The final paper from the honeypot experiments has just been published in Child Abuse and Neglect: "The effect of therapeutic and deterrent messages on Internet users attempting to access ‘barely legal’ pornography" https://t.co/zdpMXQDlgt

[That's What I Call Science 🎙 @ThatsScienceTAS]

What is standing between harmful online content and the person trying to access it? The answer is not much. Dr Joel Scanlan and colleagues have developed a ChatBot that acts as a conscience for consumers. Popping up to steer them in the right direction.

New research: A @UTAS_ report shows that a chatbot and warning message can reduce the number of online searches to find sexual images of children.

Developed with @IWFhotline and trialled on the Pornhub website, read about the ground-breaking #Chatbot: https://t.co/M59enAMIKM

Really proud to be involved with this project.

A reminder that Elsevier made $10.5 BILLION in 2022 from selling your academic journals and articles behind paywalls, and make more profit than Amazon, Google, and Apple every year…

And paid the academics who wrote the articles $0
And paid the reviewers of the articles $0

"Bullying is a means for mediocre scientists to rise to the top. Some star academics reached their position because they are bullies, not in spite of it." - Excellent piece about bullying in academia (and really any other professional environment). https://t.co/JTqGBaAuuf
