  • Users shocked to find Instagram limits political content by default (ArsTechnica)
  • Oversight Board Publishes Policy Advisory Opinion on Referring to Designated Dangerous Individuals as “Shaheed” (Oversight Board)
  • It’s not a glitch: how Meta systematically censors Palestinian voices (Access Now)

The episode is brought to you with financial support from the Future of Online Trust & Safety Fund. We weren’t able to schedule our usual Bonus Chat at the end of the episode so Mike and Ben talk about their thinking on podcast sponsorship, why advertising content doesn’t have to be all bad and how you get in touch if you’re a company or organization looking to reach Ctrl-Alt-Speech’s growing and global audience.
