Vom überraschend subtilen Unterschied zwischen Luisa Neubauer und Elon Musk… Man muss schon ganz genau hinschauen, um sie unterscheiden zu können. Gestern habe ich über mit 100 Menschen an ihren Haustüren gesprochen, mitten in einem der entscheidenden Wahlkreise in Pennsylvania. Von überzeugten Trumpwähler:innen bis Jill-Stein-Unterstützern, war alles dabei. Was mich dabei bedrückt hat, waren nicht die MAGA Haushalte. 1/ pic.twitter.com/pVdTE5yEbn — Luisa Neubauer (@Luisamneubauer) November […] https://ift.tt/sMFarHT

Asked about its stance on disinformation, Telegram spokesperson Remi Vaughn told AFP: "As noted by our CEO, the sheer volume of information being shared on channels makes it extremely difficult to verify, so it's important that users double-check what they read." Telegram was co-founded by Pavel and Nikolai Durov, the brothers who had previously created VKontakte. VK is Russia’s equivalent of Facebook, a social network used for public and private messaging, audio and video sharing as well as online gaming. In January, SimpleWeb reported that VK was Russia’s fourth most-visited website, after Yandex, YouTube and Google’s Russian-language homepage. In 2016, Forbes’ Michael Solomon described Pavel Durov (pictured, below) as the “Mark Zuckerberg of Russia.” What distinguishes the app from competitors is its use of what's known as channels: Public or private feeds of photos and videos that can be set up by one person or an organization. The channels have become popular with on-the-ground journalists, aid workers and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who broadcasts on a Telegram channel. The channels can be followed by an unlimited number of people. Unlike Facebook, Twitter and other popular social networks, there is no advertising on Telegram and the flow of information is not driven by an algorithm. "And that set off kind of a battle royale for control of the platform that Durov eventually lost," said Nathalie Maréchal of the Washington advocacy group Ranking Digital Rights. "There are a lot of things that Telegram could have been doing this whole time. And they know exactly what they are and they've chosen not to do them. That's why I don't trust them," she said.
