Outside #Bahraini embassy in LDN, we are asking why authorities gave instructions to @British_Airways to deny boarding to civil society actors alongside @MARYAMALKHAWAJA, a Bahraini citizen herself. No one at the embassy seems willing to speak or engage with us. #FreeAlKhawaja

For years this seemed beyond the remit of political possibility. If ever we needed to remember that relentless human rights investigating and campaigning can change political reality. Congrats to @Amnestytech @DonnchaC @botherder @ingleton @citizenlab @accessnow & so many others

A #TikTok ban in the #US would not address the harms of the surveillance-based business model shared by all the major social media companies. Invasive data collection fundamentally undermines our rights to privacy and freedom of thought.

Younger users of social media told us that they want safe, empowering and heathy online platforms. But their lived reality of these platforms can be far from it. We will be sharing their experiences across the coming weeks, starting with this thread: #UnsocialMedia

Today we're releasing new @mozilla research on YouTube. Together with @mccrosky – and with the help of 22,722 people who donated their data using Mozilla's research tool RegretsReporter – we explored how user controls affect video recommendations. foundation.mozilla.org/youtu… (1/9)

THREAD: The biggest story of my life is finally out.  Since 2019, I’ve been investigating a monitoring tool called Social Sentinel. They bill it as a way to help save students’ lives.  I found it had another purpose — surveilling campus protests. bit.ly/3xxFWM7

New @Mozilla research shows YouTube's tools enabling users to flag unwanted video recommendations "largely fail". Contrary to the promise of greater user control, people often continue to be shown similar violent or harmful videos. foundation.mozilla.org/en/bl…

Limits to platforms’ nudging to keep users engaged & their collection of personal data is overdue. Question is whether protections for children can pave the way for a wider overhaul for the benefit of all users, just when the federal effort to regulate data protection is stalling
Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a sweeping bill on Thursday aimed at protecting children online. It is the first state statute in the U.S. requiring online services likely to be used by minors to install wide-ranging safeguards for users under 18. nyti.ms/3Ue2dZ3

#Spyware is dangerous: ▶️ Control mechanisms failed to prevent its misuse even in 🇪🇺 ▶️ Victims of hacking are left alone ▶️ Governments are blocking scrutiny Until these problems are fixed, there's only one way to go: We need a #moratorium on the sale&use of spyware! #EPlenary

The Pegasus Project exposed the scale of human rights violations using cyber surveillance. One year on, not enough has changed. We need a global moratorium on the sale, transfer, and use of surveillance technology – says @amnesty ’s @ingleton theguardian.com/commentisfre…
