    "SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Major social media platforms such as Instagram and YouTube have failed to protect LGBTQ+ users from hate and harassment, in part, because they intentionally rolled back previous safety practices, the advocacy group GLAAD said Tuesday in its annual Social Media Safety Index.

    "The report said that recent “unprecedented hate speech policy rollbacks” from Instagram and Facebook parent Meta Platforms and Google’s YouTube are “actively undermining the safety of LGBTQ people” both online and offline. Meta’s rollback now allows users to call LGBTQ people “mentally ill,” among other policy changes."

  12. Interesting that the new pick for fcc says he wants to "smash the censorship cartel", which could mean legal action against Bluesky if they ban transphobe harasser Jessie Singal?

    "Free speech" surely doesn't mean forcing media to publish things they don't want to publish? The government saying "You may not ban this bad-actor"!

    Forcing all centralized services like Bluesky to publish harassers and bullies doesn't sound very free to me!

    Is properly decentralzied fediverse at an advantage here? Would government force my server to not block Singal? Could that even be done? Not by a foreign government presumably.

    From the article: "Unlike the mythological creatures of early Scandinavian folklore, online trolls are real, and dealing with them is never a fun experience.

    "An internet troll, as defined by Wikipedia, is:

    “…a person who posts inflammatory, insincere, digressive, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog), with the intent of provoking readers into displaying emotional responses, or manipulating others’ perception.”

  23. Just catching up with the WeDistribute.org articles about the harrassment of fediverse developers. I noticed at the time the vitriol against Ryan for adding ATProto support to BridgyFed...

    wedistribute.org/2024/02/tear-

    ... and stuck up for him.

    But I had no idea what was happening to that poor guy from ContentNation;

  25. Doing orders for Uber eats picking up food for someone and was harassed by 2 muscular shitheads with American bandanas on thier heads with "what the hell are you wearing" and "come here" I repeated kinky as I entered the place and when I left they demanded I give them the food I yelled snowflakes as I walked away

    And when we got in the car they tried following us on foot as we drove off and they were lightly stumbling

    I was wearing my usual queer punk clothing

    And I've just now picked up my weapons from our apartment just in case below was where I was harassed in this realm

  28. This sounds like a reason to call for our MPs and other government officials to remove themselves from toxic corporate social media spaces and create government-run spaces, federated into the open social web, so that Canadians can interact with their elected officials and those elected officials can be protected from harassment!

  30. Good ol' boy law enforcement in Texas-
    "Allegations that local officials abuse their power is a calling card of small-town Texas politics. In 2018, officials in the Hill Country town of Ingram fined a local business owner after he asked for records under the Texas Public Information Act—in retaliation for the request..."

  31. Several years ago, for reasons I cannot comprehend, a local person began harrassing me on FB, accusing me of being a pedophile. I blocked them and put the whole upsetting experience behind me. Then, during lockdown, I was on a zoom call hosted by a local organization and realized that this awful person was one of the folks on the call. I immediately left the meeting and sent a letter to the organizer saying that someone who’d been harrassing me was on the call and I did not feel safe there. They never responded, and I can’t help but wonder if that person noticed I was there and started lying about me to everyone there. Ugh.

    I’ve had to deal with so much traumatic harassment on social media. I don’t know how kids deal with it these days. I was bullied horrendously throughout my childhood and it’s only because of my resilience that I survived adolescence. I don’t know that I would have if I’d also been bullied online. #harrassment #bullying #trauma #abuse

    @smitten @yassie_j @lucretia @larsfrommars Doesn't chage the fact that #Ro is a proven asshole and uses #dogpiling as much as openly made up accusations ranging from gaslighting to racism as well as his followers in order to harass critics.
