Was Hines v Stamos Cheryl Hines suing John Stamos over the long-awaited Full House/Curb Your Enthusiasm crossover? Nope, it was an attempt to suppress academic research into the organized manipulation of online platforms. After three years we finally won. But at great cost.

Two years ago, my colleagues and I were sued by Stephen Miller's America First Legal. The Hines v Stamos case — built atop a number of false allegations — was a central element of the "censorship industrial complex" myth. Today, that case was dismissed (by a Trump judge in LA). We won.

This Wired article about Meta red-teaming the AI of others without their knowledge is mysterious but the subsequent BlueSky pearl clutching isn’t helpful. How do you think AI gets better? How will academics detect that AI isn’t safe? Through red teaming. www.wired.com/story/meta-c...

"It's just vibes-based regulation." Alex Stamos spoke to Justin Hendrix about the White House yanking Anthropic's Fable with no written standard, no warning, and no procedural path back. He compares it to grounding a jet without telling Boeing why. It's sending the wrong message abroad, he says.

Alex Stamos on Why the US Should Lift Its Fable and Mythos Export Ban

Stamos led an open letter calling on the Trump administration to reverse its export directive that forced Anthropic to remove access to its advanced models.

OFFS. When Iran tried to interefere in 2020, researchers caught them and called them out. Then the Benz-Weiss-Taibbi-Musk-Jordan-Trump axis labeled those researchers "censors" ... and set about defunding them and dismantling their organizations.

I am going to need every single person who said that misinformation was a moral panic to feel enough shame and regret that they leave public intellectual life.

A social media post from Donald J. Trump on Truth Social, posted 9 minutes ago. The text reads: "Iran tried to interfere in 2020, 2024 elections to stop Trump, and now faces renewed war with United States:" followed by a link to justthenews.com. Below is a link preview showing the article headline "Iran tried to interfere in 2020, 2024 elections to stop Trump, and now faces possible war with U.S." accompanied by a photo from what appears to be an Iranian protest or rally, showing demonstrators holding anti-Trump signs and posters with Persian text.

Another day, another phishing site protected by @cloudflare.social. This one is totally ripping through my kids’ school. Thanks CloudFlare, for the useless reply to my abuse report! Toxs[.]digital for the threat hunters

Watching the Katseye documentary with my daughter and my initial conclusions are: 1) Wow, these young ladies are talented and work hard 2) How has @agrobbonta.oag.ca.gov not opened an investigation into HYBE for child work conditions? There are two orthopedic surgeries documented ON CAMERA.

This was a fun mystery to explore with PJ. Have a listen if you are looking for a podcast not about… (gestures around at Rome burning).
