Facing the prospect that hoaxes or misinformation could worsen a global pandemic, tech platforms are taking control of the information ecosystem like never before.

A new willingness to moderate their platforms has culminated in an industrywide effort to crack down on misinformation and push people to authoritative information at a particularly crucial time.

"So these tech platforms can claim neutrality all they want, but they have never been neutral from the very outset," she added. Part of Instagram's push on the coronavirus has been to create a"sticker" with the phrase"Stay Home." People who post to their Instagram stories with the sticker may have their posts picked up and distributed widely, encouraging others to take up social distancing.

And the masses embrace censorship. Welcome to 1984

In layman’s terms?

It’s called censoring and it’s fucked up. There will be backlash.

THANK YOU!!!! I LISTEN TO EVERY BIT OF INFORMATION I CAN GET. BECAUSE I CAN NOT TRUST realDonaldTrump OR VP . TRUMP IS NOT TAKING THIS PANDEMIC SERIOUSLY. THE INFORMATION. HE GIVES OUT CAN HURT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. HE COVER UPS INFO AND HE LIES,

Should have done this when the russians and the chinese and the trolls and the hate-groups and the far far left and the even further right ALL started their mutual agenda of chaos and entropy. And the wolves wait patiently to scavenge the remains.

About f'ing time!

Tech billionaires promise to donate 18 million masks - Business InsiderA flurry of tech CEOs, including Apple's Tim Cook, Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg, and Tesla's Elon Musk, promised to deliver millions of masks. You continue but what change is the best? Depending on overall economy plans, Apple can change quickly but not for the worse. I'd much rather get snugged in my cozy home with friends and family than fighting all the time. See.. we will spend our billions on what WE think people need instead of paying our taxes to allow professionals accounting to determine what is best for all citizens. The grift is the point . Jokowi has 50 million masks by the way. But, I don't know where they are.
