  6. yourvoicedecides.com ist eine Website von Philip Morris, mit der eine EU-Konsultation über die künftigen Regeln für Tabakprodukte (ec.europa.eu/info/law/better-r) manipuliert werden soll.
    In der Website muss man ein paar Fragen beantworten und einen eigenen Kommentar schreiben, und dann generiert eine KI daraus einen Text, den man dann an die EU schicken kann. Ich fand das Resultat nicht sehr überzeugend — typisches KI-Kauderwelsch eben — aber es wird den Leuten, die das Ganze lesen müssen, zusätzlichen Aufwand bereiten.

    Hier sind noch zwei Artikel über die Angelegenheit (beide auf Niederländisch):
    tabaknee.nl/nieuws/item/3508-i
    rookvrijegeneratie.nl/artikele

    (Warum es nur Artikel auf Niederländisch gibt, ist mir nicht klar, aber vielleicht liegt es daran, dass in den Niederlanden Ärzte und Krankenkassen protestiert haben.)

  7. Among the several things the Campaign for the Prevention of Rural Electricity (CPRE) and a lot of other groups, some astroturf, which sail under deceptive title of the Solar Alliance miss or represent incorrectly is that rooftop solar panels don't feed power to the National Grid, they add it to the local distribution network.
    Large solar farms will feed to the Grid, hence tend to cluster around access points to the Grid.
    So one does not replace the other.

  8. CW: Long thread/6

    Armed with this knowledge, Hun Sen forced Facebook to order Cambodians to post under their real names (which made them liable to arrest and torture) or fall silent.

    Hun Sen then spent public funds to hire a bleating army of #astroturf supporters from Filipino #clickfarms who would "like" his posts and shout down Cambodians - especially exiled Cambodians speaking from abroad - who dared to criticize him:
