When the wall came down people read their Stasi files. One family four out they were reported by their neighbour for hanging a forbidden kid’s Mickey Mouse t shirt on their washing line. Tip lines are going to be busy.

This entirely - I was at KX on 7/7 and it was horrible not knowing whether colleagues had been affected and so on. These things stay with you.

New article in Nature describes a field experiment on X which shows that assigning users to an algorithmic feed pushes conservative content and demotes mainstream news.
Sounds obvious but important in light of prior claims algorithms don't cause attitudinal changes.

Same but with my grandfather - he caught it from prisoners of war while working in the Merchant Navy during WW2. But if he hadn’t been ill he wouldn’t have met the fever nurse he met and married.

In the UK we all got the TB skin test and a vaccine if we tested negative. That doesn’t happen routinely now but we do vax babies who live in high risk areas etc.
