• How to trace twitter bots

  A good starting point is to use large-scale network analysis on the bots to establish to what extent they are connected (e.g by mentions, retweets or follows) and then see if there are any outliers in the resulting network that look more organic (applying something like the Botometer API).

• Help, I've gotten hooked on social media by trying to counter misinformation

  If in doubt about a user, ask them directly if they are being paid for their time online. Often the response is cagey, insulting, or redirecting, which should tell you everything you need to know. If they deny that they're being paid, check their post history to see how many hours a day they are posting, and which hours each day they are posting-- normal people do not have eight hours a day to post.

  You can start here. Musk running Twitter bots - for a long time at that - is pretty much common knowledge. Like this is how he became so insanely rich and why Tesla is so insanely overvalued by historical market KPIs. Source: about 2 years ago

• Slack AI Training with Customer Data

  This feel like a corporate greed play, on what should be a relatively simple chat application.

Nextcloud... - Source: Hacker News / 21 days ago
