90% of you probably don’t need to read this. But maybe some of you are curious & 10% will feel seen. Or a little less alone. This isn’t about seeking sympathy. It’s about sharing something hard to say out loud; partly to heal, partly in case someone needs to hear it too. (1/3) tinyurl.com/DudinO

The European Commission finds Meta and TikTok are preliminarily breaching the Digital Services Act. The DSA mandates researcher access to platform data for studying misinformation, but companies are reportedly obstructing these efforts, limiting accountability.
