Das Thema Datenschutz beschäftigt uns zwar, aber wir reden beim Thema Datenschutz nur von unseren eigenen Daten und schützen selten die unserer Kinder.
"Geheime Unterhaltungen" müssen für jede Konversation separat ausgewählt werden. Sie lassen sich mit einem Timer versehen und unterstützen Text und Bilder, aber weder GIFs noch Video. Zudem sind sie nur auf dem Endgerät einsehbar, auf dem der Austausch gestartet wurde.
Facebook and Microsoft are today introducing Open Neural Network Exchange (ONNX) format, a standard for representing deep learning models that enables models to be transferred between frameworks. ONNX is the first step toward an open ecosystem where AI developers can easily move between state-of-the-art tools and choose the combination that is best for them. When…

"The court continued that although there may have been difficulty in the past identifying the most important places for the exchange of views, today the answer is “clear”—it is “cyberspace,” the “vast democratic forums of the Internet” in general and “social media in particular.”
By Zeynep Tufekci, part of MIT Technology Review's September/October 2018 Issue. "To understand how digital technologies went from instruments for spreading democracy to weapons for attacking it, you have to look beyond the technologies themselves." and perhaps also to look beyond the USA...
"Dissidents can more easily circumvent censorship, but the public sphere they can now reach is often too noisy and confusing for them to have an impact. Those hoping to make positive social change have to convince people both that something in the world needs changing and there is a constructive, reasonable way to change it. Authoritarians and extremists, on the other hand, often merely have to muddy the waters and weaken trust in general so that everyone is too fractured and paralyzed to act. The old gatekeepers blocked some truth and dissent, but they blocked many forms of misinformation too."
"Perhaps the simplest statement of the problem, though, is encapsulated in Facebook’s original mission statement (which the social network changed in 2017, after a backlash against its role in spreading misinformation). It was to make the world “more open and connected.” It turns out that this isn’t necessarily an unalloyed good. Open to what, and connected how? The need to ask those questions is perhaps the biggest lesson of all."
As Facebook and Twitter are purging alternative media outlets, a neoconservative operative at a US government-funded think tank says more censorship is on its way. Max Blumenthal and Jeb Sprague discuss how scaremongering over Russia and China is being exploited to silence dissent on social media
Der Journalist und Datenschützer Matthias Eberl hat 130 deutsche Nachrichtenseiten und Verlagsangebote analysiert. Sein Fazit: Facebook liest fast überall mit. Durch Tracking-Tools kann der Konzern in vielen Fällen erkennen, welche Artikel ein Facebook-Nutzer anklickt. Die Gesetze untersagen diese Form von Tracking, aber die Verlage stört das nicht.
Frances Coppola, Forbes 30 June 2019: From a financial perspective, Libra seems fairly harmless. Even if all 2bn of Facebook’s users adopted Libra for some transactions, and all 90m of its small businesses used Libra for purchases and sales, it is not going to pose a major threat to the financial system, let alone replace sovereign currencies. But Libra is in reality a vehicle for bringing about Facebook’s wider aim of becoming the standard setter for digital identity. And that is a much, much bigger issue. Facebook is the last organization on earth that should have anything to do with digital identity or standards setting. For that reason, Libra must be stopped.
Die Plattform Facebook glaubt an eine bessere Diskussionskultur, wenn sie nur Nutzer mit Klarnamen zulässt. Politiker plädieren sogar für eine Klarnamenpflicht in allen sozialen Netzwerken. Matthias Schwarzer hält beides für Blödsinn: Der Klarname hindere kaum jemanden an Hassbotschaften – im Gegenteil.
