SUMMARY:OXDEG: ‘Don’t forget to like\, subscribe and turn on the bell notifications’
DESCRIPTION:“We are delighted to welcome Zoë Glatt for an OxDEG talk on ‘An (auto)ethnography of YouTube creators’ labour in the online video industry’ \nIn the late 2000’s a new and exciting cultural phenomenon was bubbling under the surface. Around the world\, teens in their bedrooms were turning on their webcams to film asynchronous conversations with unknown audiences and uploading them to YouTube. Online communities started to flourish on the platform and new genres began to crystallise: vlogs\, tutorials\, comedy sketches\, video responses. In these early years being a ‘YouTuber’ was not yet a viable career and creator culture mainly flew under the radar of mainstream media organisations\, or else was viewed as trivial or insignificant. Since then\, we have seen the rise a new and powerful cross-platform creative industry. What began as pockets of amateur creators on YouTube has grown into a mature infrastructure of diverse and competing platforms\, such as Instagram\, TikTok\, Patreon\, Facebook and Twitch\, that combine online video and social networking affordances with opportunities for content creators to earn an income. \nShifting patterns of employment in the creative industries away from stable structures\, and the emergence of a new neoliberal worker-subject: entrepreneurial\, flexible\, self-directed and always available to work\, has been the topic of much academic scrutiny over the past decade (Gill 2010; Gill and Pratt 2008; Ross 2009; McRobbie 2016; Schlesinger 2016). Studies of this type of work have highlighted the collapse of boundaries between work and play\, intermittent and precarious income\, and a passionate attachment to work and the identity of creative labour (Erin-Duffy 2017). The platform-native online video industry offers new sociocultural and economic formations of creative labour\, fraught with ambivalence and precarity\, that require critical scrutiny. In particular\, the imperative for content creators to diversify income streams across multiple platforms\, brand deals\, merch and tour sales\, advertising revenue and crowdfunding\, all whilst scrutinising popularity metrics and audience feedback\, marks an extension of the neoliberal worker subjectivity. \nIn order to research the lived experiences and labour of aspiring and professional YouTube content creators\, I concluded that it was insufficient to merely watch\, like and comment on videos; I needed to become a YouTuber myself. In this talk\, as well as discussing my preliminary findings\, I reflect on my journey and experiences of using this experimental digital ethnographic method\, in addition to multi-sited online/offline fieldwork and interviews with content creators. As social media platforms have increasingly profound sociocultural impacts\, researchers need to find new methodological tools for engaging critically with this changing landscape. Autoethnography has provided me with significant insights into the labour of online creators\, from the ways in which they understand and navigate algorithms\, channel metrics and the multi-platform environment\, to the emotional highs and lows of trying to cultivate an audience.”

SUMMARY:Can We Build Social Media that’s Good for Society?: UMass Amherst
DESCRIPTION:“Speaker: Ethan Zuckerman \nAbstract:  The tech backlash is in full force\, and it’s rapidly becoming conventional wisdom that social media is polarizing our politics\, abusing our attention\, misinforming our democracy and damaging our emotional health. But the situation is far more complex than it seems at first glance. Some of these critiques are not well supported by research. And those that are true apply to a particular model of social media\, based around surveillant advertising and an endless quest for human attention. What would it mean to build social media expressly designed to strengthen democratic society? Can we imagine an alternative system where public service digital media overcomes some of the thorniest problems of our contemporary online world?”

SUMMARY:Misinformation Speaker Series: David Lazer
DESCRIPTION:“ABSTRACT: The Internet is increasingly the home of democracy. It is where people turn for civic information\, engage in political discourse public and private\, and turn to mobilize collectively. The virtual structures of the Internet are\, in some ways\, quite distinct from what preceded; and in other ways\, they reproduce and amplify those pre-existing patterns. The Internet can be the ultimate disseminator of misinformation; as well as the ultimate educator. People have at their fingertips more diverse sources of information than ever before; yet many of the institutions for the production of political and civic information are being eviscerated. This talk will discuss the informational and social logics of the Internet– what is our democracy\, today?– how they support and undermine democracy\, and concludes with a discussion of what structures and practices we need from the Internet to support democracy\, today. \nBIO: Northeastern University Professor David Lazer’s research focuses on the nexus of network science\, computational social science\, and collaborative intelligence. He is the founder of the citizen science website Volunteer Science. His research has been published in such journals as Science\, Proceedings of the National Academy of Science\, the American Political Science Review\, and the Administrative Science Quarterly\, and has received extensive coverage in the media\, including the New York Times\, NPR\, the Washington Post\, the Wall Street Journal\, and CBS Evening News.”

SUMMARY:New America: Spotlight on Transparency
DESCRIPTION:“Over the past decade\, companies across different industries have begun issuing regular transparency reports so their customers and the general public can better understand the impact of the companies’ operations. Transparency reporting is now a best practice for reporting on a range of topics including government requests for user data\, content moderation\, pay transparency\, customer safety\, and sustainability efforts. Through their reports\, these companies and organizations provide statistical and qualitative information regarding how they treat their customers and stakeholders\, how they handle their customers’ information\, and how the companies’ operations affect their communities. While transparency reports differ across industries and subject areas\, these reports—from their development to the content—offer valuable lessons for companies across various sectors that looking to get started or improve their transparency reports.\n\nJoin New America’s Open Technology Institute for a panel event on the value of transparency reporting\, and how this practice can be expanded to focus on new issues and industries. \nFollow the conversation online using #TransparencyReport and following @OTI.” \n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Databite No. 126: Joe Mulhall | Data & Society
DESCRIPTION:“Data & Society welcomes Joe Mulhall\, senior researcher at European anti-extremism NGO HOPE not hate\, for a public talk to explore how the international far right is leveraging the current climate crisis\, with a special focus on networked disinformation and exclusive new polling research across six countries around the world. \nOur planet is warming\, our seas are rising\, and while the human cost of this will be massive\, the human cause of it is undeniable. Or at least\, it should be. Rising sea levels and the desertification of already dry areas could see millions across our world being displaced. The climate crisis is a massive threat to quality of life\, but for some people\, it’s also an opportunity. Across Europe\, the 2015 migrant crisis destabilized civil society\, leading to the rise of the AfD in Germany\, the Lega party in Italy\, and allowing Viktor Orban to whip up anti-migrant rhetoric in Hungary. These conditions are a petri dish for conspiracy theorists\, politicians\, corporate interests\, and especially a boon for the rhetoric of extreme anti-migration factions pushing online disinformation.”

SUMMARY:Databite No. 127: Jasmine McNealy | Data & Society
DESCRIPTION:“Data are currency. Data provide the fuel for decision-making and profit-making. Data offer evidence for enhancing health services\, infrastructure\, and zoning\, and for addressing environmental concerns. But the collection and use of data is spurring conflicts between cities\, corporate and civil society organizations\, and constituents. These conflicts occur on the grounds of data ownership\, access\, privacy\, and security. \nDr. McNealy traces these conflicts to our perception of data as a singular piece of property. A better metaphor for data\, she contends\, would be that of a networked representation or observation in an ecosystem. Dr. McNealy argues that we require an ecological approach for understanding this era of emergent technology and data — both for creating adequate policy\, and for protecting the vulnerable.”

SUMMARY:Misinformation Speaker Series: Andrew Guess
DESCRIPTION:Event featured image\, but exclude link  Event content  \n\n“Please join us for a talk by Andrew Guess\, Assistant Professor of Politics and Public Affairs at Princeton University. \nSpeaker Bio:  Andrew Guess (Ph.D. Columbia University) is an assistant professor of politics and public affairs at Princeton University. His research and teaching interests lie at the intersection of political communication\, public opinion\, and political behavior. Via a combination of experimental methods\, large datasets\, machine learning\, and innovative measurement\, he studies how people choose\, process\, spread\, and respond to information about politics. Recent work investigates the extent to which online Americans’ news habits are polarized (the popular “echo chambers” hypothesis)\, patterns in the consumption and spread of online misinformation\, and the effectiveness of efforts to counteract misperceptions encountered on social media. Coverage of these findings has appeared in The New York Times\, The New Yorker\, Slate\, The Chronicle of Higher Education\, and other publications. His research has been supported by grants from the Volkswagen Foundation\, Russell Sage Foundation\, and the American Press Institute and published in peer-reviewed journals such as the American Journal of Political Science\, Journal of Politics\, and Political Analysis.”

SUMMARY:You Won’t Believe How the Chinese Government Uses Clickbait!
DESCRIPTION:“Visting Speaker: Jennifer Pan\, Assistant Professor of Communication\, Assistant Professor of Political Science and Sociology\, Stanford University \nAbstract \nThere is a growing consensus that political propaganda in the age of mass media worked\, shaping attitudes and behaviors in favor of governments by suppressing alternative media sources and dominating public attention. What happens to political propaganda in the age of digital media? In the digital context\, political actors do not automatically dominate systems of information transmission even when they successfully deploy online censorship. Online censorship can reshape the contours of what information is available on social media\, but censorship does not decrease the overall volume of information. The constraints and opportunities provided by modern social media platforms\, which are generally built on an ad-revenue model and therefore aim to maximize clicks\, are transforming the ways which governments engage in propaganda online. In this paper\, we use ethnographic fieldwork to show how producers of propaganda in China face incentives to capture clicks. We then collect and analyze posts made by over 200 Chinese city-government WeChat accounts to show how “clickbait”—the process of providing just enough information in a headline so as to grab the reader’s attention by creating an information gap—features prominently in governments’ propaganda strategies. While governments’ use of clickbait is associated with more views\, it does not predict more positive assessments of content. \nThis paper is co-authored with Yingdan Lu\, a PhD student in Communication at Stanford. \nAbout the speaker \n\nJennifer Pan is an Assistant Professor of Communication\, and an Assistant Professor\, by courtesy\, of Political Science and Sociology at Stanford University. Her research is at the intersection of political communication\, computational social science\, and authoritarian politics. Pan focuses on how autocrats control information to shape public preferences and behaviors in the digital age\, using experimental and computational methods with large-scale datasets on political activity in China and other non-democratic regimes. Her work has appeared in peer-reviewed publications such as the American Political Science Review\, American Journal of Political Science\, The Journal of Politics\, and Science. Pan received her Ph.D. from Harvard University’s Department of Government\, and she received her A.B. from the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs at Princeton University. More information on her work can be found at jenpan.com.”

SUMMARY:Misinformation Speaker Series: Young Mie Kim
DESCRIPTION:“Please join us for a talk by Young Mie Kim\, Professor\, School of Journalism and Mass Communication\, at University of Wisconsin-Madison. \nThis event is part of the Misinformation Speaker series\, co-sponsored by the NULab and the Shorenstein Center for Media\, Politics\, and Public Policy at the Harvard Kennedy School. \nSpeaker Bio: \nYoung Mie Kim is a Professor of the School of Journalism and Mass Communication and a Faculty Affiliate of the Department of Political Science. Kim is an Andrew Carnegie Fellow. \nKim’s research concerns media and politics in the age of data-driven digital media\, specifically the role digital media play in political communication among political leaders\, non-party groups (issue advocacy groups)\, and citizens. \nKim’s recent research project\, Project DATA (Digital Ad Tracking & Analysis)\, empirically investigates the sponsors/sources\, content\, and targets of digital political campaigns across multiple platforms with a user-based\, real-time\, ad tracking tool that reverse engineers the algorithms of political campaigns. The project uncovers the “behind-the-scenes” operations of digital political campaigns\, i.e.\, microtargeting practices (individual-level voter identification\, targeting\, and message placement and customization strategies).”

SUMMARY:WEBINAR: What is “Zoom Bombing?” Media Manipulation and Sociotechnical Vulnerabilities
DESCRIPTION:“The Technology and Social Change Research Team at Harvard Kennedy School’s Shorenstein Center will describe the phenomenon of “zoom bombing\,” the act of hijacking a virtual meeting\, and its consequences. This is not a Zoom training\, it will just be an overview of security concerns surrounding Zoom and research relating to the manipulation of networked communication systems. \nWhile many of us did not expect to spend the Spring cloistered at home in virtual meetings\, our rapid adoption of Zoom has exposed some serious design flaws\, raising the concern of the FBI. While we are not cyber security experts\, we see “zoom bombing” as a sociotechnical vulnerability which occurs when the default settings of the technology are leveraged by intruders to disrupt communication\, sometimes just for fun\, but also for more targeted reasons. We will describe how “zoom bombing” occurs and offer some tips and field questions based on our research of the manipulation of networked communication systems. \nRegistration for this event is required\, details on how to join the webinar will be sent to registered participants the day before the event. Register here.”

SUMMARY:WEBCAST: Disinformation Amid the Coronavirus Pandemic
DESCRIPTION:“As the coronavirus has spread globally\, so has disinformation and censorship by authoritarian governments. Both Russia and China have attempted to spread false information about the genesis of the virus and China has clamped down internally on information surrounding the pandemic\, silencing both domestic reporters and whistleblowers. Yet even democracies are not immune: Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro has been condemned by social media sites and members of his own government for spreading disinformation on social distancing measures recommended by public health authorities. \nSTIP Disinformation Fellow Nina Jankowicz\, Kissinger Institute Associate Rui Zhong\, and Brazil Institute Senior Associate Anya Prusa will discuss disinformation surrounding the coronavirus and the U.S. response.”

SUMMARY:The Shift: Public Space | Institute for Public Knowledge
DESCRIPTION:“NYU’s Institute for Public Knowledge\, Civic Signals\, The Social Science Research Council\, and The Knight Foundation invite you to a discussion on public spaces in the series on “The Shift\,” featuring Eric Klinenberg\, Toni Griffin\, Chelina Odbert\, Tony Ageh\, Eli Pariser\, and Mona Sloane. In the first episode\, this series will examine how we develop digital forms of public space as much of our social life moves online\, and how this shifts our sense of community. What is the role of public space in society? What can public space do (and not do)? What do we lose when we lose physical public space\, and how do people make up for that in the digital realm? The discussion will address these questions by exploring how vital public spaces are enacted virtually – such as the library\, the park\, the street -\, looking at what makes these spaces civically useful in both their physical and their digital form\, and asking what we can and must learn from this for a post-COVID-19 world.”
