A local gifting group helped me save hundreds on a new wardrobe as we head into summer. Alexandra Frost Sometimes, being a parent means not treating yourself to a new wardrobe when the seasons change so you can ensure all the kids have new pool slides and shorts to replace the ones they grew out of last year. But as a mom of five, I've found creative ways to still get new-to-me things when our budget is tight, such as participating in our community's local "Buy Nothing" groups on Facebook. They're part of the global Buy Nothing Project, where people give away things they no longer want for free.

Taipei, June 20 (CNA) A cybersecurity expert has warned of a coordinated Facebook disinformation campaign, suspected to be a Chinese psychological warfare test run designed to build networks for manipulating information and influencing Taiwan's November local elections.

At one point, 14 pages simultaneously carried the same post, while 34 of the total 383 posts appeared within five minutes, averaging one every 10 seconds, the expert said. He added that the regularity of the pattern suggested scheduled operations by a single backend system using a fixed list of accounts, rather than posts generated by human users. Examining those Facebook fan pages, the expert found that the administrators of 154 were based overseas -- in Hong Kong,  » Read More

Israel’s government asked Meta to censor social media content about its ongoing war against Iran, according to internal documents viewed by The Intercept. Company records show that Israel petitioned Meta to take down Facebook and Instagram posts expressing support for Iran, opposition to Israel, and even depictions of Iranian missile impacts. The government flagged a variety of materials related to the war, including posts mourning the death of Ayatollah Khamenei following his assassination by the U.S. and Israel on the opening day of the conflict, content supportive of Iran’s retaliatory attacks, and Iranian accounts that shared military analysis and propaganda sympathetic to the Iranian regime’s perspective. “Governments wanting to suppress speech that is critical of their war efforts is as old as time.” In some cases, Meta complied with the censorship requests, the records show, though it is unclear on what grounds.

When asked how many Iran-related takedown requests had been granted to date since the war began,  » Read More
