@accountabletech.bsky.social’s @nicolegill.bsky.social: “NetChoice’s continued assault on tech safety makes it abundantly clear that tech companies would sooner pour millions into legal fees than protect young people from the dangers of their profit-driven algorithms.”

We must build news anew. "For MAGA Republicans, disinformation isn’t just a byproduct of unregulated tech. It’s the goal" @nicolegill.bsky.social broligarchy explainer www.techpolicy.press/big-tech-cho... Dems step up & highlight the dangers of a MAGA-aligned surveillance state! Protect our data!
The marriage of MAGA and Big Tech is an existential threat to democracy, writes Accountable Tech co-founder and executive director Nicole Gill.
Something that I think we can all agree on is that the current generation of Democratic leadership is simply not optimized for the Attention Age. Not really their fault! And honestly, they may be better people for it, but it's a pretty pressing political problem.
Trump and his his billionaire friends are making Americans less safe in order to further line their pockets.
As our Co-founder @nicolegill.bsky.social said:
"Meta has gone out of its way to show fealty to Trump...This settlement is the latest example of that — a signal that Meta is willing to do whatever it takes to appease this administration.” www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...
ah, thanks Drew!
“In the weeks following the 2024 election, Meta has gone out of its way to show fealty to Trump and join his far-right clique. This settlement is the latest example of that — a signal that Meta is willing to do whatever it takes to appease this administration.”
Would love to get Meta to explain why paying to settle Trump's suit alleging he was wrongfully booted after J6 isn't a precedent to settling cases from other users aggrieved about content moderation calls. (I've asked this one.)
Image of Accountable Tech Statement on Meta’s $25 Million January 6th Settlement that says: Accountable Tech Co-Founder and Executive Director Nicole Gill issued the following statement on Meta’s latest gift to Trump in a settlement over the platform’s decision to suspend the then-candidate for using Facebook to incite the January 6th insurrection: “Four years ago, Donald Trump used Facebook to incite a violent, deadly insurrection against the U.S. government — it’s a well-documented fact and one that Mark Zuckerberg has personally acknowledged. In the aftermath of that day, Meta joined other tech giants in suspending Trump from their platforms to prevent more violence. It was a rare show of responsible leadership from Silicon Valley that today is revealed to be no more than an empty gesture as Meta backtracks with a multi-million dollar donation to Trump’s presidential library. In the weeks following the 2024 election, Meta has gone out of its way to show fealty to Trump and join his far-right clique – gutting DEI programs, ending fact-checking, carving out exemptions for anti-LGBTQ rhetoric, and decrying attacks on so-called “free speech.” This settlement is the latest example of that – a signal that Meta is willing to do whatever it takes to appease this administration, even if it means abdicating their responsibility to protect users and the public from the harms facilitated by their platforms.”

OpenAI says it has evidence China’s DeepSeek used its model to train competitor White House AI tsar David Sacks raises possibility of alleged intellectual property theft
OpenAI says it has found evidence that Chinese artificial intelligence start-up DeepSeek used the US company’s proprietary models to train its own open-source competitor, as concerns grow over a potential breach of intellectual property. The San-Francisco-based ChatGPT maker told the Financial Times it had seen some evidence of ‘distillation’, a technique used by developers to obtain better performance on smaller models by using outputs from larger, more capable models. This allows them to achieve similar results on specific tasks at a much lower cost. OpenAI declined to comment further on details of its evidence. Its terms of service state users cannot “copy” any of its services or “use output to develop models that compete with OpenAI”.
I'm so sorry I can't stop laughing. OpenAI, the company built on stealing literally the entire internet, is crying because DeepSeek may have trained on the outputs from ChatGPT. They're crying their eyes out. What a bunch of hypocritical little babies. Cry more, freaks.

Maybe Mark Zuckerberg doesn't need a Manhattan-sized data center?
Excellent thread putting today's news about DeepSeek in context
Rep. Veronica Escobar: "We need stability, especially in neighboring countries. Tariff war, trade war -- guess what that does? It doesn't just drive up the prices for Americans consumers, but it also drives up migration."
Foreign policy by tweet, and because of two men's egos.
But because that's too much of an anathema to most Democrats (thank goodness for @aoc.bsky.social) we are currently being defined as the party with no leadership that stands for nothing.
There won't be a 2028 election unless Democrats start calling Trump's first week what it is: a string of broken promises. This doesn't mean responding to every action, but it does mean actually forming sentences without testing the bejesus out of them.
The plan is to crash the economy to suppress wages.
