I get that, but this is technically true. See here in the piece. But yes, as I report in the story the way it is done can be harassment etc for sure.

I hear you! But from a legal perspective in the UK this is true, see the explanation in the piece here.

Video taken by my friend at #PalestineAction protest in LDN today. This person wasn’t holding a Palestine Action sign etc, just talking about how there are murderers + rapists yet this is the police’s focus. He also made a joke about Epstein. Met police: why was he arrested?

Helllo! Some of you may know me for my work reporting (mainly) on human rights and gender in East Africa. I am back here for a little bit, so hmu if you are around and want to catch up/talk to me about any interesting stories that need telling 👀

A colleague from Ireland sent this earlier – the same 'hidden results' msg on Insta for their #prochoice search, while #prolife working fine...

Meta told @peoplevsbigtech.bsky.social “We’re aware of an error affecting hashtags across the political spectrum and we are working quickly to resolve it.”

JD Vance’s VP page was also only created just over a week ago, a day after Trump’s, under the name Eagle1600 4. It now has 5.1m followers.

It may be that the Facebook POTUS account just automatically transferred followers as a White House account. But according to the page transparency it was only created on the 12th January under the name Eagle1600 2. And it now has 11 million followers…

There are claims going round that Facebook user accounts are now automatically following Trump and Vance, and #Democrat & #DNC is being blocked on Instagram. I’m getting the latter - while #republican and #gop working fine. Anyone else?

Now the UK has announced a blanket ban on #pubertyblockers, let's re-share this piece on the report its based on from earlier this year.

I know it's an opinion piece, but I also know Scientific American will have rigorously fact-checked its claims. www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-...
