Den screenshot kann man leider nur mit Lupe lesen. Ich kleb mal einen grösseren dran. Mehr von #FragDenStaat ⬇️ fragdenstaat.de/anfrage/w-so...

@[email protected] provided a screenshot of the same message praising W Social appearing under different names #wsocial #bots #fakehumans #opinionmaking

Working with bots @[email protected] made an interesting discovery: At least for German media, someone - if not Wsocial itself - is using bots to promote the so-called social media to the readers of newspapers & other media outlets in the letters to the editors / commentary section #wsocial #tech

Ich hatte nach Monaten endlich Einblick in die ungeschwärzte Untersuchung. Darin steht: Google Schweiz-Personal bietet der israelischen Regierung Beratungsdienst­leistungen an, unter anderem zum Identitäts-& Zugangs­management sowie zur Schnittstellen­integration. Und auch bei der Nutzung von KI

Was jedoch noch viel brisanter ist: Mir liegen noch weitere Dokumente vor. Das Militär hatte Fragen an den Google-Konzern kurz nach dem 7. Oktober 2023 gestellt, also kurz nach den Terror­anschlägen der Hamas gegen Israel und dem Einmarsch in Gaza.

Wenn du gegen etwas vorgehen willst, mache es auf allen Ebenen Jemand reichte über die Seite von @fragdenstaat.de eine Anfrage ein, wie es dazu kommt, dass die #Bundesdatenschutzbeauftragte #SpechtRiemenschneider im #Aufsichtsrat von #WSocial sitzt fragdenstaat.de/anfrage/w-so... #transparenz

If you're opposing something, oppose it on every level! Someone used @fragdenstaat.de & #Freedom of #information act to ask about connections of #LouisaSpechtRiemenschneider Federal Commissioner for #Data #Protection and #WSocial bc she is in the #AdvisoryBoard fragdenstaat.de/anfrage/w-so...

Schon erstaunlich, wie gut die PR von #WSocial funktioniert: Breiteste Berichterstattung sogar in Fernsehnachrichten bei unkritischer Wiederholung der Talking Points des Startups plus Werbetweets durch von der Leyen. Dabei sollte man schon genauer hinschauen: netzpolitik.org/2026/soziale...

I recently had the privilege of speaking with Geert Lovink about my book Kybernetik und Kritik (Cybernetics and Critique @suhrkamp.de). It is certainly the longest and most in-depth interview about the book so far, and participating in it was a great pleasure: networkcultures.org/geert/2026/0...

Just read that Estland is planning to give "AI"-Agents E-IDs comparable to the IDs people get. The fact that "AI" as a narrative is used to undermine human rights and dignity in order to allow even more creep of non-democratic technology into our lives is really undeniable these days.

If you are an academic researcher thinking about democratic utopias: There's an essay/story competition going where you can still submit your ideas for a few days. https://www.hiig.de/en/call-for-submissions-twentyfifty/

@amnesty.org very based: "Amnesty International finds that standalone generative AI systems, based on unlawful web scraping, depend on mass invasions of privacy by design, and are fundamentally incompatible with IHRL. As such, Amnesty International is calling for a prohibition of such systems."

[III/III] I really wonder about all the #people who joined #wsocial Most of #W social's claims are wrong, but people got excited about the network and joined anyway Maybe we should talk about a #socialmediaban for #polititicans and economic leaders…

Like #flo a #menstruation #app flo.health/about-us/ann... that collects tons of #data & shared it with companies like #Google & #Meta - had another settlement www.claimdepot.com/settlements/... More on #flohealth & the scandals: More on #flohealth and it's scandals: sites.suffolk.edu/jhtl/2024/10...

[I/III] Today #Wsocial is going public after a huge top-down campaign, including prominent people like #audreytang , #AnneApplebaum , & #ursulavonderleyen #AnnaZeiter , one of the founders, is connected to several businesses from finances to health, some with serious #datasecurity & #privacy issues

Weil aus unerfindlichen Gründen hier so viele auf diese "W Social" anspringen, nochmal klar und deutlich: Die sind böse! www.blick.ch/digital/anna... (via @katika.eurosky.social)

[II/II] www.blick.ch/digital/anna... #wSocial tries to become a new #Tech #empire by pulling on their personal networks & riding the problematic term of #European #Sovereignty #Lobbying the #rich & #powerful seems to pay out in the #EuropeanUnion ¯\(°_o)/¯ It is sad to see who joined…

Hi #bluesky, @eurosky.social , #blacksky other skies! I've read you are #boring 😂 #wsocial was announcing a top-down approach to get their #network working & they are doing it In the #Blick article #AnnaZeiter explains why #AliceWeidel & other #Nazis are welcome to her #socialmedia [I/III]

[II/II] @bildoperationen.bsky.social #realnameregistration is highly dangerous & if the company #wSocial wants to have your most private data - but can't save their net from bots – they're not very trustworthy, are they? #tech #surveillance #ID #registration #socialnetwork

[I/II] #SocialMedia of #realnameregistration, oh sorry, they call it real #humans, that advertises with " #AI " #slop #wsocial is more than problematic Already has #bots crawling it's #network Now they show that they are problematic concerning #aesthetics as well & advertise w. tasteless #aislop

People love historical what if scenarios. What if JFK was never assassinated? What if the Nazis won in WW2? A scenario I never see discussed is what if the aids crisis didnt decimate the gay men of America in the 80s-90s? Its easy to forget 1 in 15 gay boomer men died. An estimated 300,000 deaths-

Hi! I am #KatikaKühnreich & I'm #newhere As an independent #scientist & #writer I work on the #socialimpact of #digitalization including the myth of " #AI ", #gamification & #ethics I'm mainly working with #Mastodon but try out #Eurosky for now My #chaos.social account is chaos.social/@katika
