这是令人烦恼的一天。
关于社交媒体的对话继续在首都占据主导地位。”“对话”这个词太强了——它更像是一种持续不断地表达琐碎的不满。和往常一样，除了另一轮关于这些不满的头条新闻外，还不清楚这些不满会带来什么（如果有的话）。
从第一个抱怨开始：总统说他因为反保守的审查制度而失去了社交媒体的追随者：
“I think that Google and Facebook and Twitter, I think they treat c***ervatives and Republicans very unfairly. I could tell you that I have personal experience. I have a lot of people on the various platforms,” he said, citing a total following of 160 million accounts across different platforms. “That’s a lot of people. But I can tell you when things are different. And all of a sudden you lose people and you say, ‘Where did they go?’ They’ve taken off.”
在这种反保守审查的环境下，总统**了1.6亿人的追随者，但“你突然失去了人”。在推特的例子中，这一抱怨几乎肯定与今年夏天清除机器人和其他不良行为有关。目前还不清楚总统在“非常不公平地对待保守派和共和党人”的问题上是否对Facebook或谷歌提出了具体的批评，至少在这种情况下是这样，但谁知道接下来的几个小时会带来什么呢。
申诉2：总统在推特上发布了一段视频，暗示谷歌没有在其主页上链接到他向国会发表的第一次演讲，从而歧视了他。他加上了“停止偏见”的标签。谷歌解释说，从历史上看，它从未向国会宣传总统的第一次讲话，这不是官方国情咨文，而且总统的抱怨是毫无根据的。
第三大不满情绪发生在周二，但周三仍在take-o-sphere上回荡，那就是很多谷歌关于特朗普的新闻结果都包含了关于他实际所做事情的文章，这给他带来了负面影响。
我们甚至都在谈论这一切，这让人觉得有点不可思议。
许多人告诉总统要安静。
还有卡拉·斯威舍：“这是社交媒体时代最真实的难题：那些抱怨被沉默的人永远不会闭嘴。”
有Josh Rogin：“特朗普可能不喜欢他的大部分媒体报道是负面的，但不像席赫没有权力审查他的批评者。如果他想知道为什么谷歌在“特朗普新闻”上的搜索结果大多是负面的，他应该放下推特，拿起一面镜子。”
甚至还有PJ Media的主管编辑保拉·博尔亚德（Paula Bolyard），她写了一篇关于特朗普在谷歌新闻中的存在的故事，引发了第三号不满：“**无权因私人公司的政治观点而对其进行监管，在本案中这样做将开创一个危险的先例。**监管只会让事情变得更糟。互联网将变得不那么自由，更少的声音将被允许有发言权。”
总统最近能够收回追随者的一个方法是在推特上解除对他的批评，**命令他必须这样做。周三，他欢迎41个这样的账户重新加入。
不管怎样：当杰克·多尔西、谢丽尔·桑德伯格，或许还有谷歌的人，下周在国会的各个小组委员会前，所有这些都会令人难以置信地沉闷地播出。

独家：基于伊朗的政治影响力行动——更大、持久、全球
数据泄露总是比第一次报告的要大。而且，影响力运动似乎也是如此。杰克·斯塔布斯（Jack Stubbs）和克里斯托弗·宾（Christopher Bing）在20世纪80年代的一部《老友记》（buddy cop）电影中听起来像是不般配的搭档，他们上周发现了Facebook揭露的伊朗影响力行动的新触角：
Facebook and other companies said last week that multiple social media accounts and websites were part of an Iranian project to covertly influence public opinion in other countries. A Reuters ****ysis has identified 10 more sites and dozens of social media accounts across Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and YouTube.
U.S.-based cyber security firm FireEye Inc and Israeli firm ClearSky reviewed Reuters’ findings and said technical indicators showed the web of newly-identified sites and social media accounts - called the International Union of Virtual Media, or IUVM - was a piece of the same campaign, parts of which were taken down last week by Facebook Inc, Twitter Inc and Alphabet Inc.

特朗普改变了青少年对新闻的看法
泰勒·洛伦兹报道说，特朗普对媒体的攻击削弱了所有人口统计数据对媒体的信任，包括厌恶胡说八道的青少年
There is increasing evidence that this skeptici**, exacerbated by the president’s relentless attacks, is trickling down to the next generation of voters. A 2017 report on a series of focus groups with 52 people between the ages of 14 and 24, conducted by Data & Society and the Knight Foundation, found that many young Americans believe the news is biased and are skeptical of its accuracy. “There was no assumption that the news would convey the truth or would be worthy of their trust,” the study reported.

每一条交叉发布的推特是如何从Facebook上消失的
推特的一个极端举动是，推特在不考虑后果的情况下删除了其Facebook应用程序，因此人们在Facebook上交叉发布的所有推特都暂时消失了。不过，它们都重新出现了，所以我们都可以放松了。Ina Fried提供了详细信息：
Twitter had initially asked Facebook for more time to see if there was a way for users to continue joint posting to both social networks, but Facebook said no.
As a result, the Twitter app for the Facebook platform was essentially made useless earlier this month once Facebook officially removed the ability to cross-post. With the app’s sole function eliminated, Twitter decided to delete it from the Facebook platform, having no reason to think that doing so would remove old tweets that were cross-posted. It’s not clear whether Facebook knew this would happen, either.
Facebook删除了安妮·弗兰克中心的一篇显示大屠杀受害者的帖子
安妮·弗兰克中心（Anne Frank Center）的一篇帖子显示，瘦弱、**的大屠杀受害者与Facebook的**过滤器发生了冲突。在该中心公开投诉后，该职位被恢复。
我们应该如何调节面部识别？
脸谱网围绕人脸识别的行动经常引起争议，偶尔也会引发集体诉讼。我的同事拉塞尔·布兰多姆（Russell Brandom）与众多专家就如何监管它进行了会谈。这是乔治敦大学隐私与技术中心的阿尔瓦罗·贝多亚：
Beyond that, I’d like to see rules around bias and accuracy testing. You probably want protecti*** for children. It should probably not be used on people who are 18 or younger. You probably want prohibiti*** on sensitive areas like hospitals or clinics or schools, where even if someone’s c***ented, you still shouldn’t use it.
Look at surveillance cameras. You do not usually have surveillance cameras in bathrooms. You can have them all throughout the store, you’ll have them at the entrance, the exit, in the aisles, at the checkout. But you do not have them in the bathroom because we all understand that recording people in the bathroom is a bad idea.

在YouTube上成名之前先谋生
想成为YouTube明星的人在成名之前是如何赚钱的？答案是你从未听说过的小型应用程序，泰勒·洛伦兹报道：
Brenden and Tyler LaTarte know these deals well. The 17-year-old twins got started on Instagram, where they collectively have almost 50,000 followers. Several months ago, they started a YouTube channel. While they wait for it to take off, they’re relying on a live-streaming app called UpLive to make money and build a following. They receive $500 for 30 hours of streaming within a 15-day time period. They stream their lives, chat with fans, and fill the hours with whatever they think followers will find interesting.
“It’s always good as a creator to have supportive parents and friends, but it’s even better when you have supportive apps behind you,” said Mario Ayuso, their manager. “When an app sees your potential and what you’re bringing to the table they’ll partner with you to get you to the next goal. Maybe that’s financial, maybe it’s connecti***, or an audience.”

该公司证实，Twitter测试了个性化的“不关注”建议。
Twitter测试了一项突出显示用户很少与之互动的账户的功能，询问他们是否愿意取消该账户的关注，以便他们更喜欢使用Twitter。威尔·奥雷莫斯（Will Oremus）报告说，这是一个好主意，因此公司立即结束了测试。

“漫流主义”让欧洲忧心忡忡。技术在多大程度上帮助我们实现了这一目标？
Farhad Manjoo说社交媒体正在破坏旅行：
“You can’t talk about overtouri** without mentioning Instagram and Facebook — I think they’re big drivers of this trend,” Mr. Francis said. “Seventy-five years ago, touri** was about experience-seeking. Now it’s about using photography and social media to build a personal brand. In a sense, for a lot of people, the photos you take on a trip become more important than the experience.”
Facebook是如何将人际交流夷为平地的
大卫·奥尔巴赫（David Auerbach）批评Facebook的反应表情符号减少了结构化数据的交流，使其失去了细微差别：
The default six **ooth out the variati*** that were observed when Facebook was conducting tests with a far larger set of emoti***, all designed by Disney-Pixar’s Matt Jones. The full list included everything from admiration and affirmation to anger, rage, and terror. A simple classification won out. It is both easier to use and more universal — at the expense of cultural and personal variation. Also, to hear researcher Dacher Keltner tell it to Radiolab’s Andrew Zolli, at the expense of happiness:
Countries that expressed the most “happiness” were not actually the happiest in real life. Instead, it was the countries that used the widest array of stickers that did better on various measures of societal health, well-being — even longevity. “It’s not about being the happiest,” Keltner told me, “it’s about being the most emotionally diverse.”

被称为“佩多”的英国潜水员埃隆·马斯克威胁要以诽谤罪起诉他
本月早些时候，我提到了“永不推特名人堂”（Never Tweet Hall of Fame）的第一次投票，伊隆·马斯克（Elon Musk）在推特上发布了一系列臭名昭著的消息，暗示他将以420美元的价格将特斯拉私有化（“资金担保”）。但我们还没有谈论马斯克在推特上暗示他的批评者之一可能是恋童癖的时间。不管怎么说，看起来那个家伙正在起诉他。Ryan Mac报道：
A British man, who Elon Musk called a “pedo” on Twitter, has retained legal counsel and is “preparing a civil complaint for libel” against the Tesla CEO, according to a letter viewed by BuzzFeed News. The letter appears to contradict a claim Musk made on Twitter on Tuesday that he had yet to see any legal repercussi*** from his allegati***, and deepens the problems for the already embattled technology billionaire.
A lawyer for Vernon Unsworth, a UK citizen who was instrumental in the rescue of 12 children trapped in a cave in Thailand, sent Musk a letter earlier this month notifying him of a possible lawsuit, after the Tesla chief’s outburst against his client in July. Musk previously made the allegati*** against Unsworth without any evidence, before issuing an apology and deleting the offending tweets.
马斯克先生，一次进入从不发推特的名人堂可能被认为是一种不幸。两次进入看起来像是粗心大意。
