“You have journalists and activists in authoritarian regimes in Africa, the Middle East, and Asia who are now even at the mercy of even more vicious trolls with no ability to fight back. It's literally life or death for people.” Musk doesn't appear to care.

Musk’s reinstatement of suspended accounts means bringing back networks of individuals that include the American Nazi Party and “a whole bunch of 8chan, 4chan, conspiracy theorists who engage in violent harassment and online abuse.”

Musk's decision to revive nearly all banned accounts will turn the platform "into a one-stop shop for operationalizing doxxing and harassment, and an engine of radicalization." https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2022/11/24/twitter-musk-reverses-suspensions/ #tech #technology #twitter #elon #twittermigration #twittermigrate
👋🏻 I'm Skylar (he/him). I grew up in New Orleans and moved to Madison, Wisconsin for graduate school in #Geology before changing tracks and becoming a middle/high school #Teacher.
In the #Education realm, I'm particularly passionate about #OutdoorLearning, #ProgressiveEducation, and #StudentVoice. I currently teach at Koshkonong Trails School, a small, public charter school with an environmental and agricultural focus; serve on the boards for the Wisconsin Association for Environmental Education and Human Restoration Project (@humrespro); and lead the Wisconsin Teacher-Powered Schools Network.
I like to write about teaching, and take nature photos, which I post to Medium and Flickr, respectively. I'm particularly fond of rocks and lichen.
I was heavily invested in the bird network before the billionaire took over, but I deleted my account and am learning how to Mastodon. c.im seemed like a friendly server that wasn't as absurdly large as mastodon.social, which I initially joined.
I'm excited to have a new online community to explore, while also mourning the one I've left behind. #Introduction #TwitterMigration
@blaine These organizations, and the admins who will use their services, should swear an oath to uphold the #SantaClaraPrinciples too. If an admin, paid or free, would not agree to it, then they should not be allowed to use their blocklists/reports/signals. In the same way, admins should not subscribe to such organizations who doesn't abide by The Santa Clara Principles.
Mastodon on your own domain without hosting a server https://blog.maartenballiauw.be/post/2022/11/05/mastodon-own-donain-without-hosting-server.html
Question for server admins
Server admins: How do you feel about the potential legal/liability issues of running a Mastodon instance? CSAM, CSEM, COPPA, DMCA, other copyright issues... Do you own a LLC or a gGmbH (in Germany) to protect yourself?

Evening #edutooter, I just wondered if anyone had any recommendations for a great spelling scheme for KS2? Our MAT has recommended we use 'No Nonsense Spelling', but I'm really interested to hear what others use successfully. Our school is about 85% EAL. Thanks for the help! 😁 #Spelling #Spellings

Just tried out this tool that lets you make royalty free images through AI when you give it a description. It's freemium. I'm thoroughly impressed and will be playing around with it more. https://openai.com/dall-e-2/?fbclid=IwAR18VbMYJl_R9PKxnf_jC2as8Gvo244jNBx31av-lLXSr1TVD-W5Ds4C5Cw&mibextid=Zxz2cZ
