@IncHulk
Very well, Inc Hulk -- if that IS your real name -- a retraction you shall have, and I assure you that it IS both real and sincere:1) "You posted that Proton was pushing AI..."
Sir, if you are a man, madam, if you are not, a comment by @the_infamous higher in this thread is the only one I can find about Proton pushing Ai.
Since I didn't make that claim, I feel awkward retracting it, but you have politely asked for a retraction, and I freely give it.2) "Tuta foolishly picked it up and reposted as negative advertising..."
I am no more responsible for the actions of Tuta than I am for the posts of @the_infamous. But a retraction you have asked for, and a retraction you now have. (Full disclosure: I am not associated in any way with Tuta, other than having once signed up for a Tuta account in an attempt to migrate away from Gmail, and also I follow Tuta on the Fediverse.)3) "(to which I very object strongly, it is a trump-approach)."
I fully support your right to object however you want to anything done by Trump or any of its spellings or capitalizations. In fact, because I am myself a sufferer from Trump Derangement Syndrome, I reflexively object to anything he, they, his regime, his cabinet, his offspring, his wife, his agents or persons he has assigned have done, are now doing, or will do in the future.4) "As far as I can tell, you fabricated and unfairly blamed Jen."
Yes, I DID fabricate "Jan," NOT, "TheJen."
I don't recall blaming either Jen or TheJen for anything.
But if I did, I retract anything I might have said or written about Jen or TheJen, and wish to express contrition for having done so.
As to "Jan," though it pains me to do so, I retract any statements that I made as me pretending to be Jan, and I apologize to you and to the fictitious character Jan, that I made up.5) "Unless I have misunderstood, this is very unpleasant of you and needs to be reported, unless you post a retraction of course."
Since I am incapable of truly knowing what you understand or misunderstand, I will merely apologize for being unpleasant and strive to be less so in the future.
I hope you will find this retraction quenches your thirst to file a report, and that you will feel heard and in receipt of the respect that is your due.
May we now all, each in our own way, respect our purity of essence and conserve our precious bodily fluids.
Ramen.
Bong hits 4 Jesus.

By acknowledging the #journalism is rotted from the core by paid corporate journalists #sanewashing If paid: there is possible conflict of interest In #science: it is mandatory to declare such interests in each paper - otherwise it is a reason for paper #retraction #withdrawal It's a deep issue

Initial questions about this #retraction risk calculator:
What about negative phrases in social media posts that are NOT actually about the linked article?
What about negative posts about a paper that don’t actually link to the paper? (Screenshots, “link in comment” posts, etc.)

People have been citing this #glyphosate paper for 25 years! -- "The #retraction notice cited documents made public through litigation in the U.S. that suggest employees of Monsanto, which makes Roundup, may have helped write the article without proper acknowledgment — a practice known as #ghostwriting. The documents also suggest Monsanto may have paid the study's authors."

🎉🔍 Look out, world! A #groundbreaking, "influential" #study on #glyphosate #safety has finally been retracted after only a quarter of a century. Because, you know, #science is all about being #timely and accurate... eventually. 🔬⏳

You know all of those recent results showing glyphosate / RoundUp are dangerous?
And how some apologists retort "yeah well we have decades of data not showing harm"?
Turns out that old data that purportedly demonstrates safety was falsified!!!

#ThirdIron has just announced a nice advancement in #retraction notification. Now, data about articles which cite one or more retracted articles have been added to #LibKey.
If a paper cites one or more #retractedarticles, LibKey will display an interstitial screen indicating which #citations have been retracted.

Trop gros, trop cher, trop moche..., le système de publications scientifiques est à bout de souffle. Un article de "niche" pour passer un bon été :https://www.lemonde.fr/sciences/article/2025/07/07/le-monde-des-revues-scientifiques-au-bord-de-l-asphyxie_6619660_1650684.html
(allez au bout car il y a des messages d'espoirs...)et en bonus, un "appui" sur l'usage de l'IA qui n'arrange rien,

Eleven studies by Spanish scientist Rafael Luque are retracted due to fraudulent practices.
A new tool reveals the alleged cheating committed for years by the chemist, who was suspiciously prolific.
With his 11 studies eliminated by publishers, he is already “in the top 0.1% of the most retracted authors of all time”.

A Call for Retraction: The Recent American Psychologist Article on Antisemitism
"In sum, given the many identified shortcomings, it is perplexing to me that the American Psychologist accepted this article in its current form. In my view, its publication in a premier scholarly journal now lends unwarranted credibility to the authors’ questionable analysis of antisemitism — a critically important issue. Furthermore, I am deeply concerned that the unsubstantiated discrediting of individuals and groups distressed by the real-world consequences of Israel’s assault on Gaza can further endanger lives and set back the pursuit of a just peace."

Reflecting that I started using #NightshiftEditor 2+ years ago:
https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7224353965084217344/Main point of my first post then was that there are tools to help avoiding unwanted references to retracted papers such as the #RetractionWatch data base
https://retractionwatch.com/retraction-watch-database-user-guide/and you can link tools such as @zotero https://www.zotero.org/blog/retracted-item-notifications/
or since last year even #Endnote:

The oldest pyramids in the world? Or maybe not, if the authors radiocarbon dated unrelated soil organic matter?
