Among the reasons I’m burned out and inimical to tech now is in my last job I watched social media companies fund meaningful outside research into halting the use of their platforms by terrorists and violent extremists at a platform design level and then ignore it all or do the exact opposite.
for all this social media research we have we sure don't actually use it to inform the social media we build

Gosh NYT, perhaps you shouldn’t have spent the past 10 years platforming ‘campus wokeness is an assault on free speech’ narratives with nothing but a handful of constantly regurgitated anecdotes to back them up. You helped create the environment for this.
College professors once taught free from political interference. Now, they are being watched by state officials, senior administrators and students themselves. The increased oversight comes as conservatives expand their movement to curb what they say is a liberal tilt in university classrooms.
How Universities and States Are Increasing Surveillance of Professors
Scrutiny of university classrooms is being formalized, with new laws requiring professors to post syllabuses and tip lines for students to complain.

The final, posthumous article of journalist Carlos Hernández: “objectivity is not the same as neutrality. If there is an aggressor and a victim, a liar and an honest person, a corrupt individual and an honourable one, then your task is to describe all that clearly and forcefully.

Remind our leaders what people want them to protect: clean air, safe water, and our health 💧

Why? Because right now, they are handing out permits to poison our water, food, and nature 🤢

Don't let that happen. Sign our petition now: handsoffnature.eu#take-action

People fleeing war deserve safety, not forced deportations. Tell EU to reject the dangerous, inhumane law that would put people at risk: action.wemove.eu/sign/2026-01...
EU, don’t deport people to unsafe countries!
Europe could soon adopt a dangerous policy. People would be deported to countries they’ve never been to - without a fair hearing. Add your voice and tell EU leaders: protect the right to asylum!

Van het CPB, tot de woonbond en zelfs Johan Derksen - ze zeggen allemaal het zelfde: GL-PvdA heeft de beste woonplannen.

Dat is ook niet gek, want bouwen zit in ons DNA. We hebben het eerder ook gedaan. Nu kunnen we het weer. Aan de slag voor de sociale meerderheid!
