⚠️ Update: It's now 8:00 am in #Iran where the sun is rising after another night of protests met with repression; metrics show the nationwide internet blackout remains in place at 36 hours, severely limiting Iranians' ability to check on the safety of friends and loved ones 📵

Graph from NetBlocks showing network connectivity in Iran from January 5, 2025, to January 10, 2025. The y-axis represents normalized connectivity, ranging from 0% to 100%, and the x-axis represents the dates. The green line representing Iran's connectivity remains lower than normal most of the time period due to protests, with a sharp drop on the evening of January 8. The drop in connectivity aligns with protests across the nation. The minimum and current connectivity levels are indicated as 1% and 1%, respectively. The chart has a dark background with a red horizontal arrow labeled 'SHUTDOWN', indicates the period of disruption.

Over the past year I've been asked many times how I think AI will change digital repression. This excellent piece touches on many of my worries. IMO AI-generated sludge (or slop as they call it here) is a far greater concern than propaganda. reutersinstitute.politics.ox.ac.uk/news/ai-gene...

AI-generated slop is quietly conquering the internet. Is it a threat to journalism or a problem that will fix itself?

Three experts discuss the rise of low-quality content and its implications for the profession, the news industry and the public sphere.
