A prison investigation into Twitter has been initiated by French prosecutors, over allegations that its algorithm is manipulated for the needs of “overseas interference.”
The probe focuses on claims that Twitter’s algorithms have been altered to distort consumer discourse and doubtlessly mislead customers. Hmm… as if!!!
Earlier this 12 months Elon Musk’s web site was accused of spreading “an infinite quantity of hateful, racist, anti-LGBT+ and homophobic political content material, which goals to skew the democratic debate in France.”
The prison investigation can also be trying into if Twitter/X fraudulently extracted knowledge from customers.
I’d wish to see extra organisations (and certainly governments) ditch Twitter/X completely, and go someplace extra optimistic as a substitute. Bluesky anyone? Mastodon?
