SUMMARY:Data and Democracy Symposium | Knight First Amendment Institute
DESCRIPTION:Today\, governments and private actors can collect\, store\, and continuously update vast troves of data. Yet we have barely begun to understand the impact on our democracy of large-scale data collection and the use of such data sets to make decisions that can dramatically impact individual lives and entire communities. \nThe Data and Democracy Symposium will investigate what our changing capacities to capture\, analyze\, and manipulate data mean for self-government\, and ask how the law must adapt to ensure the conditions for a robust democracy. Organized by the Institute’s Senior Visiting Research Scholar\, Yale Law Professor Amy Kapczynski\, and co-sponsored by the Law and Political Economy Project at Yale Law School\, the symposium will focus on three areas that are both central to democratic governance and directly affected by advancing technologies and ever-increasing data collection: 1) public opinion formation and access to information; 2) the formation and exercise of public power; and 3) the political economy of data. \n[…] \n\n\n\n\n end article metadata  \n\n end article social  end article body

SUMMARY:False News and Fact-Checking: Information Flows During a Pandemic and Presidential Election | NYU Center for Social Media and Politics: Election Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Since the 2016 election\, Facebook\, Twitter\, YouTube and others have struggled to contain the spread of false and misleading information on their platforms.

Carter Journalism Institute and First Amendment Watch\, a project of the Institute that serves as an educational resource for journalists seeking to understand their rights. \n[…]
