Best delivery ever!! Physical galleys!

Tech bros met the tort bar. No Mr Goodbar.

Grammarly, a glorified AI spellchecker, briefly introduced a feature called “Expert Review,” where users could ask writers, dead and alive, to review their writing.

Grand Theft Grammarly! What a great headline @alixdunn.com! Listen in if you'd like 24 minutes of clean fun as we discuss my lawsuit against Grammarly for its AI theft of my name. pocketcasts.com/podcast/comp...

The tide is turning. The dollar amount in this lawsuit- $6 million - is low, but the implications are massive. Tech companies are finally being held liable for designing harmful products. My latest for @nytopinion.nytimes.com (gift link) on why this win matters. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/26/o...

Just got my hands on the first early copies of my forthcoming book with @fieldsmeyer.com -- On Courage: How to Be a Dissident in an Age of Fear! AND this week Barnes & Noble is running a pre-oder sale March 24-26. Use code PREORDER25 for 25% off! www.barnesandnoble.com/w/on-courage...

And it’s also a gift. 🎁

PSA for anyone who wants to keep up with the Grammarly lawsuit, I have a free newsletter and will provide updates there (as well as links to my NYT Opinion pieces and updates on my upcoming book). buttondown.com/JuliaAngwin/...

Important point here that AI clones don’t just violate your personality rights, they also risk your professional reputation.

Grammarly's AI-fueled edits -- using my name - suggested making up sources and writing vague insinuations. In my latest for @nytopinion.nytimes.com (gift link) I describe Grammarly's terrible edits in my name -- and call for a federal right of publicity. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/13/o...

Small update from my attorneys -- you don't need to do anything to be added to the class action. Anyone who was included as an expert in Grammarly Pro will automatically be a member of the class once it is certified by the court. Updates on the case will be posted here prf-law.com/current-case...

In other news, my forthcoming book with @fieldsmeyer.com --ON COURAGE, How to Be a Dissident in an Age of Fear -- is now available for pre-order. We interviewed 100+ dissidents worldwide to craft a practical guide to personal courage under authoritarianism. www.harpercollins.com/products/on-...

I'm suing Grammarly over its paid AI feature that presented editing suggestions as if they came from me - and many other writers and journalists - without consent. State law requires consent before someone's name can be used for commercial purposes. www.wired.com/story/gramma...

I knew I loved Denmark. First the coffee and cardamon buns. Now the ability to copyright myself to protect against deep fakes.

Wait, what?! Grammarly made an AI persona of me and all these other journalists?!!!!! Thank you @caseynewton.bsky.social for shaming them into at least offering a paltry optout— although obviously that is not enough. www.platformer.news/grammarly-ex...

This conversation with @bencollins.bsky.social about how to fight authoritarianism with fearless humor was a reminder that there is joy in the fight. And Ben claims he only cursed 21 times during our 20 minute chat. lol.

Had a brief cameo to discuss my research in this episode about the social media addiction trials! Really good listen for those interested in these cases in the US…

Very excited for all the hate I’m about to get for raising concerns about school phone bans and age verification laws. Happens every time I talk about these third rail issues.

I was so in awe on my first day at the Washington Post as an intern. It is so hard to get my head around its senseless destruction. The only silver lining is watching the donations roll in for the Washington Post staffers. Solidarity is the only way out. www.gofundme.com/f/standing-t...

I've been thinking a lot about the role of cell phones in a time like this. So I calledup @godin.bsky.social from @bellingcat.com and @juliaangwin.com to talk about it slate.com/podcasts/wha...

"Whether all is really lost or not depends entirely on whether or not I am lost." -- Václav Havel

Fun inbox this a.m. - as usual the haters are bad at spelling.

The fight in Minnesota is the fight to bear witness to state violence. The First Amendment grants us this right on paper, but it is being contested in the street. A state that controls the cameras is a police state. My latest @nytopinion.nytimes.com (gift link) www.nytimes.com/2026/01/26/o...

Flashbangs burn hotter then lava. They've caused serious burns, severed hands, and even killed. *That's* what ICE just tossed into a car full of kids. Here's our investigation from 2015, by @juliaangwin.com: www.propublica.org/article/flas...

I went greyscale a few years ago. LOVE the freedom. Wisdom via @juliaangwin.com NYT «  It may sound cheesy, but to be honest, I feel like turning off color on my phone made me more aware and more appreciative of the color and beauty in real life. » www.nytimes.com/2025/12/25/o...

“The audience has taken the wheel, and we’re all in the passenger seat now.” - @juliaangwin.com www.niemanlab.org/2025/12/audi...

My prediction for journalism in 2026: we are in a fully demand-driven news market now. Audiences drive coverage -- for better and for worse. www.niemanlab.org/2025/12/audi...

Too long for the character limit but

What if we thought of journalism as community service? @terryparrisjr.bsky.social is doing exactly that with his project to set up journalism practices in local libraries. This is exactly the experimentation we need to increase civic information and public accountability.

this is a stunning piece of data journalism/art/whatever.

Authors -- you are entitled to a payment for the books of yours that Anthropic stole for its AI. It's about $1,500 per book. I just filed - you should too! www.anthropiccopyrightsettlement.com?_gl=1*1ersia....

@alexreisner.bsky.social bringing the AI receipts - as always!

love this from @juliaangwin.com

Just a gentle reminder that the panic about phones melting our brains could well be a convenient way to justify rules that could be used to prevent us from using our phones to film state violence. www.politico.com/newsletters/...

Tomorrow! Next in our series w NYPL, D&S ED Janet Haven will talk to @cmcilwain.bsky.social, @juliaangwin.com & @catherinebracy.com about the power and potential of AI in the *public* interest. In-person spots are going fast; reserve yours or join the livestream! www.showclix.com/event/unders...

Come work with me! I'm hiring a data scientist to join me at @harvardkennedy.bsky.social @shorensteinctr.bsky.social careers.harvard.edu/job/senior-d...

Hey folks! A little bit of news from me. I'll be starting a new program at the @harvardkennedy.bsky.social @shorensteinctr.bsky.social in January focusing on how we can support and bolster the independent media that is so crucial to our democracy. shorensteincenter.org/article/inde...

This is, unfortunately, the right question — will we let our freedom be stolen? (Shameless plug: This is why I’m writing a book on how we can fight back. buttondown.com/JuliaAngwin/...)

In an era of increasing government crackdowns on speech, can we afford to entrench Google as the gatekeeper to our information landscape? My latest for @nytopinion.nytimes.com (gift link): www.nytimes.com/2025/09/26/o...

for iOS, it's Accessibility -> Display -> Color Filters flip them on and choose greyscale

I changed my phone to grayscale and I feel like I just quit meth. It's unbelievable how much less of a hold it has on me now. Highly recommend trying it!

Some exciting news to share: I’m writing a book — with the great @juliaangwin.com for HarperCollins/Mariner. ON COURAGE is a deeply reported case for courage in our age of authoritarianism, weaving the stories and lessons of dissidents on five continents into a guide for Americans. See you in 2026.

I’m thrilled to announce that @fieldsmeyer.com and I are writing a book about how to challenge authoritarianism. “On Courage: To be a Dissident in America’s Age of Fear,” is scheduled to be published by Harper Collins next summer.

It's hard to restore competition in a market that has already been crushed -- and I suspect the judge's cautious ruling requiring the very least from Google is not going to give competitors enough of a reason to jump back in to create search products. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/02/t...

If you need something hopeful and inspiring to listen to, I highly recommend this three-part @npr.org podcast series The Network about the women who transformed abortion support in South America - and how it changed the world. www.npr.org/2026/01/01/1...

"What’s currently needed is not the death-defying heroism of the French Resistance; rather, what we must avoid is the cowardice of the Vichy collaborators." A moving history & meditation by my former WSJ colleague @paulthedogman.bsky.social momentmag.com/jewish-respo...

@keyachatterjee.bsky.social has been planning for DC’s federal takeover. She founded FreeDC in January, in part, to prepare for possible martial law. “When you have an authoritarian, it matters very much if you can organize in the capital,” she said in April. www.newyorker.com/news/the-wee...

"The F.T.C. move is an attempt to tilt the media landscape in favor of the government in ways that are simply un-American. If we want a media that is willing to stand up to government, we need to fight for the right to boycott, not just for ourselves but also for advertisers."
