Feels like OpenAI just discovered push notifications 🤔

Great cover Sofia! Can’t wait to give it a read

Idk - I keep reading that this means Labor can be as progressive as ever. But really, it feels more like this mandate is for them to be as centrist as possible

Please read and know that the rush to make the internet 'safe' through bad legislation and platform censorship policies will make the internet worse for many - especially LGBTQ+ teens and young people who rely on digital media for crucial information and support

But actually, I enjoyed the comparison between these crypto scams featuring Koch and the real ads for 'Kochie's Business Builders', which is itself pretty scammy.

A great article on the scandal that shocked the world! Is this the end of Kochie's career? Click the link below to find out more...

Thought I was an engineer plugging these in!

So sad I missed this one! Such a great project 😍

I promise this is my last paper for the year!

Very proud to have presented at Digital Intimacies X today on the declining engagement of a mental health support group / Discord server. My paper asks what role should platforms like Discord play in ensuring the safety and well-being of their users? (Probably a bigger one)

Digital Intimacies X best slides award goes to @claresoutherton.bsky.social and Naomi Smith!!! A really great paper on contemporary conspiracy cultures and the epistemic collapse of the image

A great first panel at Digital Intimacies X!

And there’s platforms like TikTok that don’t even require you to create an account! This policy is completely useless

I wish I could have seen your panel too! 😩

Thrilled to have presented a paper at #aanzca24 today! I shared my work on developing a web app that allowed research participants to submit close-to-real-time scam data

While users will still be allowed to follow accounts that post about political and social issues, accounts posting such content will not be recommended and content posted by nonpolitical accounts that is political in nature or includes social commentary also won’t be recommended, Meta said. The company said it also won’t show users posts focused on laws, elections or social issues from accounts those users don’t follow.

Meta's "no politics allowed" stance is 1) itself a political position, and 2) so impossible to enforce that it's instead a perverse guarantee that what political content does surface will be absolutely deranged, in that the algorithms will be unable to identify it as conventionally political

A couple of words in here from me about automated content moderation, the over-policing of LGBTQIA+ speech, and the importance of platforms supporting queer people 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

I gave my first-ever paper at the inaugural ‘Queer Contexts’ conference 2 weeks ago! I presented on the utopianism of “Queer Community on the Blockchain”. It was really fun and just a little scary. Excited to do more.
