Facebook is blocking readers from sharing The Nerd Reich newsletter.

I assumed this was a simple error rather than nefarious censorship.

But Meta support says my newsletter might be blocked because it "addresses topics like the 'Network State' concept and critiques of tech industry figures." 👀

I often say there's lots of low-hanging fruit where research could answer important qs with well-designed studies, but they don't happen bc of poor incentives, neglected areas, etc.

@ruben.the100.ci suggested writing a thread of 'studies I would fund in a heartbeat'. So here is an ongoing thread.

@profmusgrave.bsky.social add me to polisky.

Thanks
