#shadowbans sind ein großes Problem. Wenn nun nicht nur die benannten Verdächtigen wie X, sondern auch etablierte Dienste wie LinkedIn zu solchen Maßnahmen greifen, dann zerstört es das Vertrauen in alle Plattformen der US-amerikanischen #Oligarchen.

Und dann sehe ich, dass selbst mein Bio-Versorger mir nurdie Feedback-Wahl zwischen WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram und X lässt. 🤬

LinkedIn, Shadow Bans und die ...

@materialist.danarxist I can't tell if my account got #shadowbanned to no longer federate my posts.

Just had a naughty thought... when a service provider (Reddit, Facebook, etc.) #ShadowBans someone using their service, they should also activate a script that continues to add likes to their posts, and new fake followers to their account. Stoke their ego while they shout into the void! 😈

Oookej? Avd. #Algoritmer #shadowbans osv.

#JimCrow was enforced in my lifetime. The #FreedomSummer murders happened in my lifetime.
#JFK, #MalcolmX, #MLK, #RFK, the #BlackPanthers, all assassinated in my lifetime.
The entire #Holocaust happened during my Mom's lifetime.
#MathewShephard was murdered for being #Gay less than 30 years ago.
These fuckers are complaining about fucking "#Woke" about fucking "#ShadowBans?
Some fucking motherfuckers need to be throat-punched.
The future happens a lot faster than you think.

I see how this will be a remotely good thing for the #BirdSite like seriously.

A lot of #Artists and #Vtubers will be fucked over by this. Because #Shadowbans are still a problem over on #Twitter / #X

I miss the old Twitter, seriously. It was fantastic; sure, it was not perfect, but it was an amazing place to be on. Now? I rarely ever go there, I lurk here on #Mastodon a lot.

#Elon #Musk, hater of #shadowbans, has ordered #Ukrainians posting the truth about #Russian war #crimes #shadowbanned.

#Elon #Musk, decrier of #ShadowBans, has #ShadowBanned #OSINT organization #Bellingcat for identifying Texas shooter to #FarRight, since it hurt #Elon's feelings, and that's illegal.

@mastodonmigration Reminder: Shadowbans are not Eloon's invention. They were widely applied, when Jack Dorsey still owned the birdsite.
And AFAIK it's not confirmed, that Dorsey's new corporate medium will not apply the same manipulative practices, that he approved on twitter.

Chinese dissidents are discovering that depending on DataFarms to get their messages out isn't always reliable:

Just made a #sworker resources room in our #discord server, for #sexWorkers to let others know about #adultContent - friendly #socialMedia , #livestream and #video platforms, informative articles, etc. Please feel free to check it out by joining our #outcastCreatorCollective server at https://discord.gg/cMtKd8j3 where you'll find a supportive community of "outcast #contentCreators" and our supporters, by which we mean #creators who often face #censorship, #shadowbans, #bannedContent, and other forms of persecution online that "#capitalismFriendly" content approved of by #thePatriarchy do not have to endure.

You don't have to be a creator yourself (or specialize in #nudity #sexWorker or other often-censored types of content), just be prepared to cross paths with those who are, and remain respectful. :)

The main parts of the server are all SFW and require additional age verification to access the #18plus areas, so you don't have to worry about stumbling into sexually explicit content if you don't want!

Thanks and we really hope to get to know you! Our goal is to grow a diverse, supportive and useful network of outcast creators where we can #collaborate, commiserate, share resources, and even make new friends!

@Lorry Indeed a bot can trivially detect a #shadowban. They don’t even need another account. Simply fetch the page of their post w/out passing a cookie. So this #shadowbanning practice which was naïvely designed for bots ends up only wasting /human/ time. It’s why I’m done w/ #Reddit. And holy shit: it was recently pointed out to me that all blocks by #Mastodon are #shadowbans.

Are you ready for Fedi?

Fed up with their algorithms feeding you timelines you didn't ask for?

Fed up with random lockouts accompanied by requests for personal data to continue, #fedUp with the numbers being shoved at you, the creepy suggestions, the need to be identified, the #shadowBans?

Fed up with your every interaction, click and pause being used to learn you, hook you, influence and market you to corporate masters?

Fed up? It's why millions have switched to #Fediverse.

#readyForFedi

@syndikalista I also wonder how many #shadowbans have been made. while I have been reading negative coments about the protest have been dominating. ...and I just can't believe most ppl are anti #noG20, especially while the streets are full
