Hello everyone!

How are you all?? I hope you are all fine.

Today Update

😱 Former Wikimedia CEO coordinated censorship efforts

Katherine Maher, the former CEO and Executive Director of the Wikimedia Foundation, responsible for Wikipedia, states that her biggest challenge in combating disinformation is the First Amendment in the United States. She finds it tricky to tackle “bad information” and the people who spread it due to this constitutional protection of free speech.

Ironically, Katherine serves as the chair of the board of directors at the Signal Foundation, an American non-profit organization with a mission to “protect free expression and enable secure global communication through open-source privacy technology.”

During her time as Wikimedia CEO, she also coordinated censorship “through conversations with the government” and suppressed content related to the pandemic and the 2020 election.

Marc Andreessen, general partner of Andreessen Horowitz, said that they are doing the same to AI right now.
The whole point of #Wikipedia was to crowd-source information, not centralize it in a single person.

Elon Musk added that she “hates the Constitution of the USA.”
