The investigation I've been waiting for (including a nice visualisation):
A breakdown of all complaints filed against bloggers and musicians by Ekaterina Mizulina (Safe Internet League) - from formal complaints to social media posts - and what happened next.
🙄For just a few seconds I forgot that Mastodon doesn't want us to be social on social media. Then, someone I now previously followed, mentioned they're gonna do their best not to add to the "reply guy" problem.
"These fucking heathens wanna have conversations with other humans!!! Who the FUCK do they think they are?!?!?"🤣🤣🙄🙄🙄
@BeAware Mastodon is like knocking on your door. If you feel like answer. That is true sociale. While the other #platforms break your door, put new furniture etv in, eat your food and force an opinion. Think about that. Live without #algoritme
Very grateful to receive the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW) Early Career Award for my research on the visible and invisible mechanisms of information control in authoritarian states
Such awards tend to reinforce the idea of 'individual excellence' in academic research and push collaboration to the background. I'm immensely grateful to my co-authors, collaborators and network.
The best research emerges when we think together #TeamScience
