Uttar Pradesh Though the man did not mention Covid, the police accused him of circulating a rumour with the intent to cause fear or alarm during the pandemic. Uttar Pradesh CM Adityanath The police in Amethi, Uttar Pradesh, have filed a criminal case against a man who used Twitter to appeal for an oxygen cylinder for his grandfather, The Wire reported on Wednesday. Shashank Yadav had not mentioned if his grandfather had the coronavirus. However, the police filed an FIR against him for allegedly circulating a rumour with the intent to cause fear or alarm.The police claimed that the man was “spreading misleading information”, according to The Indian Express. Sub-inspector Virendra Singh of the Ramganj police station claimed that Yadav provided false information on oxygen supply and the coronavirus to target the Uttar Pradesh government. “It was found during the inquiry that because of the accused’s false tweet, several persons made allegations against the government,” Singh told the newspaper.Yadav had initially sent an SOS using Twitter on Monday evening and tagged actor Sonu Sood. His friend Ankit amplified the message and sought help from The Wire journalist Arfa Khanum Sherwani. A few hours later, she, in turn, posted a tweet…

Floyd Mayweather and Logan Paul is on ... again. In December, Mayweather announced on Instagram that the two would fight a February 20th exhibition bout. The fight was subsequently postponed, but now appears to be back on. The two are scheduled to fight on June 6th at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, per Joe Pompliano. UPDATE: Mayweather Promotions has confirmed the fight, per Chris Mannix. Mayweather is 50-0 in his career and has 27 knockouts. At his peak, he was the pound-for-pound champ and the biggest moneymaker in the fight game. Paul has fought twice, losing one exhibition and then the subsequent pro rematch to British YouTuber KSI. I’m sure it will go swimmingly for Logan Paul. Paul’s brother Jake is the one to take only slightly more seriously in boxing. He has won three pro fights, although the opponents have included a YouTube personality, retired basketball player Nate Robinson, and an MMA fighter more known for his wrestling skills. But, he has impressed in his three wins, so maybe he can offer a tip or two to his brother to prevent him from an ugly defeat. Unlikely, but you never know I suppose.

QAnon supports reportedly found a new place to go.  Getty Images Twitch, Amazon's video game streaming platform, has had its share of streamers who created content too sexualized or too toxic for the company's terms and services. But now there appears to be a new batch of creators thriving on the platform after being banned from other social media networks for sharing QAnon and COVID-denying conspiracy theories.More than 20 channels streaming far-right ideas and conspiracy theories are on Twitch, according to a report from The New York Times Tuesday. Some of the streamers are faithful to former President Donald Trump and are spreading the false narrative that he won the 2020 presidential election. Others include QAnon supporters who spread the misinformation that the Democratic party and Hollywood elite are part of a cabal of pedophile Satan worshippers, the report said. Stay in the know Get the latest tech stories with CNET Daily News every weekday. Some of these channels make money from streaming to Twitch through donations from viewers or subscriptions, according to the NYT. Twitch says it will take "swift action" against users who violate any of its community policies, which recently changed to include behavior away from the platform.…

Executives from Facebook Inc., Twitter Inc. and Alphabet Inc.’s YouTube were pressed by lawmakers Tuesday on how user content is shared and highlighted on their platforms through algorithms that one senator said can be misused, “driving us into poisonous echo chambers.”Sen. Ben Sasse, the top Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee’s panel on Privacy, Technology and the Law, made the comment as members examined algorithms — the lines of software code that determine how user-generated information is displayed and who gets to see it.“Algorithms, like almost any technologies that are new, have costs and benefits” and can be abused, said Sasse, who is from Nebraska.The hearing took place as Congress is considering how to overhaul Section 230, a provision of the 1996 communications law that protects internet companies from liability for user content. One House proposal would make social media platforms responsible for the way content is shared and amplified through algorithms. “I plan to use this hearing as an opportunity to learn about how these companies’ algorithms work, what steps may have been taken to reduce algorithmic amplification that is harmful and what can be done better,” said Delaware Sen. Chris Coons, a Democrat and the subcommittee’s chairman, as…

First it was blogs, then came the podcasts. Where we once used blackberry messenger, WhatsApp voice notes are now commonplace. Before we asked Alexa or Siri, it was Jeeves.The internet is there to make things easier, and for those of us that are able, what can be simpler than voicing our thoughts? The trouble is, as the Turkish sociologist and tech seer Zeynep Tufekci explained so eloquently, returning to an oral culture “is not suited to certain kinds of knowledge accumulation and legibility of the world”.Our institutions, which rely so heavily on the written and print culture, “will not hold without adjustment”, she warned. One new app in particular is helping to prove her point. A friend invited me to join the iPhone-only  » Read More

On PoliticsBarred from Twitter and Facebook as Trump was, social media’s younger conspiracy theorists are moving to Twitch.Credit...Antonio de Luca/The New York TimesApril 27, 2021, 6:19 p.m. ETWhat’s the biggest political surprise of 2021? Not the Democrats’ upset wins in Georgia, flipping the Senate in their favor. Not President Biden’s leftward swerve.How about the fact that, after he was kicked off Twitter and Facebook, former President Donald Trump pretty much just … went away. He didn’t start his own social media company, as some close observers thought he might, and he didn’t mount a major public battle to get his accounts reinstated. He just quietly retreated (for now) to Mar-a-Lago.Be honest: Did you ever think that would happen?Still, the behavior of one man — no matter how famous, no matter how formidable a troll — does not determine the behavior of others. And as Twitter, Facebook and other platforms have cracked down on misinformation, the internet’s younger and spryer purveyors of far-right conspiracy theories have moved elsewhere.One platform that has particularly attracted them is Twitch, an Amazon-owned livestreaming video site that our tech reporter Kellen Browning describes in a recent article as “a new mainstream base of operations for many…

PITTSBURGH - A former resident of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, has been sentenced in federal court to 120 months’ imprisonment and lifetime supervised release on his conviction of possession of material depicting the sexual exploitation of a minor, Acting United States Attorney Stephen R. Kaufman announced today. United States District Judge Cathy Bisson imposed the sentence on Krent Jeffrey Haight, age 48, formerly of the City’s Mount Washington neighborhood. According to information presented to the court, Haight, on November 14, 2018, unlawfully possessed approximately 1500 still images and videos in computer graphics files depicting the sexual exploitation of minors, some of whom were under the age of 12 years. The images and videos were found on electronic devices seized by federal agents during the execution of a search warrant at Haight’s residence. During the search, Haight admitted to the agents that he uploaded numerous sexually exploitive images to Tumblr, a social networking website, making them available for public viewing. Haight had two prior convictions for sex offenses, the most recent of which involved the possession of child pornography. He was a registered sex offender in the State of Pennsylvania. Prior to imposing sentence, Judge Bissoon stated that she believed a 10-year term…
