Die #USWahl steht kurz bevor: @ckatzenbach spricht im @breitband-Podcast über die Rolle von X im Wahlkampf. Wie wirksam ist gezieltes #Targeting im Netz & an der Haustür? Hat Musk X gekauft, um daraus eine Propaganda-Maschine zu machen?

From #disinformation to #hatespeech: The PGA has updated its collection of corporate policies of major #socialmedia platforms. Follow how rules & regulations have changed & how they affect public communication. @ckatzenbach, @achdujeh, @ZeMKI_Bremen

We are starting to cover more systematically now changes in platform policies with our Platform Governance Archive. And this first one, is a very important one: YouTube now longer regulating misinformation with regard to the US election, following the Musk-led backlash.

At a time of intense debate about the politics & policy of online platforms, this year's @Platgov conference pushed participants to reimagine what platform governance can look like. @simranoff_ & @CharisPapaev cover some of the key themes that emerged. https://t.co/PpwRITWO9P
