They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.
Wired is dropping paywalls for FOIA-based reporting. Others should follow
As the administration does its best to hide public records from the public, Wired magazine is stepping up to help stem the secrecy

Good pointer abt Meta and X's crowdsourced facts checking. However, ads are still not taken into 'false content' account.
Great comments from my @qutdmrc.bsky.social colleague @timothyjgraham.bsky.social on the substantial limitations and flaws of the ‘community notes’ model that #Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg is wearing as a fig leaf while he’s cozying up to the Trumpist ‘alternative facts’ mob.

Meta opts to leave fact-checking to unpaid users. What could go wrong?
Social media giant Meta has announced an Elon Musk-inspired solution to replace its independent fact-checking model on its platforms. Community Notes has been praised by its creator, but how effective is at curbing misinformation?
