Summary: Mr. Zemlin promotes_Microsoft's_version_or_vision_of_(fake)_security;
he did this again last_month in the talk above (he’s paid to relay these
talking points by Microsoft and Snyk as Linux_Foundation sponsors) and here’s
what he said about Sheela Microsoft, his Microsoft-sponsored wife who had
defrauded a lot of people [1, 2]

Openwashing⠀✐
Posted in Deception, Marketing, Microsoft at 1:23 pm by Dr. Roy Schestowitz
As part of the openwashing_PR_stunts_so_far_this_week (paid-for press releases
and sponsored fluff disguised as “news”):
🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇LF Sonic PR⦈
One might think it’s just some random project
🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇Proprietary PR⦈
But it is actually Microsoft and the Web site of the ‘Linux’ Foundation uses
proprietary software
🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇Github Sonic⦈
Of course it’s controlled by Microsoft and its proprietary prison (GitHub),
i.e. not vendor-neutral
🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇Sonic is 404⦈
And Microsoft linked to a missing page
Summary: The Seattle puff pieces from the Linux_Foundation include openwashing
Microsoft PR for Microsoft, amplifying deceit; to make matters worse, it
promotes proprietary GitHub, a repository that is missing, and the Linux
Foundation recently moved from Free/Open Source software to a proprietary_and
outsourced_CMS (so basically everything is proprietary here, even the
announcements)

o ⚓ LinuxStans ☛ How_Linux_Changed_My_Life_(My_Linux_Journey)⠀⇛
At the risk of sounding cliche, the statement “Linux
changed my life” isn’t said lightly. It has changed not
only the course of my career but also changed the way I
think and taught me quite a few things about myself.
I never made it through high school. In fact, until
recently I haven’t been to school since I was 15. I’m 31
now. But a few years back while working at an Iron
foundry I met someone who was an advocate of open-source
software and Linux. He ran a non-profit on the side which
taught Linux. He used Slackware, which is what I started
with at first. He even gave me a laptop with Slackware
Linux on it.
With a lot of patience, and when I say a lot I mean more
than most people have the sanity for, this man did his
best to teach me the terminal and bash scripting, from
the simple to the advanced, he tried his best. I wouldn’t
say I’m a bad student, just a student with a thicker
skull who 8 out of 10 times has to just learn things the
hard way.
So I wouldn’t suggest Slackware being the first distro to
start with. But starting with it was like sink or swim
rather than starting at the shallow end and learning
slowly, it was more like being tossed into the deep end.
But every Sunday I went to the non-profit and learned
what I could and practiced throughout the week.
o § Desktop/Laptop⠀➾
# ⚓ CRN ☛ ‘Dream_Come_True’:_IGEL_Exits_Hardware_Business_|
CRN⠀⇛
IGEL, a maker of well-engineered thin client
hardware devices for two decades, is exiting that
business as part of an all-out drive to make its
popular Linux secure edge operating system the
standard for Windows workspace computing across any
device or cloud.
o § Instructionals/Technical⠀➾
# ⚓ Linux Capable ☛ How_to_Install_Snap/Snap-Store_on_Fedora
37/36/35⠀⇛
By default, Fedora does not come with Snap or Snap
Store installed as this is a feature that was built
by developed by Canonical as a faster and easier
way to get the latest versions of software
installed on Ubuntu systems, and Snap packages are
installed from a central SNAP server operated by
Canonical. Snap can be installed and, for the most
part, work with most packages on Fedora-based
systems that are currently actively supported.
# ⚓ Manuel Matuzovic ☛ Day_37:_cascade_layers⠀⇛
Let’s say we’re using a combination of a tag and an
attribute selector for styling e-mail input fields.
This declaration is part of our base stylesheet and
comes early in the stylesheet. Later in the
document, we want to use a class to overwrite parts
of the base styling: [...]
# ⚓ uni Toronto ☛ It’s_useful_to_think_about_a_‘ground_up’
recovery_of_your_environment⠀⇛
One of the things that many system administrators
don’t like to think about is a total loss scenario
for their entire environment. For people who run
physical hardware, what you’d do if your machine
room or data center had a fire; for people with
virtual hardware, what you’d do if your entire
cloud (short of your ‘offsite backups’) was wiped
or deleted. Often we push this off as Disaster
Recovery and then punt on it, because a real DR
plan is both a lot of detailed work and also
something that often doesn’t survive contact with
reality unless you really, really care about DR
(care enough to budget for it and test your plans
and so on). However, I’d like to advocate for the
exercise of thinking through what it would take in
your environment.
# ⚓ Terence Eden ☛ How_to_search_Mastodon_by_date_&_time⠀⇛
I’m trying to build something similar for the
Mastodon social network. Yes, I know it is new to
you – but some of us have been there for several
years.
So here’s how to search Mastodon for posts made on
specific dates!
# ⚓ Linux Capable ☛ How_to_Install_qView_on_Fedora_37/36/35⠀⇛
qView is a free, open-source image viewer designed
to be minimal and space-efficient with super-fast
opening images. The image viewer features no
cluttered interface, just your image with a title
bar containing features such as animated GIF
controls for easy viewing on any device. For more
information about what qView features and looks
like before installing it, visit the qView website,
which features some great examples of the image
viewer in action.
In the following small tutorial, you will learn how
to install qView on Fedora 37/36/35 Linux desktop
using the command line terminal with tips about
installing the alternative development version and
removing the application if required in the future.
# ⚓ HowTo Geek ☛ How_to_Find_the_PID_of_a_Linux_Process_With
pidof_or_pgrep⠀⇛
Working with a Linux process often means knowing
its process ID, or PID. It’s a unique number given
to each piece of running software. Here are two
ways to find out what it is.
# ⚓ Network World ☛ How_to_use_errexit_|_Network_World⠀⇛
In this Linux tip, we’re going to look at a bash
option that will cause a script to exit any time it
encounters an error. It’s called “errexit.”
# ⚓ TecMint ☛ How_to_Install_Latest_Python_3.11_in_Ubuntu⠀⇛
Python is the fastest-growing major general-purpose
programming language. There are a number of reasons
attributed to this, such as its readability and
flexibility, ease to learn and use, reliability,
and efficiency as well.
There are two major Python versions being used – 2
and 3 (the present and future of Python); the
former will see no new major releases, and the
latter is under active development and has already
seen a lot of stable releases over the last few
years. The latest stable release of Python 3 is
version 3.11.
# ⚓ FOSSLinux ☛ How_to_install_and_use_MongoDB_Compass_|_FOSS
Linux⠀⇛
MongoDB Compass is an excellent tool for anyone who
does not know how to analyze and alter data using
command-line queries. MongoDB Compass is simple to
download and install on major operating systems. It
is a simple procedure that takes little time.
This article will explain how to install and use
MongoDB Compass and discuss its essential features.

# ⚓ Linux Capable ☛ How_to_Install_Wike_on_Fedora_37/36/35⠀⇛
Wike is a lightweight and open-source Wikipedia
reader app for Linux-based GNOME desktops and uses
the MediaWiki API to fetch content from Wikipedia.
The app has a minimalist interface, with just a
search bar and a sidebar for navigation, and
articles are displayed in a simple, easy-to-read
format. Wike also supports dark mode, so you can
easily read articles at night or in low-light
conditions.
The following tutorial will teach you how to
install Wike on Fedora 37/36/35 Linux using a COPR
repository using the command line terminal with cli
commands for those looking for a fast and
lightweight way to view Wikipedia articles on their
Linux desktop.
# ⚓ Linux Capable ☛ How_to_Install_CMake_on_Fedora_37/36/35⠀⇛
CMake is a well-known compiler that has gained much
popularity in recent years. The main reason for its
popularity is that it is open-source and cross-
platform, so developers can use it on any operating
system they want and don’t have to worry about
licensing fees. Additionally, CMake can generate
wrappers and executables in any combination, making
it very versatile. Given Fedora is an upstream-
focused distribution on a six-month release
schedule, most often, the latest CMake version is
available to install, making the installation for
developers requiring the latest packages very
straightforward compared to some other Linux
Distributions.
In the following tutorial, you will learn how to
install CMake on Fedora 37/36/35 Linux workstation
or server using the command line terminal with two
methods: dnf package manager with the native app-
stream or compile method.

When running Windows applications on Linux, Wine is
a popular software many people use. However, one of
the issues with Wine is that it can be pretty time-
consuming and prone to errors when setting up
required configurations for each application.
Thankfully, a great program called PlayOnLinux can
make your life much easier by providing automated
installation of popular apps. This can be a massive
benefit for those new to using Linux or who don’t
want to spend a lot of time setting things up.
Fedora is one distribution that makes it easy to
install PlayOnLinux with the application being
available in the default repositories.

o ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Mastodon_Comes_To_The_IBM_PC_|_Hackaday⠀⇛
Elon Musk has bought Twitter for an eye-watering sum, and
his live adventures in chaotic mismanagement of a social
media company have become a compelling performance for
the rest of us. As we munch on our tasty popcorn and
enjoy the show, many Twitter users have jumped ship for
the open-source alternative Mastodon. It offers much to
the escapee including instances tailored to particular
communities, but aside from all that it’s got something
Twitter never had. You can now use a Mastodon client on
an IBM PC.
Many of you are no doubt looking askance at us, as you
have been Tooting for years from behind the keyboard of a
PC. But it’s likely that the PC you’re using is a generic
modern x86 machine running an up-to-date operating system
such as a GNU/Linux flavour or Microsoft Windows, by
contrast here we’re referring to the original, the daddy
of them all. Because the client we’re talking about is
DOStodon, designed to run on a real IBM PC as though it’s
the early 1980s again.
o ⚓ Wired ☛ The_Man_Behind_Mastodon_Built_It_for_This_Moment⠀⇛
Since Musk took over Twitter, Rochko has been working
long hours to keep his own server, Mastodon.Social,
running, while also preparing a major upgrade to
Mastodon, but he took time to videochat with WIRED from
his home in Germany. The conversation has been edited for
length and clarity.
o ⚓ Armin Ronacher ☛ Scaling_Mastodon_is_Impossible⠀⇛
In light of recent events at Twitter a lot of the people
that I follow (or used to follow) on that platform have
started evaluating (or moved) to Mastodon. And I also
have a Mastodon account now. But after a few days with
this thing I have a lot of thoughts on this that are too
long for a Tweet or Toot. Since some of my followers
asked though I decided do a longform version of this and
explain my dissatifaction with Mastodon a bit better.
The short version of this is that I believe that Mastodon
— more specifically federation and decentralization won’t
work out.
o ⚓ Bèr Kessels ☛ The_Fediverse_is_Inefficient_(but_that’s_a_good

Let’s address the mammoth in the room: the fediverse, the

Users don’t want to host their own servers. Even the most

I don’t want to manage it.
Moderation and user experience vary from instance to
instance. It’s hard to sustain at scale. In practice,
decentralized moderation ends up as a series of fiefdoms
without accountability (e.g., if you don’t like it, find
another server).

For many years, Firefox’s copy and paste had

when you pasted. This was traced in bug
#359303 and then bug #1769534. In recent
Firefox Nightly builds, Mozilla (finally)
changed this behavior, but the change has
created a new issue for some people, me
included. At least on Unix, there are a

Like regulators around the world, the US
Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is exploring
the possibility of new rules to protect
consumer privacy online. We’re excited to see
the FTC take this important step and ask key
questions surrounding commercial surveillance
and data security practices, from advertising
and transparency to data collection and
deceptive design practices.
Mozilla has a long track record on privacy.
It’s an integral aspect of our Manifesto,
where we state that individuals’ security and
privacy on the internet are fundamental and
must not be treated as optional. It’s
evidenced in our products and in our
collaboration with others in industry to
forge solutions to create a better, more
private online experience.
But we can’t do it alone. Without rules of
the road, sufficient incentive won’t exist to
shift the rest of the industry to more
privacy preserving practices. To meet that
need, we’ve called for comprehensive privacy
legislation like the American Data Privacy
and Protection Act (ADPPA), greater ad
transparency, and strong enforcement around
the world. In our latest submission to the
FTC, we detail the urgent need for US
regulators and policymakers to take action to
create a healthier internet.

Because if you cannot, testing it becomes
impossible. When X is some external service, or

# ⚓ Lawrence Tratt ☛ More_Evidence_for_Problems_in_VM_Warmup⠀⇛
VMs start programs running in an interpreter where
they observe which portions run frequently. Those
portions are then compiled into machine code which
can then be used in place of the interpreter. The
period between starting the program and all of the
JIT compilation completing is called the warmup
time. Once warmup is complete, the program reaches
a steady state of peak performance.
At least, that’s what’s supposed to happen: our
work showed that, on widely studied small
benchmarks, it often doesn’t. Sometimes programs
don’t hit a steady state; sometimes, if they do
reach a steady state, it’s slower than what came
before; and some programs are inconsistent in
whether they hit a steady state or not. A couple of
examples hopefully help give you an idea. Here’s an
example of a “good” benchmark from our dataset
which starts slow and hits a steady state of peak
performance: [...]

I must say, although I have not experienced all his
titles, Burns, in my opinion, has been rather consistent
in delivering a sustained level of quality and integrity,
in his bare-knuckled approach to filmmaking.
Notwithstanding superb gems like, The Civil

Discovery, Jazz, Unforgiveable Blackness: The Rise and
Fall of Jack Johnson, The Dust Bowl and Hemingway, his
latest endeavor, The U.S. and the Holocaust is the most
compelling film Burns has delivered. The touching three-

Germany’s inhumane assault on the European Jewish

# ⚓ Multi-ciphertext_security_degradation_for_lattices⠀⇛
Abstract. Typical lattice-based cryptosystems are
commonly believed to resist multi-target attacks.
For example, the New Hope proposal stated that it
avoids “all-for-the-price-of-one attacks”. An ACM
CCS 2021 paper from
Duman–Hövelmanns–Kiltz–Lyubashevsky–Seiler stated
that “we can show that AdvIND-CPA PKE ≈ Adv(n,qC )-
IND-CPA PKE ” for “lattice-based schemes” such as
Kyber, i.e. that one-out-of-many-target IND-CPA is
as difficult to break as single-target IND-CPA,
assuming “the hardness of MLWE as originally
defined for the purpose of worst-case to average-
case reductions”. Meanwhile NIST expressed concern
regarding multi-target attacks against non-lattice
cryptosystems.
This paper quantifies the asymptotic impact of
multiple ciphertexts per public key upon existing
heuristic analyses of known lattice attacks. The
qualitative conclusions are that typical lattice
PKEs asymptotically degrade in heuristic multi-
ciphertext IND-CPA security as the number of
ciphertexts increases. These PKE attacks also imply
multi-ciphertext IND-CCA2 attacks against typical
constructions of lattice KEMs. This shows a
contradiction between (1) the existing heuristics
and (2) the idea that multi-target security matches

the ups and downs of mega-deals including
Australia’s ‘Super League’ war, the collapse of
One.Tel, the rise of Realestate.com.au and failure
of Channel Ten – some of the best and worst moments
of Lachlan’s career. This edited extract from Paddy

An analysis released Tuesday finds that rich
countries are allowing multinational corporations
to dodge at least $89 billion in taxes every year
by not requiring firms to publicly disclose how
much of their profits they are shifting to tax
havens.
The Tax Justice Network’s latest assessment of the
state of global taxation castigates the
Organization for Economic Cooperation and
Development (OECD)—often described as “the rich
countries’ club”—for failing to uphold basic tax
transparency standards in the decade since the G20
directed OECD nations to collect and disclose
country-by-country data on corporate profit
shifting.

There is also concern, Wray said in response to a
question, that the Chinese government could
“control the recommendation algorithm, which could
be used for influence operations … or to control
software on millions of devices, which gives the
opportunity to potentially technically compromise
personal devices.”
In written testimony, Wray called the foreign

# ⚓ The Nation ☛ Elon_Musk_Doesn’t_Understand_Twitter’s_Real
Value⠀⇛
The confluence of events is revealing of social
media’s broader arc over the past 15 years. What
started as a space for banalities quickly evolved
into a space for connection and political
organizing. The Arab Spring was not the only social
movement to use sharing platforms to raise
international awareness of their cause. Movements
like #BlackLivesMatter in the United States,
#BringBackOurGirls in Nigeria, and #MyDressMyChoice
in Kenya used Twitter to bring their local messages
to the world. In Kenya and Senegal, groups used
Twitter to crowdsource parallel vote tallying and
independent election monitoring, improving election
outcomes. But while the future of the platform has
always been precarious—its growth long ago outpaced
its owners’ understanding of how it should
function—Musk represents a new, urgent threat to
the company.

those in corporate roles, including people working

resources, according to Karen Weise’s reporting in
NYT.
# ⚓ Variety ☛ Face_It,_Elon:_Twitter’s_Goose_Is_Cooked⠀⇛
The only way I can wrap my head around Musk’s
conduct is to psychoanalyze it thusly: He isn’t
serving as CEO so much as he is playing the part of
a CEO. Similar to the way Donald Trump comported
himself while in the Oval Office, Musk seems to be
less interested in reviving the company than he is
doing anything possible to create drama that yields
something even more important to him than revenue:
attention.
And no company can survive this kind of insanity.
Not that I think Twitter is literally going to
cease to exist. While speculation is rampant right
now that its state of technical disrepair will see
the platform combust in a puff of smoke any day
now, I think we’re about to be watching something
worse: Twitter’s inevitable fade over the course of
multiple years. More whimper than bang.

In a midterm election year where Democrats were

Wisconsin’s Third Congressional District shaped up
as something of a bright spot. A rural, small-town,

2022 for an open-seat contest between a noisy
conservative Republican named Derrick Van Orden,
who won 48 percent of the vote in 2020, and
Democrat Brad Pfaff, a state senator with a track
record of leadership on farm issues.

of a number of progressive candidates who have been

what the group called a “corporate power crisis” in
the United States.
“Legislators have the next two years to enact an
economic populist, pro-democracy agenda—one that
breaks through partisan divides—that would
rebalance power away from monopolies, corporate
special interests, and Wall Street,” said the
organization as it unveiled its Corporate Power

Last month, Biden issued a “full, complete, and
unconditional pardon to all current United States

of simple marijuana possession under federal law.
The move affected more than 6,500 people, but
noncitizen immigrants were excluded from relief and
remain vulnerable to deportation for the same

Well, well, well. As you may recall, back in 2019
Devin Nunes and his bumbling lawyer Steven Biss
sued Esquire magazine and reporter Ryan Lizza
because Nunes really did not like this article
about Nunes’ parents and their family farm, which
is actually in Iowa, rather than California as many
people believed. It’s an interesting article, in
large part because of the way the town sort of
freaked out when they realized Lizza was working on
an article. The headline of the article talks about
a “politically explosive secret,” and I took it to
mean the fact that the farm that Nunes’ regularly
talked about had (very quietly) moved to Iowa,
rather than staying in California. But, there is at
least a vague suggestion that the farm might hire
undocumented workers, since that was standard
practice for farms in that part of Iowa. Lizza’s
article doesn’t come out and say that, but it does
note this:

Israeli Foreign Minister Benny Gantz suggested the

It would be the first time the government has
endeavored to do so, despite plenty of studies
finding that the issue is a major problem. Over 140
years after Reconstruction saw slave patrols reform
as Southern police departments, a 2006 FBI report
warned of a new tide of “White Supremacist
Infiltration of Law Enforcement.” Hate groups, the
paper noted, have long found police departments to
be fertile recruitment grounds, but there was now
evidence of “self-initiated efforts by…those
already within law enforcement ranks, to volunteer
their professional resources to white supremacist
causes.” Three years later, a Department of
Homeland Security report predicted that the white
backlash to a Black president might become “the
most dangerous domestic terrorism threat in the
United States”; the report was rescinded in the
face of conservative outrage. By 2015, an internal
FBI counterterrorism guide admitted that agency
investigations of white supremacist and other
domestic terrorist groups “often have identified
active links to law enforcement officers.”

environment from Ubuntu 18.04 onwards. However, in
the recent release of Ubuntu 22.10 onwards, Ubuntu
Unity became the official flavour as a spin.
However, installing Unity desktop in Arch Linux was

# ⚓ TecAdmin ☛ Stop_–_Remove_All_Docker_Container’s_–
TecAdmin⠀⇛
Docker containers are great for many reasons, but
one of the biggest advantages is that they can be
stopped and started at any time. This means that
you can easily remove a container if it’s no longer
needed or you want to upgrade or reconfigure your
system. And because Docker containers are
lightweight and run in their own isolated
environment, there’s no need to worry about having
too much overhead on your system.
So when it comes time to clean up after using
Docker, it’s important to remove all of the
containers first before starting the process of
removing Docker itself. Otherwise, you may find
yourself with a mess on your hands.

One possible answer is the corporate research lab. More

Perhaps most famous is Bell Labs’ invention of the

But corporate laboratories have tended to be more
associated with dominant firms that could afford to let
large staffs work on very forward-looking and speculative
research projects. After all, Bell Labs was born of the
AT&T telephone monopoly. Corporate labs also aren’t known
for playing with their counterparts elsewhere in

looking to profit from their IP eventually, which also
means that their research is often rooted in technologies

GNU lightning 2.2.0 released!
GNU lightning is a library to aid in making
portable programs
that compile assembly code at run time.
Development:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/lightning.git
Download release:
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/lightning/lightning-
2.2.0.tar.gz
GNU Lightning 2.2.0 extends the 2.1.4 release
adding support for
Darwin aarch64, tested on Apple M1.
Now there is the new --enable-devel-strong-type-
checking configure
option, not enabled by default, but code that works
with that option
will work on Apple M1.
This release required significant rework as the
Apple abi in aarch64
requires arguments to be truncated and zero/sign
extended, unlike all
other ports. Jit generation will understand it, and
use the system ABI,
avoiding double truncate and zero/sign extension.
Due to the significant rework, the library major
number was bumped,
and the opportunity used to reorder the jit_code_t
enumeration.

government has denied its responsibility and
showed not results or signs of a full
investigation of this case of espionage.

Computer code developed by a company called

smartphone apps. The company pretends to be
American when it is actually Russian.

Thousands of smartphone applications in Apple
(AAPL.O) and Google’s (GOOGL.O) online stores
contain computer code developed by a technology
company, Pushwoosh, that presents itself as based
in the United States, but is actually Russian,
Reuters has found.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC), the United States’ main agency for fighting
major health threats, said it had been deceived
into believing Pushwoosh was based in the U.S.
capital. After learning about its Russian roots
from Reuters, it removed Pushwoosh software from
seven public-facing apps, citing security concerns.

raises_concerns⠀⇛
Until last Saturday, it was Melissa Ingle’s job to
help keep Twitter safe.
As a member of the company’s “civic integrity”
team, the data scientist monitored the platform for
political misinformation about elections from
Brazil to the US, and she wrote algorithms to
automatically detect similar content.
“We wanted to make sure Twitter was a healthy
platform,” Ingle told DW.
Then, on November 12, a notification popped up on
her phone, telling her she no longer had access to
her work emails. When she realized that she had
also been logged out of her Slack account, the 48-
year-old knew she had been fired. She wasn’t alone.
Thousands of other contract workers had their
contracts terminated last weekend, in addition to
about 3,700 employees Twitter had already fired
earlier this month.
“The cuts didn’t really seem to be targeted,” Ingle
told DW. “It seems to be huge swaths of people who
were just fired.”

# ⚓ Public Knowledge ☛ Should_Algorithms_Be_Regulated?_Part_3:
Evaluating_Alternative_Frameworks_for_Regulating_Algorithms_–
Public_Knowledge⠀⇛
This is the third in a series of blog posts from
Public Knowledge examining the public policy
implications of algorithmic decision-making. A
first post clarified what algorithms are and aren’t
and identified some basic principles for attempting
to regulate algorithmic decision-making, especially
as it relates to content distribution. The second
post cataloged the harms that can arise from
algorithmic decision-making, including (1) harms to
safety and well-being; (2) harms to economic
justice; and (3) harms to democratic participation.
(We’ve also written in other forums about the
harmful consequences of unregulated, unproven AI.)
In this post and the accompanying policy framework,
we seek to assess various theories of change and
related policy frameworks for creating
accountability for algorithmic decision-making. We
describe each approach’s drawbacks and benefits and
put forward Public Knowledge’s perspective.
Spoiler alert: There is no single or simple
solution for the complex questions our exploration
has raised. As you’ll see in our framework, there
are several potential approaches for trying to
mitigate the myriad harms algorithmic decision-
making about content can create through direct
regulation of algorithms. But most of them face
substantial hurdles, particularly those that entail
or even approach the regulation of user-generated
content – most of which is protected speech. The
hurdles include constitutional challenges, patterns
of Supreme Court jurisprudence, or narrow or
ambiguous definitions that would compound the
challenges of content moderation for both platforms
and users. As a Federal Trade Commission report on
combating online harms noted, “governments,
platforms, and others must exercise great caution”
and focus attention on a broad array of
considerations before turning to regulation to
mitigate online harms.

Congress_To_Rein_in_Big_Tech_by_Passing_Popular_Bipartisan
Antitrust_Bills [Ed: This organisation had the audacity to

even use Microsoft's lobbying term "Big Tech"]⠀⇛
Today, Public Knowledge joined 45 public interest
and civil society groups in a letter urging Senate
Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Senate
Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), Speaker
Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), and Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-
CA) to pass the “American Innovation and Choice
Online Act” and “Open App Markets Act” to rein in
Big Tech. The groups call on Congress to pass these
widely supported, bipartisan antitrust bills this
year before the current congressional session
closes.
[...]
“The bills are also incredibly popular with the
American people and people around the world who
depend on digital platforms. Poll after poll has
shown the public [is] fed up with Big Tech’s
unchecked power and eager to support members
getting tough with them. In a recent poll, 77
percent of voters agreed Big Tech was too powerful
and 65 percent were more likely to support their
representative [for voting] for greater Big Tech
regulation.
“As history writes the final chapters of the 117th
Congress, you face a consequential choice on how it
concludes. Passing the American Innovation and
Choice Online Act and the Open App Markets Act
would mark a triumphant, bipartisan and politically
popular win. The choice is yours.”
