Stream.place Stream.place is open-source livestreaming on the AT Protocol.

If you haven't yet checked out stream.place you should. I'm really excited about the future of video they are building for the open social web.

The Resistance Comes for OpenAI A $150 Billion Pushback

A year ago, I predicted the first CEO who forcefully and publicly resisted Trump could reap significant benefits, both reputationally and commercially.

With its reputation for breaking barriers and the boldness chromosome in its DNA, I thought/hoped it would be Nike. But Dario Amodei just did it.

Hint: anyone who claims that Section 230 was meant only for "passive carriers" or "merely hosting" is either (1) lying to you or (2) deeply ignorant.

@superwuster.bsky.social do better, man.

@wyden.senate.gov has explained repeatedly why this is wrong. As have the courts.

Opinion | Social Media Isn’t Just Speech. It’s Also a Defective, Hazardous Product.

It is astounding to me that the @nytimes.com , which has had to run nearly identical corrections multiple times regarding how it misrepresented Section 230... has run yet another oped that misrepresents Section 230. This is embarrassing.

My own subjective experience of X's default "For You" feed is that it feels like a procession feed of viral videos scraped from other sources and intercut with posts designed to provoke a certain kind of anger. Here's a cool clip from an old film! Here's why the "multi-faith prayer rooms" in airports are an Islamic conspiracy!
Here's an amazing cheeseburger in Japan!
Here's why wind turbines are evil! Here's an amazing way to slice a cucumber! Here's a black person committing a crime! Here's someone turning a shipping container into a swimming pool! Here's why young women in offices don't have real jobs! X is not the internet. It is an attention prison, seemingly designed to change people's minds, and which is apparently quite successful in doing so: a recent study of

Iran was nowhere close to a nuclear bomb, experts say Although President Trump has claimed Iran was weeks away from developing a nuclear weapon, much more work was needed for the country to do so

What the Paramount–Warner Deal Means for The Bulwark The need for independent, anti-authoritarian media is greater than ever.

"The best time to topple an authoritarian regime is before it has fully consolidated power, when it is still in the “competitive” phase. Which is what we’re trying to do here at The Bulwark."

an email with the header "Opt out" from me to expertoptout@superhuman.com. 

Body text: Hi there. No idea if I am one of your experts, but I’d rather not be. You see, I do actually edit people and I don’t need your hallucination machine ruining my bad reputation.

Thanks
Liz
