If you absolutely can not live without X or Insta or TikTok for "work" consider running them in your mobile phones browser instead of installing the app.

That will still run code from an untrusted source on your device, but within the confines of your browser.

It is getting worse every day.
usaid.gov has gone dark.
Life-saving humanitarian aid programs are halted.
And the infamous billionaire is calling for #USAID “to die”

This is just a level of madness that I could have never imagined…

Science is political. It wouldn't necessarily have to be partisan.

But when one party is opposed to science-based policy, scientists have a choice between saying "you're right, thoughts and prayers are probably as effective as reducing carbon emissions" or saying "fuck that."

At some point, it might be more useful to stop framing #X, #Meta, #TikTok, & everything happening in current #SocialMedia developments under the term #Disinformation & instead call it what it is: #Propaganda. #Apparatus – they're building it in plain sight.

Heute wird eine Studie zur Verbesserung wirksamer Beteiligung in Wien bei der AK Stadttagung vorgestellt.
