    Google says it bans ads promoting medical misinformation like fake cancer cures... but nevertheless it accepted money to run ads that contain the phrase "natural cancer cures". Is anyone minding the (literal) store? Good find by .

    I also couldn't find the circa 2007 ipod touch I use to record interviews (I use three devices to record each interview lol but that one has the best sound quality?) but that doesn't count as forgetting.

    One of the interesting things about watching the Chamberlain aesthetic on YouTube is how familiar it feels to a lot of the creators I was watching c 2010-2012, who were then either replaced by or adapted to a more polished approach

    Facebook announced some measures to limit the spread of cancer and other medical misinfo on news feeds. Basically, anti vaccine misinfo is just part of a much bigger web of medical conspiracy theories that have been embedded in the Internet for years.

    curious how much this will impact, if at all 1) posts in mainstream health groups where cancer/health misinfo is regularly posted and 2) groups like the ones I wrote about, where people literally diagnose each other and promote natural "cures" in the comments.

    Perhaps you saw reports about a study that links Russia Twitter trolling to Trump's poll numbers in 2016. Take it with any number of grains of salt.

    Facebook just released an update on new efforts to minimize "sensational health claims" on the platform. Basically, their strategy seems to be to treat sensational health claims in the News Feed in the same way it treats clickbait
