In 2003, Dr. Gladys Kalema-Zikusoka founded her nonprofit, Conservation Through Public Health. The group has since engaged more than 50,000 local people in health and economic initiatives – and Uganda’s mountain gorilla population has grown by more than 50 percent. https://cnn.it/4pNnt8h

Meta is downranking, restricting and censoring feminist, women's health and pro-democracy accounts. This is a clear breach of the DSA. I already addressed a formal written question in May. I ask the European Commission to urgently take steps to fine Meta for the lack of a complaint-handling system.

A really important read for anyone who wants to understand recent attacks on climate attribution science (and who is behind it—the fossil fuel industry). share.google/cMbSLfBflTtC...

Inside the campaign to discredit a key climate science report

An emerging field of research that can measure how much climate change has worsened individual disasters is under attack by friends of the fossil fuel industry. Billions of dollars are at stake.

New from 404 Media: companies are using Reddit manipulate ChatGPT and Google AI Search. The strategy is to systematically manipulate answers provided by chatbots by manipulating the underlying source material those chatbots scrape—in this case, a popular subreddit www.404media.co/companies-ar...

“As AI search engines increasingly pull answers from Reddit, companies are using us for AEO. On top of that, there's been an explosion of peptide interest and AI usage flooding the sub. Together, this has put serious pressure on content quality,” a post by the moderators read. AEO is AI-engine optimization, and it is an evolution of search engine optimization where brands and marketing companies attempt to create content that they hope will be scraped by large language models. Manipulating Reddit with bots, sock puppet accounts, and human accounts that are paid to promote brands has become a core strategy of firms that do AEO, because Reddit has become one of most-often cited sources by popular AI tools like ChatGPT and Google’s AI search. For example, a company called RedRover offers AEO and SEO for companies; on its home page, it says “rank #1 on Search and get cited by AI: AI agents that mass publish content to help you rank on Google, ChatGPT, and Reddit—driving traffic to your site from every corner of the internet.” “An army of agents publishing blog content & reddit posts that solves both SEO & AEO at scale,” RedRover advertises.
