When and how did you feel that you were subject to harm on-line? This is very hard to share and remember and I am simply starting with your questions from the beginning. I am going to leave a lot of information out, and will have more information in different states of mind, later. Around 2012 I participated in activism and discovered malicious [things] in the devices of activists. Many of their devices were simply not being used because they had been maliciously disabled. This later happened to my devices in coordination with algorithmic harm. The algorithmic harm became clearly apparent some months later when facebook began filtering my messages and those of others. Comments would only show up to some people, not to others. Long story short, a handful of us were roughly enslaved by the algorithms. Three of us were diagnosed with schizophrenia in the same year. Many others began posting to facebook as if they were talking to god, or have otherwise revealed that they were enslaved at that time. We were trained to disrupt the behaviors of others, to disrupt our own lives, and to cover it up and delete the evidence of this. The mechanisms of slavery ranged from organised social group behaviors to socially isolating bubbles of communication and extensive timed display of triggering or relaxing imagery, and happened over multiple years. Many of the people involved are dead now or deleted their accounts. > 2.

The use of machine learning in insecure and private ways facilitates technically advanced human trafficking. > 3.

We need to be able to understand exactly how they make decisions, and change what these decisions are. We need channels to work with support when the decisions are severely harmful. I don't trust corporations here. They aren't used to transparent protocols and design. I trust open source technologies. > 4. Did you take any measures to address this issue through the social > media's protocols, and what was the response? I have never received a reply from Facebook's support team. I suspect they never received my complaints, because I worked with them before this issue and the were quite friendly. Sometimes when I push an issue very strongly and clearly and keep making it larger, it will resolve itself only to the point that I am addressing, usually without anyone from the company talking to me. > Thanks so much for being willing to share.

[for human eyes only] Algorithmic Justice League
by Karl 15 Jan '21

15 Jan '21

https://www.ajl.org/ In today’s world, AI systems are used to decide who gets hired, the quality of medical treatment we receive, and whether we become a suspect in a police investigation. While these tools show great promise, they can also harm vulnerable and marginalized people, and threaten civil rights. Unchecked, unregulated and, at times, unwanted, AI systems can amplify racism, sexism, ableism, and other forms of discrimination. The Algorithmic Justice League’s mission is to raise awareness about the impacts of AI, equip advocates with empirical research, build the voice and choice of the most impacted communities, and galvanize researchers, policy makers, and industry practitioners to mitigate AI harms and biases. We’re building a movement to shift the AI ecosystem towards equitable and accountable AI.

What a fucking moron https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1872/09/08.htm You know that the institutions, mores, and traditions of various countries must be taken into consideration, and we do not deny that there are countries -- such as America, England, and if I were more familiar with your institutions, I would perhaps also add Holland -- where the workers can attain their goal by peaceful means..."

Its traditional for some French people to physically support revolutionists in colonies overseas. Amirite? These days, that's even easier thanks to crypto-anarchist technologies. Btw, the more popular our tools become the more " Left ' global anarchism becomes. Even idiots like Marc Andresen can see that.

Tor HSDIR outage (resolved?)

via reddit: """ You will currently not be able to access any v3 onion addresses, what is happening is unknown, but it is potentially a huge attack on the entire network. Earlier today I made a post outlining consequences I would be putting into place to deter markets from funding DoS attacks against each other, as the potential to scale and completely kill every node on the network is a very real potential outcome. Now everything is down and I have no idea if this has sped up the process of this ocurring or if it is even an attack at all, all I know is, this is big.
