor­tant com­pa­nies, and the mech­a­nism by which almost every “free” web­site or app makes mon­ey. If that shaky foun­da­tion ever were to crum­ble, there’s no telling how much of the wider econ­o­my would go down with it."

Californien skal stemme om privacy-lov

"Propo­si­tion 24, also known as the Cal­i­for­nia Pri­va­cy Rights and Enforce­ment Act of 2020 (CPRA), is sup­posed to expand a land­mark Cal­i­for­nia pri­va­cy law that passed two years ago; there’s a good chance Cal­i­for­ni­ans will approve this one, too. It’s framed as leg­is­la­tion that will bet­ter pro­tect their pri­va­cy — in par­tic­u­lar, sen­si­tive data such as Social Secu­ri­ty num­bers, race, reli­gion, and health infor­ma­tion. [...]

That unbri­dled data sur­veil­lance by some big tech com­pa­nies out­side of their own user-fac­ing ser­vices — that is, Google and Facebook’s abil­i­ty to track you even when you’re not on their prop­er­ties — has under­mined con­sumer trust in the entire dig­i­tal econ­o­my.
