Huge win from @franzanth.bsky.social creating a Content Scraper Blocklist: bsky.app/profile/cont...

It's a blocklist for the kinds of engagement bait accounts that repost stolen content, often with misleading captions.

There is no lobby *for* science and accuracy outside a few, very un-powerful, scientific societies.

Organised lobbying is so important for shaping public opinion.

That being said, trus lt in scientists, in Europe at least, is steal really high compared to other groups. Engaging does matter.

Scientists continue to be WAY less organized than anti-science forces and continue to act like that doesn’t matter.

The Federal Communications Commission announced on Thursday a ruling that makes robocalls using artificial intelligence-generated voices illegal, just weeks after New Hampshire voters received calls from an apparently digitally generated voice impersonating President Biden.

Can't shake how alarming this is. Not the attack, which is bad enough. Fox's gleeful airing of it. That no one at Fox seem to realize out how fucked up it is. The idea that people fleeing desperate circumstances (and Venezuela, of all places) deserve violence. It's just so goddamned bleak.

It would not be surprising to see a quick 9-0 or 8-1 ruling reversing Colorado and keeping Trump on the ballot, with Roberts writing on the federal interest, and perhaps some concurrences (Kavanaugh on Griffin, Alito and Gorsuch on "holdin" office). Sotomayor is the question mark.

This is truly a must watch (well, most of Rossman's videos IMHO are must watch anyway):
