  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.

  8. #Research #participation opportunity:

    Finally, we are partnering with a student #researcher from the Department of #Sociology at the University of Victoria who is conducting a #study on deep engagement within #SeedLibraries. They are seeking participants for approximately one-hour interviews (in person or online — to be conducted in the next couple weeks) who have interacted with the previous iteration of the #VictoriaSeedLibrary. If you’re interested in learning more or participating, please contact Hannah Lister at [email protected]

  10. What would actually happen if we discovered a message from aliens? (BBC Science Focus Magazine)

    The SETI mission is scouring the skies for signs of extraterrestrial life. So what will the researchers do when they receive a signal, and will they send a message back?
