  1. Online keeps hammering X despite threat

    The US is not backing down from its fight to technology researchers who monitor safety risks on the biggest online platforms.

    In July, a judge blocked as an policy that the US relied on to weigh whether to and deport people who flag illegal or harmful online content as national risks. In his announcement of the policy, explained that by targeting a list of researchers—which he stood “ready and willing” to expand—the policy supposedly served to prevent foreign nationals from manipulating digital town squares and Americans.

  2. Online #hate #researcher keeps hammering X despite #deportation threat

    The US is not backing down from its fight to #deport #noncitizen technology researchers who monitor safety risks on the biggest online platforms.

    In July, a judge blocked as #unconstitutional an #immigration policy that the US relied on to weigh whether to #detain and deport people who flag illegal or harmful online content as national #security risks. In his announcement of the policy, #SecretaryofState #MarcoRubio explained that by targeting a list of researchers—which he stood “ready and willing” to expand—the policy supposedly served to prevent foreign nationals from manipulating digital town squares and #censoring Americans.

  3. Day 81:After a 3-day wait board a ship to Bougainville. I'm over the moon I'll reach the final destination of my 28,000km no-fly trip emitting the lowest possible amount of CO2.I want to know I did all I possibly could to prevent climate breakdown.I enjoy the beauty of the sunset one last time. 96/

    I slow travel mainly to reduce my carbon footprint (by 10 times according to available estimates: see ourworldindata.org/travel-carb ) but also to experience travel as most people in this world do.

  4. From a recent post looking for PhD theses databases across Europe, I got lots of boosts (thanks) but only returns from very few European countries. So I wonder : how many active scientists (lets say having published one peer-reviewed paper in the last five years) are on mastodon from the different EU countries ?
    Pools only have 10 choices, so more countries are in the next post 🙂
    please boost mainly on servers with a science theme
    And if I have missed any hashtags that are followed by many scientists, please add

  5. Bug Bounty Plattform "#HackerOne" warnt nun auch in einem offenen Brief vor den negativen Auswirkungen der geplanten #UN #Cybercrime #Konvention für #Cybersecurity #Researcher:
    "While the convention aims to enhance international collaboration against cybercriminals, Cohen writes that its vague terminology could inadvertently suppress ethical research activities."
