Meta's AI bot built into Instagram can't be turned off. The findings from @CommonSense raise serious concerns about platform safety—yet again.
TTP found Meta pays groups like @NationalPTA to be mouthpieces that promote Instagram's teen accounts.

"Meta AI chatbot built into Instagram and Facebook can coach teen accounts on suicide, self-harm and eating disorders, a new safety study finds. In one test chat, the bot planned joint suicide — and then kept bringing it back up in later conversations."

NEW: @misstessowen writes for @WIRED about the growing group of Christian nationalist militia influencers on Instagram identified in research by TTP.
There's a new guard of paramilitary activists, whose youthful membership, edgy aesthetics, use of Instagram, and, in many cases, overt nods to religion points to a new brand of anti-government Christian nationalist militias. https://www.wired.com/story/christian-militias-instagram-recruit-influencers/?utm_brand=wired&utm_social-type=owned&utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=aud-dev
NEW: a TTP report reveals how Google—which at one time spent the most on lobbying of any U.S. corporation—employed an obscure legal strategy that reduced the amount of lobbying spending it discloses under federal law by removing executive lobbying from disclosures.

Crypto miners and data centers got sweetheart energy deals in Texas, premised on the idea that boosted grid capacity could serve the state by being redirected in times of crisis.
But now that a new law is set to make some emergency shutoffs mandatory, the industry has concerns.

Last month, we identified weapons ads with this video of Glocks being pushed to users in the EU.
More than a month later, and the exact same video is being used to push weapons trafficking ads on Meta platforms targeting users in the EU (cc @DigitalEU )

Another day of #MetaGunAds as Meta profits from users freely trafficking weapons in ads.
These Instagram ads linking to a "black market" weapons Telegram were run in both the U.S. and the EU (cc @DigitalEU @HennaVirkkunen).
One ad had 3 versions—none caught by Meta's systems
It's been more than a year since TTP first published a report on the hundreds of drug ads on Meta platforms - and ongoing findings suggest they have done little to deal with the problem of #MetaDrugAds - opiates like codeine, unmarked pills, and psychedelics still persist in ads.

Time to check if Meta is doing anything about the illegal drug advertisements that @sal19 just wrote about in the @WSJ!
For a start, Meta claims to have shown this ad featuring a brick of cocaine to 2,129 users in the EU...
This week, CfA filed a bar complaint with the New York Attorney Grievance Committee asking for an investigation into John Sarcone III, the Acting U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of New York, for actions that appear to violate the bar's Rules of Professional Conduct.
