    Mozilla, Reddit, Wikimedia et d’autres demandent à la FCC de réinstaller la neutralité du Net
    ▻https://www.nextinpact.com/lebrief/46503/mozilla-reddit-wikimedia-et-dautres-demandent-a-fcc-reinstaller-neutrali

    Mise à mort fin 2017, la neutralité du Net a été officiellement enterrée mi-2018 au grand dam de nombreux acteurs. Le président de l’époque de la FCC – Ajit Pai – était un fervent défenseur de cette liquidation. Ce dernier a démissionné de ses fonctions dès l’arrivée de Joe Biden à la Maison-Blanche. C’est désormais Jessica Rosenworcel qui assure la présidence de la Commission fédérale des communications.

    Platforms like YouTube have tried to combat harassment against women. It’s not working
    ▻https://www.codastory.com/authoritarian-tech/misogyny-harassment-youtube-twitch

    Accusations of misogynistic comments and threats of rape are common on popular streaming and social media platforms like Youtube and Twitch where moderation policies don’t go far enough Last June the gaming industry had a moment of reckoning. Starting as a trickle, female and non-binary online gamers and streamers began posting stories of online and offline harassment by men, a problem they said was rife across the industry. Accusations of misogynistic comments, threats of rape, revenge (...)

    The GameStop Mess Shows That the Internet Is Rigged Too - The Atlantic
    ▻https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2021/02/gamestop-mess-shows-internet-rigged-too/618040

    https://cdn.theatlantic.com/thumbor/qF4VrvS56MR1g1yCdEuQ9TsmBkw=/0x0:1908x994/960x500/https://cdn.theatlantic.com/assets/media/img/mt/2021/02/Atlantic_rigged_v1/original.png

    par Zeynep Tufekci

    As of January 10, nine brokerages had set the one-year target stock price for GameStop at about $10.

    But that’s not where it would stay—at least for a while. It climbed in price because a subreddit, r/WallStreetBets, engineered a short squeeze.

    That kicked off a wild ride, revealing many things not just about how digital technologies are transforming our world, but also about how they are not. It was yet another stark demonstration that technology is not simply a tool—neutral on all possible outcomes, good or bad—but something more dynamic, messy and complicated. It’s a complex system where the workings of both the technology and our society, and crucially, how they interact with each other matter greatly.

    This is how the squeeze worked: A few large hedge funds had “shorted” GameStop. That means that they had borrowed the stock, with the intention of returning it when the share price moved lower, as they expected it would, leaving them with a profit. Obviously, this works only if the future price of the stock is indeed lower. If the share price rises, the hedge funds would have to buy the stock at the new, higher price, leading to losses. Investors on r/WallStreetBets had noticed that this particular short position was especially vulnerable because a large portion of its existing shares was tied up in the short betting. They explained to others in the forum that if the price went up and up, the hedge funds would eventually be forced to cover those short positions by purchasing the stock back at a much higher price—from them.

    They started buying. The stock started rising.

    The attempted squeeze and the ensuing rise in GameStop’s stock price was a media sensation.

    Self-organized groups have been using the web to act on the physical world for a while. The tech companies that enable this behavior are themselves old. Facebook turned 17 on February 4. Google is already 22, Reddit is 15, and Apple’s iPhone—which ushered in the era of smartphones—is 13. We’ve had many years to think smarter about what digital connectivity means. And yet, we still face this idea that the internet is a game, that the virtual world is something distinct from the real one. This condescension is even embedded in the phrase IRL—“in real life,” meaning not online.

    But the internet isn’t a game. It’s real. And it’s not just a neutral mirror that passively reflects society. One hears that notion from tech elites who’d like to deflect blame from their own creations, which have both empowered and enriched them. “It’s just a tool,” they say. This same mentality is what made Mark Zuckerberg say that it was a “pretty crazy idea” that Facebook had anything to do with Donald Trump’s election—a statement he had to walk back, in part, because it contradicted everything that Facebook usually claims: that its software matters; that it influences people; that it changes, rather than merely reflects, the world.

    Robinhood is particularly important to this saga because it was the platform of choice for r/WallStreetBets. It drove the retail (meaning small investors rather than big institutions) trade boom because individuals could buy and sell as much as they wanted without a fee. But as with social media, Robinhood’s users were about to find out that the intermediary platform’s business model mattered greatly.

    Unlike traditional brokerages, which charge a fee for buying and selling, Robinhood offers these seemingly free trades because it makes its money in large part by selling the trades to big buyers, many of them other hedge funds. It’s those players that will make the real money—and in turn pay Robinhood for the privilege.

    The restrictions came because, under its business model, Robinhood could not put up the kind of capital required for all of these trades in the clearinghouses where they are eventually settled, the company wrote in a blog post. So it wasn’t that Robinhood had an interest in kneecapping the short squeeze. Rather, it was never a suitable platform for engineering a squeeze of this scale—based on “free” trades by retail investors precisely because those investors were never its true customers.

    These dynamics play out across many digital platforms. Similar to how Robinhood makes money not from individual traders, who are its users, but from its hedge-fund customers, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Reddit, and the rest make money by selling our attention to advertisers or anyone looking to influence people. This business model also fuels surveillance because paid influence operations work better if they have more data to improve their targeting; data allow them to better find ways to “engage” us. And if there is one thing we know about a social species like humans, it is that in-group versus out-group dynamics (us versus them) are very engaging. Similarly, novelty and misinformation are often attractive, and the truth boring and unengaging. Thus, even though the engineers at these companies don’t set out to amplify tribalism and polarization, the algorithms they let loose on us inevitably do, as a corollary of their optimization target.

    On February 2, GameStop closed at $90, less than 20 percent of its all-time high, which it had reached just a few days earlier. Like many internet stories, the narrative may start with the “little guy” winning—David against Goliath—but they rarely end that way. The little guy loses, not because he is irrational and too emotional, but because of his relative power in society.

    Similarly, Facebook was first celebrated for empowering dissidents during the Arab Spring, but just a few years later it was a key tool in helping Donald Trump win the presidency—and then, later, in clipping his wings, when it joined with other major social-media companies to deplatform him following the insurrection at the Capitol. The reality is that Facebook and Twitter and YouTube are not for or against the little guy: They make money with a business model that requires optimizing for engagement through surveillance. That explains a lot more than the “for or against” narrative. As historian Melvin Kranzberg’s famous aphorism goes: “Technology is neither good nor bad; nor is it neutral.”

    The pattern is persistent, and it’s not even concealed. The higher echelons of the corporate world play together with the government and Wall Street to enrich themselves. For example, major US airlines have spent nearly all its extra cash on stock buybacks for the past decade, thereby inflating its stock price—and thus executive pay, which is often tied to stock price—and the stock market. And when the tough times came with the pandemic? The industry got a $25 billion bailout from the government, as one does. Boeing, too, spent most of its cash on stock buybacks, and its CEO was fired with a $62 million exit package not long after the Boeing 737 Max crisis—which resulted in two crashes and 346 dead. A 2013 report found that the average “golden parachute” for the top-paid CEO who was fired was $47.7 million. On it goes.

    The social contract is broken, and that’s why the game feels rigged. Right now, especially in countries like the United States, many of the largest, most profitable companies play the legal-tax-evasion game to the point that they are sitting on hundreds of billions of dollars in cash. (Apple alone has cash reserves that hover around $200 billion. Similarly, both Microsoft and Alphabet/Google have more than $100 billion in their cash pile.) These stockpiles are humongous and the companies are not productively investing them—by building something, or by paying people—so the money all goes back into the stock market. When there is such concentrated wealth, many assets—from stocks to Picasso paintings—appreciate. Such disproportionate investment in speculative or nonproductive assets, coupled with the lack of investment in things that make society work better for more people, like education and health care, further break the social contract.

    On February 7, during the Super Bowl, Reddit used the r/WallStreetBets incident for a feel-good ad. “Powerful things happen when people rally around something they really care about. And there’s a place for that. It’s called Reddit,” the ad flashed. It went on to celebrate the underdog: “One thing we learned from our communities last week is that underdogs can accomplish just about anything when we come together around a common idea.” It was all warm and fuzzy.

      [...] there is no turning back. The people who build transformative technologies can no longer credibly claim that their creations are “just tools,” any more than Supreme Court justices can claim that their opinions are “just words.” Governments that once embraced innovation as an unalloyed good — like India, which this week banned TikTok and dozens of other Chinese-owned apps to protect its “sovereignty and integrity” — now recognize, correctly, that letting someone else build your apps is tantamount to letting them shape your society. Users, too, are ready to live in a more responsible internet. They understand that there are drawbacks to lawlessness, and that scale is no excuse for negligence.

    Reddit, Acting Against Hate Speech, Bans ‘The_Donald’ Subreddit - The New York Times
    ▻https://www.nytimes.com/2020/06/29/technology/reddit-hate-speech.html

    https://static01.nyt.com/images/2020/06/29/business/29reddit/29reddit-facebookJumbo.jpg

    SAN FRANCISCO — Reddit, one of the largest social networking and message board websites, on Monday banned its biggest community devoted to President Trump as part of an overhaul of its hate speech policies.

    The community or “subreddit,” called “The_Donald,” is home to more than 790,000 users who post memes, viral videos and supportive messages about Mr. Trump. Reddit executives said the group, which has been highly influential in cultivating and stoking Mr. Trump’s online base, had consistently broken its rules by allowing people to target and harass others with hate speech.

    “Reddit is a place for community and belonging, not for attacking people,” Steve Huffman, the company’s chief executive, said in a call with reporters. “‘The_Donald’ has been in violation of that.”

    Reddit said it was also banning roughly 2,000 other communities from across the political spectrum, including one devoted to the leftist podcasting group “Chapo Trap House,” which has about 160,000 regular users. The vast majority of the forums that are being banned are inactive.

    “The_Donald,” which has been a digital foundation for Mr. Trump’s supporters, is by far the most active and prominent community that Reddit decided to act against. For years, many of the most viral Trump memes that broke through to Facebook, Twitter and elsewhere could be traced back to “The_Donald.” One video, “The Trump Effect,” originated on “The_Donald” in mid-2016 before bubbling up to Mr. Trump, who tweeted it to his 83 million followers.

    Social media sites are facing a reckoning over the types of content they host and their responsibilities to moderate and police that content. While Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Reddit and others originally positioned themselves as neutral sites that simply hosted people’s posts and videos, users are now pushing them to take steps against hateful, abusive and false speech on their platforms.

    Some of the sites have recently become more proactive in dealing with these issues. Twitter started adding labels last month to some of Mr. Trump’s tweets to refute their accuracy or call them out for glorifying violence. Snap also said it would stop promoting Mr. Trump’s Snapchat account after determining that his public comments off the site could incite violence.

    On Monday, the streaming website Twitch suspended Mr. Trump’s account for violating its policies against hateful conduct. Mr. Trump’s channel had rebroadcast one of his campaign rallies from 2015, in which he denigrated Mexicans and immigrants, among other streams. Twitch removed the videos from the president’s account.

    YouTube also said on Monday that it was barring six channels for violating its policies. They included those of two prominent white supremacists, David Duke and Richard Spencer, and American Renaissance, a white supremacist publication. Stefan Molyneux, a podcaster and internet commentator who had amassed a large audience on YouTube for his videos about philosophy and far-right politics, was also kicked off the site.

    Facebook , the world’s largest social network, has said it refuses to be an arbiter of content. The company said it would allow all speech from political leaders to remain on its platform, even if the posts were untruthful or problematic, because such content was newsworthy and in the public’s interest to read.

    Facebook has since come under increasing fire for its stance. Over the past few weeks, many large advertisers, including Coca-Cola, Verizon, Levi Strauss and Unilever, have said they plan to pause advertising on the social network because they were unhappy with its handling of hate speech and misinformation.

    Reddit, which was founded 15 years ago and has more than 430 million regular users, has long been one corner of the internet that was willing to host all kinds of communities. No subject — whether it was video games or makeup or power-washing driveways — was too small to discuss. People could simply sign up, browse the site anonymously and participate in any of the 130,000 active subreddits.

    Yet that freewheeling position led to many issues of toxic speech and objectionable content across the site, for which Reddit has consistently faced criticism. In the past, the company hosted forums that promoted racism against black people and openly sexualized underage children, all in the name of free speech.

    Mr. Huffman said users on “The_Donald” had frequently violated its first updated rule: “Remember the human.”

    Reddit executives said the site remained a place that they hoped could be a forum for civil political discourse in the future, as long as users played by its rules.

    “There’s a home on Reddit for conservatives, there’s a home on Reddit for liberals,” said Benjamin Lee, Reddit’s general counsel. “There’s a home on Reddit for Donald Trump.”

    Les règles de fonctionnement de reddit
    human_reddiquette - reddit.com
    ▻https://www.reddit.com/wiki/human_reddiquette

    Reddiquette is an informal expression of the values of many redditors, as written by redditors themselves. Please abide by it the best you can. This is a shortened version that mainly focuses on civil discourse.
    Please do
    Remember the human . When you communicate online, all you see is a computer screen. When talking to someone you might want to ask yourself “Would I say it to the person’s face?” or “Would I get jumped if I said this to a buddy?”
    Adhere to the same standards of behavior online that you follow in real life.
    Read the rules of a community before making a submission . These are usually found in the sidebar.
    Moderate/Vote based on quality, not opinion . Well written and interesting content can be worthwhile, even if you disagree with it.
    Consider posting constructive criticism / an explanation when you downvote something, and do so carefully and tactfully.
    Use an “Innocent until proven guilty” mentality. Unless there is obvious proof that a submission is fake, or is whoring karma, please don’t say it is. It ruins the experience for not only you, but the millions of people that browse reddit every day.
    Please do not
    Post someone’s personal information, or post links to personal information. This includes links to public Facebook pages and screenshots of Facebook pages with the names still legible. We all get outraged by the ignorant things people say and do online, but witch hunts and vigilantism hurt innocent people too often, and such posts or comments will be removed. Users posting personal info are subject to an immediate account deletion. If you see a user posting personal info, please contact the admins. Additionally, on pages such as Facebook, where personal information is often displayed, please mask the personal information and personal photographs using a blur function, erase function, or simply block it out with color. When personal information is relevant to the post (i.e. comment wars) please use color blocking for the personal information to indicate whose comment is whose.
    Do not repost deleted/removed information. Remember that comment someone just deleted because it had personal information in it or was a picture of gore? Resist the urge to repost it. It doesn’t matter what the content was. If it was deleted/removed, it should stay deleted/removed.
    Be intentionally rude at all. By choosing not to be rude, you increase the overall civility of the community and make it better for all of us.
    Conduct personal attacks on other commenters. Ad hominem and other distracting attacks do not add anything to the conversation.
    Start a flame war. Just report and “walk away”. If you really feel you have to confront them, leave a polite message with a quote or link to the rules, and no more.
    Insult others. Insults do not contribute to a rational discussion. Constructive Criticism, however, is appropriate and encouraged.
    Troll. Trolling Does not contribute to the conversation.

    Si vous êtes abonné-e à REDDIT, c’est le moment ou jamais de lever l’ancre en leur disant pourquoi:

    On 29th June, @reddit banned the radical feminist subreddit r/GenderCritical, Reddit’s most active feminist community, which had nearly 65,000 subscribers and more than 27,000 daily users, as part of their campaign to rebrand themselves as being against “hate."

      Les GAFA garants de la liberté d’expression ? On a un peu documenté le sujet ici : ne pas mettre ses outils de com dans le même panier corporate.

      Cette atteinte à la liberté d’expression est bien sûr déplorable. Mais « lobby trans » et « lobby transgenriste » sont l’expression haineuse d’une idéologie féministe tout à fait légitime.

      PS : Dire plus fort « lobby » ne sert à rien, il faut cartographier les réseaux qui s’activent pour l’autodéfinition du genre ou les transitions précoces, nous montrer son activité et pas seulement tabler sur une hostilité malsain qui suffira à convaincre que lobby il y a... J’attends encore de voir des pièces, et avec beaucoup d’intérêt.

      Je n’ai pas mis de caractères gras. Tu écris « ce mouvement-là, dont on sait peu de choses mais qui visiblement marche bien », j’utilise le mot juste pour décrire de tels mouvements de défense d’intérêts particuliers contre ceux d’autres parties. Aucune « haine » en cause.
      Pour ce qui est de « pièces », j’espère moi aussi un travail spécifique de repérage en France. Ailleurs et notamment à l’échelon de l’Europe, on peut lire ►https://tradfem.wordpress.com/2018/11/19/sheila-jeffreys-les-principes-de-jogjakarta-une-menace-internatio

    Haine en ligne : le boycottage d’annonceurs oblige Facebook à fléchir
    ▻https://www.lemonde.fr/economie/article/2020/06/29/haine-en-ligne-le-boycottage-d-annonceurs-oblige-facebook-a-flechir_6044532_

    Des entreprises telles les multinationales Unilever, Verizon ou Coca-Cola estiment que la plate-forme n’en fait pas assez contre les discours haineux.

    Il est rare qu’une entreprise prévienne les journalistes moins de vingt minutes avant une prise de parole publique de son PDG. Les annonces de Mark Zuckerberg, vendredi 26 juin, à 20 heures, en direct sur sa page Facebook, montrent l’urgence de la situation et la fébrilité du réseau social. Le fondateur de la firme tentait de contrer l’essor d’un boycottage parmi de grands annonceurs comme Unilever ou Verizon. Ces multinationales ont mis « en pause » leurs dépenses publicitaires sur Facebook au moins jusqu’à fin juillet, estimant que la plate-forme n’en fait pas assez contre les discours de haine, en plein mouvement Black Lives Matter de défense des droits des Noirs.

    Vendredi, M. Zuckerberg a été contraint d’annoncer une mesure qu’il refusait de prendre depuis plusieurs semaines : Facebook va ajouter un avertissement sur les messages de personnalités politiques dont le contenu pose problème, tout en les laissant en ligne, car ils ont une valeur informative. Soit exactement ce que Twitter a fait fin mai avec deux Tweet de Donald Trump jugés trompeurs ou haineux.

    Cette décision avait déclenché la fureur du président américain. Et une campagne contre la politique de M. Zuckerberg, accusé de laisser faire un chef d’Etat haineux. En effet, Facebook s’était démarqué de Twitter, au nom de la liberté d’expression et par refus de se placer en « arbitre de la vérité » des propos de la sphère politique.

    Pression
    Mais, depuis, des associations américaines de lutte contre le racisme – dont les National Association for the Advancement of Colored People et Anti-Defamation League – ont lancé une campagne visant les annonceurs et les appelant au boycottage. Ont suivi, à parti du 19 juin, des entreprises de taille moyenne, connues pour leur communication sur l’éthique : The North Face, Patagonia, Ben & Jerry’s… Le réseau social a tenté de rassurer, sans toutefois infléchir sa politique. Mais la pression a monté de plusieurs crans, quand l’opérateur de télécoms Verizon a sauté le pas, jeudi 25 juin, avant d’être rejoint par les multinationales Unilever, Levi’s ou Honda, faisant plonger l’action Facebook en Bourse.

    Les concessions de M. Zuckerberg arrêteront-elles la fronde des annonceurs ? Les boycottages de marques sont souvent passagers, comme celui décrété contre la plate-forme de vidéo YouTube, en 2017, pour sa politique de modération jugée trop laxiste. Mais Coca-Cola et Starbucks ont annoncé leur retrait de Facebook après la prise de parole de M. Zuckerberg. Et le contexte politique de l’élection présidentielle américaine de novembre, très instable, va susciter une attention très forte sur les réseaux sociaux.

      Les pressions ne vont pas que dans le sens de l’antiracisme, hélas. Sous pression des masculinistes, la plateforme REDDIT vient de débrancher, sous prétexte de « propos haineux », le subreddit GenderCritical qui rassemblait 62 000 féministes, échangeant plus de 27 000 messages par jour. #censure #antiféminisme #REDDIT #critique du genre

    #Lluís_Rabell : Il n’appartient pas aux hommes…
    ▻https://tradfem.wordpress.com/2020/02/21/il-nappartient-pas-aux-hommes

    https://tradfem.files.wordpress.com/2020/02/ill-hombres-terf.jpg
    Il n’appartient pas aux hommes, aussi féministes et solidaires soient-ils, de donner leur avis sur la manière dont les femmes doivent gérer leurs mouvements ou mener leurs débats. Et pas seulement à cause de notre tendance traditionnelle à coloniser ces espaces, en exerçant sur eux un paternalisme de « protectorat ». Pas seulement pour cette raison. Il y a aussi une raison plus actuelle et plus inquiétante : il semble que nous assistons à toute une offensive culturelle et politique visant à forcer l’accès à des parcelles de vie privée durement gagnées et même à embrouiller les femmes elles-mêmes en tant que sujets d’une lutte d’émancipation. Une partie de la gauche est soit perméable à cette offensive soit aspirée dans celle-ci. Une autre partie reste perplexe et pleine de doutes. On sent cependant que la dispute pour décider du visage du féminisme du XXIe siècle condense les grands problèmes dont notre société débat.

    Il n’a pas non plus été nécessaire d’établir ce diagnostic. Elle a été réalisée par des voix très importantes du féminisme radical. Ce que nous pouvons peut-être apporter, ce sont des informations utiles « de l’autre côté ». Ou, en d’autres termes, la façon dont des hommes perçoivent les débats actuels. Et nous devons commencer par nous rappeler une chose qui peut sembler évidente, mais qui est de la plus haute importance : les hommes féministes sont ceux qui ont été convaincus par la critique et la lutte des femmes féministes. Quelque chose que nous n’avons jamais rendu facile pour elles. Pas même dans les rangs des organisations révolutionnaires ou du mouvement ouvrier lui-même.

    Sur Reddit, la haine des femmes se radicalise
    ▻https://korii.slate.fr/et-caetera/reddit-haine-femmes-radicalise-violence-incels-mgtow

    En quantifiant la haine, une étude confirme le durcissement des discours misogynes sur les subreddits antiféministes. On connaît bien la fachosphère, mais moins la « manosphère », bien que les deux aient partie liée. Ce terme désigne la communauté virtuelle des masculinistes, c’est-à-dire des militants antiféministes revendiquant ouvertement leurs haine des femmes et présents notamment sur Reddit. Plusieurs chapelles plus ou moins radicales coexistent, des MGTOW (Men Going Their Own Way, Les hommes en (...)
