The rules impose tougher requirements on companies around their internal cyber resilience strategy and internal practices. CNBC runs through all you need to know about NIS 2 — from what the law requires to the potential penalties businesses could face for violations. Under NIS 2, firms will also have to vet their digital supply chains for cyber threats and vulnerabilities. Companies that fail to comply with the new law could face massive potential fines, along with other punitive actions. Still, even with cyber security a much more prominent focus in board rooms, this hasn't stopped cyberattacks from taking place.

"A lot of these individuals had been deplatformed, so they wouldn't have had an opportunity to amplify," Van der Linden said. Musk has also claimed that the UK police's response "does seem onesided" — a viewpoint commonly promoted by far-right activists. Van der Linden said Musk might be being radicalized by his own platform. Musk's echo chamber on X is increasingly conspiratorial, Van der Linden added. Representatives for X did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Business Insider, made outside normal working hours.

It’s a text from your credit card company — someone is trying to purchase a $2,500 laptop using your account number. Be it finance, health care or politics, there is a global “infodemic” of misinformation that is affecting people’s health and well-being, according to the World Health Organization. “For most of the population who isn’t extreme in their attitudes, fact-checking and debunking reduces the degree to which people rely on falsehoods, but it doesn’t fully eliminate it,” van der Linden said. This approach works much like a vaccine, van der Linden said. “Instead of talking about immigration or abortion, talk about ‘Star Wars’ and ‘South Park’ as a starting point,” van der Linden said.

Elon Musk, already reeling after Tesla's earnings flop, could see X users ditch his platform. Israel-Hamas misinformation might be a "tipping point" for the social-media site, Paul Krugman says.

Elon Musk has demanded the EU provide a "list of violations" concerning disinformation on X. The international body told Musk to tackle the problem or face penalties. AdvertisementAdvertisementElon Musk has demanded to see a "list of violations" after the European Union told him to tackle disinformation about the Israel-Gaza conflict, which has been rapidly spreading on X. In a post on X, Musk replied to Breton's letter, saying: "Our policy is that everything is open source and transparent, an approach that I know the EU supports. The company's CEO, Linda Yaccarino, pulled out of two speaking arrangements, citing the developing conflict and a need to "remain fully focused on X platform safety."

The rampant spread is "a direct result of Musk's policies," a misinformation expert told Insider. "The fact that people with verified accounts can monetize their content means they have the wrong incentive," he said. "They're incentivized to spread content that's going to get engagement, clicks, and ultimately make them money. Even if you keep saying don't trust verified accounts, it's still difficult for people to navigate that landscape." Van der Linden said although misinformation was also present on Twitter before Musk's time, the platform used to have better resources to tackle it.

Ce rol ar avea vitamina D în tratarea COVID-19 a fost una dintre întrebările care încă subzistă la mai mult de un an de pandemie, scrie digi24.ro. Hidroxiclorochina, Ivermectina și vitamina D - toate sunt sau au fost studiate. Documentul a fost distribuit pe scară largă în mediul online, dar apoi a fost retras din cauza îngrijorărilor privind acuratețea cercetării. Potrivit medicului, deși deficiența de vitamina D a fost un factor de risc stabilit în rândul persoanelor care mor în terapie intensivă, suplimentarea cu vitamina D nu a reușit să reducă riscul dezvoltat de acești pacienți. Așa se răspândesc mesajele de tipul celor - „nu aveți nevoie de vaccin, puteți lua doar vitamina D”.
