#Bluesky Says #Kremlin Is Hacking Its Platform to Spread #Propaganda

The company said it was fighting Russian efforts to hijack real #users’ accounts to post fake #content, an apparently novel tactic.

@ikuturso in exploring the relationship between #WSocial, #Bluesky and the AT protocol it's perhaps worth noting that Trumps Nazi Bar/megaphone Truth Social is actually based on a modified Mastodon platform.
I don't think they go to any length to acknowledge that either.

Très intéressant article de Elena Rossini, à propos de W, dont vous avez peut être entendu parler lors du dernier forum de Davos.

Tout s'éclaire. Bravo et merci Elena.

Do you remember the surprise announcement of a new social network in Davos this past January? Something that promised to be the "first" European social network?

Its name is #WSocial and it's a fork of #Bluesky. Its founders have ties with European politicians - but there is no official involvement by the EU.

You wouldn't know any of this from media reports because they all rehashed their talking points. So I wrote a post about it, dispelling some myths:

Is the Bluesky kind of federation an example for the future of the Fediverse?

Read here what I think about this:

This, in a nutshell, is why it is dangerous that all liberal media is now setting up shop on Bluesky.

We have a critical midterm coming up and these important voices are willfully submitting to a censorship regime run by crypto VC tech bros.

Do you use the WordPress.com Reader? I am definitely not objective on this, but I think it’s a pretty nice (and free!) way to consume information, whether it comes from RSS feeds or newsletters on WordPress sites.

If you needed a little push to give the tool a try, watch this space! Over the next few weeks, @pfefferle and I will be working on a small Hackathon to bring the open social web into the WordPress.com reader (or the other way around), so you’ll have more reasons to like the Reader!
