Off Topic Social Media and the death of Twitter

https://www.theguardian.com/media/2...in-rot-from-endless-social-media-try-our-quiz

 

I scored 5/12 - with four guesses

 

6/12 with, I am borderline proud to say, 11 guesses

 

5 for me, all guesses

 

6. Nearly all guesses (I'm proud to say)

 

4 for me, all guesses yet again I disappoint myself, mustn't try harder.


The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.

 

2 out of 10 and one of those was the Ronaldo one.

 

I got 7 but 5 were guesses

 

Interesting times with Facebook and Instagram now scrapping independent fact checkers

 

FACT


(to suck up to Trump, the incoming President of Greenland, of course)

 

Greenlands Army is ready

 

I didn't even know Facebook had independent fact checkers.

 

fact

or unfact?

 

This makes me quite angry. I don't like the way US style "free speech" (i.e. the right to say what ever you feel like even if it isn't true) is being forced on the rest of the world by a few BigTech Oligarchs only interested in their own profits. It's ruined Twitter already.

It won't effect you lot but I hope the EU regulates social media much more tightly especially with respect to election interference.

 

you only need to see musk is starting to get involved in uk politics

 

Out of interest, why is he?

He's sending rockets into space, electric cars driving over the world, a social media site, why does he give a **** about Nigel Farage and Tommy Robinson. The racially-driven gang rapes of children in the UK is horrific and the lack of adequate investigation and then the sentencing is scandalous, but there's thousands of scandals closer to home that he could focus on.
