Beslutningen vil også udfordre Eu kommissionen og øvrige Europæiske beslutningstageres forsøg på at moderere digitale platforme og det bliver især spændende at se om DSA'en kan gøre noget for at sanktionere Meta.

Beslutningen kommer både til at gøre det nemmere for ondsindede aktører at bedrive påvirkningskampagner i Europa (hvor der vil være en række vigtige valg eks. i Tyskland) og have ret vidtgående konsekvenser for faktatjekker-branchen som er afhængig af Meta for både funding og adgang til platformen

Ser man på effekterne af Musk's nedlægning af X's moderationsteam, så har flere studier fundet et markant optik af misinfo og hatespeech og at community notes ofte er sløvere og mere upræcis et redskab end faktatjek.

While a fourth is on its way, I will leave you with this. As these three papers rely on different literatures and approaches to the study of Russian information warfare, I believe we need to see this challenge from multiple angles and not just one.

The third paper is an online field experiment, where I teamed up with VoxCheck to test if debunking or source exposure would lead to fringe audiences to stop consuming outlets spreading Russian disinformation.

The second paper has moved into “what to do about it” and focuses on the effect of the EU’s geoblock of Russian propaganda outlets and their reach among fringe audiences, i.e. people feeling disenfranchised and consuming a lot of misinformation. policyreview.info/articles/ana...

The first paper concerns how Sputnik relied on various adaptation strategies to tailor its reporting of Nord Stream 2 to Polish, German and English reading audiences. It focuses on how strategic narratives are forced to interact with its audiences world view. journals.sagepub.com/eprint/YE2CX...

In general my main focus has been on the functioning of Russian Propaganda among fringe audiences and what to do about it- mixing international relations, political communication and computational sociology.
