Elon Musk & Twitter thread (updates) -- free speech and information control unrest

[Kornee]

"EU sources have also said that the shortage of Irish-speaking moderators among some of the biggest social media firms may have resulted in far-right activists deliberately using Irish in their posts in order to avoid them being removed.

X, YouTube and Tiktok have all reported employing no, or very few, Irish-language content moderators."

yes ,thanks twitter for the non existent Irish language moderation  that seem to have  facilitated the organisers of the racist riots last week.

Are we allowed to say "fuck  you  twitter,fuck you Musk" here?

Oh dear - a recent addition to the standard PC mentality here at SV. "FU twiiter/Elon"? Really? But thanks for the link making clear the latest furthering of ongoing EU oppressive power grab.
This bod has it mostly together in the right perspective - imo:

According to the sources rattling around in your head "the ((globalists)) want white people to go extinct" -or maybe take their medications

Twitter allowed 755,000 shared tweets to wrongly identify the suspect as another man who may have a claim against the original tweeter Grift.ie

Still the suspect is still apparently Algerian so that will please the "modern survivalists"

No need to double post for emphasis - or maybe just a typo thingy. Thing is - yes of course the so-called Great Replacement 'conspiracy theory' is actually hard reality unfolding before everyone's eyes.
Native Europeans are waking up to the harsh truth and naturally object strongly. As they should.

As for a wrong identification by a poster on X formerly twitter, well you could have mentioned that in your earlier post, but didn't. Context matters.

The wrong identification only came out today .I heard something on the radio and I didn't mention it because I hadn't checked it out .

As for your apparently ,to you respectable " Great Replacement " theory I would laugh if it wasn't so sick.

Don't bother answering as I won't engage.

Fine don't engage. At least your perfectly PC ideological bent has now been firmly displayed. Understood.

[geordief]

I just saw this reply from Twitter to accusations from the government that it did not engage with the Police.

https://www.rte.ie/news/ireland/2023/120...lin-riots/

The truth will hopefully out on this particular issue but the first thing I noticed on that twitter feed was the horrendous echo chamber with zero contrary opinion to the Musk character.and the perceived slight on Twitter.

Like a cast of groupies baying for self validation.

No reasoned debate of any kind but the circle of jerkdom writ large.

The EU [supposedly] has much stricter standards that it forces social media platforms to comply to, which it has admonished X/Twitter about since a year ago (excerpts further down).

But the "no excuses" level of obligation for social media platforms in the EU actually comes early next year. Unlike what Wikipedia claims at bottom, they've apparently moved the 2024 deadline from January 1st to Feburary 17th, or it doesn't have maximum effectiveness until then.

If in reality the Digital Services Act is somewhat lacking teeth yet, then no surprise that -- due to its multiple radical transitional phases over the last year -- X is lagging behind in modifying itself to fit EU requirements (and maybe even its own guidelines). In comparison to other platforms that supposedly complied with respect to this episode.

[...] "She said very clearly that social media companies, in particular TikTok and Meta, they were responding, engaging with gardaí and taking down these vile posts as they came up. X were not. They didn't engage. They did not fulfil their own community standards," Ms McEntee said in the Dáil.

[...] "The platforms indicated that they responded quickly to the spread of illegal content on their services," Coimisiún na Meán said."However we remain concerned about the spread of misinformation and disinformation online, and its real-world impacts."

[...] "Our enforcement powers under the Digital Services Act will be become fully effective from the 17th February 2024. As noted in our statement of the 1st December last, we continue to meet with these platforms, to learn more about procedures for dealing with disinformation and misinformation, and to ensure that when we become fully operational in February 2024, we can work effectively with the European Commission to keep people safe online."

(Nov 30, 2022) Twitter must comply with Europe’s platform rules, EU digital chief warns Musk in virtual meeting
https://www.cnn.com/2022/11/30/tech/twit...index.html

INTRO: A top European Union official warned Twitter owner Elon Musk on Wednesday that the social media platform must take significant steps to comply with EU content moderation laws, and that European officials will be monitoring closely for compliance.

Twitter has “huge work ahead” to meet its obligations under the Digital Services Act, Europe’s new platform regulation, said Thierry Breton, the EU’s digital chief, in a readout of his meeting with Musk.

“Twitter will have to implement transparent user policies, significantly reinforce content moderation and protect freedom of speech, tackle disinformation with resolve, and limit targeted advertising,” Breton said in a statement. “All of this requires sufficient AI and human resources, both in volumes and skills. I look forward to progress in all these areas and we will come to assess Twitter’s readiness on site.”

During Wednesday’s meeting, Musk agreed to let EU officials “stress test” the social media platform for compliance with the DSA early next year, Breton added.

(Aug 30, 2023) New EU Social Media Guidelines Go Into Effect
https://www.techrepublic.com/article/eu-...gulations/

INTRO: Beginning Friday, August 25, users of X (formerly Twitter), TikTok and the other large social media apps in the European Union saw major changes to those platforms. The largest social media apps, search engines and app stores in the EU now fall under the jurisdiction of the Digital Services Act. Friday was the deadline set by the European Union for companies named Very Large Online Platforms or Very Large Online Search Engines to change how their AI and advertising work.

Two major effects of the DSA can be seen right away: increased scrutiny of the ways in which misinformation can spread and a return to chronological social media feeds as opposed to automated recommendations.

The online platforms affected are Alibaba AliExpress, Amazon Store, Apple AppStore, Booking.com, Facebook, Google Play, Google Maps, Google Shopping, Instagram, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Snapchat, TikTok, X (listed as Twitter), Wikipedia, YouTube, the European clothing retailer Zalando, Bing and Google Search.

Digital Services Act

Affected service providers will have until 1 January 2024 to comply with its provisions. Popular online platforms and search engines will need to comply with their obligations four months after they have been designated as such by the EU Commission.
