☆ Big Tech’s grip on social media is a growing problem

That concentration of digital ownership can create real-world harm, as a recent censorship dispute with Meta lays bare. We don’t know,” Kabas wrote in her recounting of the situation. Meta controls a whole bunch of the social media ecosystem, and that means there aren’t a lot of competitors to keep it honest. Meanwhile, all of media relies on it because content creators have to get in front of readers if they want to survive. We don’t know what happened within Meta to trigger an erroneous block of legitimate news sources last week.

☆ Meta is accused of censoring a non-profit newspaper and an independent journalist who criticized the company
  + stars: | 2024-04-05 | by ( Allison Morrow | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +2 min
The controversy began Thursday morning when users noticed that all links to the non-profit newspaper the Kansas Reflector had been flagged as a cybersecurity threat and their posts were removed. About seven hours later, the paper said, most of its links had been restored, save for one — a column that had criticized Facebook and accused it of suppressing posts related to climate change. That seemed suspicious to Marisa Kabas, an independent journalist in New York, who asked the Reflector for permission to publish the text of the column on her own website, the Handbasket. And for about two hours, she said, all of the links to her site were blocked. In a Threads post on Friday, Stone said the blocked links were “due to a security error” that also mistakenly blocked links to The Handbasket and the nonprofit news aggregator site News From The States.
