虚假信息

The first-of-its-kind investigation will examine whether Twitter handles Israeli and Palestinian content as promised.

Twitter, long criticized for the proliferation of misinformation and illegal content, is now facing a formal investigation by an EU government for the first time over its handling of war-related posts between Israel and Hamas.
Prior to this, Twitter responded to the EU's newly enacted Digital Services Act (DSA), submitting a content moderation report it prepared in September, a transparency report in November, and formally responding to requests for information about illegal content. According to Reuters, Hamas carried out attacks on Israel during this period. Notably, Twitter is the only major social platform to be sanctioned under the bill so far.

A new form of manipulation is spreading across the globe, with the anonymity and convenience of cryptocurrency being used to fund electoral disinformation campaigns.
As major infrastructure providers begin to accept this digital currency, the spread of misinformation has received an unprecedented boost, posing a direct threat to electoral integrity and the democratic process.
Exposing the spread of false information and "donations" about cryptocurrency
A new report from blockchain analysis firm Chainalysis reveals the key role that cryptocurrencies play in funding election disinformation campaigns. This finding is not only shocking, but also has far-reaching implications for how people access and evaluate online election information.

Latest reports indicate a significant increase in fraudulent activity in the cryptocurrency space, including the use of fictitious team members and fake websites, as well as posting misleading information about fundraising events and collaborations with high-profile industry figures.

As the cryptocurrency market recovers, more retail and institutional investors are attracted to the space, putting them at an all-time high risk of becoming victims of scams.
Fraud in the cryptocurrency space and its impact
A recent Bloomberg report exposed some worrying fraud in the cryptocurrency industry. Jakob-Moritz Eberl, a social scientist at the University of Vienna who has no connection to the cryptocurrency industry, was surprised to find his profile picture on the websites of two crypto startups called InfinityStakeChain and FlexyStakes, falsely labeled as a team member.
