It's no longer controversial to claim that #BigTech is a parasite on the #news business. But there's still a raging controversy over the nature of the parasitism, and, much more importantly, *what to do about it*.

This week on @EFF's Deeplinks blog, I kick off a new series on the abusive relationship between Big Tech and the news, analyzing four different dirty practices and proposing policy answers to all four:

So of course #NationalPost publishes an article by a white Conservative who absolutely mischaracterizes what people are saying. NO ONE is saying not to investigate lest it inflame anti-Asian hate. We are saying this op exploits anti-Asian hate. #CdnMediaFailed #cdnpoli
As for “cozying up to Beijing”, no one has done that more than #Conservatives. #cdnpoli #cdnmedia #CdnMediaFailed
I’m re-upping some recent 🧵 in light of more reckless reporting from Sam Cooper @globalnews. Cooper’s recent piece does not cite A SINGLE actionable piece of evidence. Nor is there ANY mention of the degree of confidence of the intelligence or whether it had even been assessed.
2 leakers disseminate selected intelligence of unknown confidence to Fife & Cooper, 2 reporters the leakers knew would do exactly what was predicable. The groupthink inability to employ critical reasoning from within #CdnMediaFailed, ensued. #cdnpoli
The one leaker wrote an op-ed in which the leaker’s political agenda, self-righteousness & sanctimony, were revealed.
Again I will say, there hasn’t been any actionable evidence put forward at any time from @globalnews or @globeandmail. #CdnMediaColludes #cdnpoli

(Thread) Breaking. The intellectual disciple of the far right Jordan Peterson is being treated in RUSSIA for a benzo addiction which his daughter claims was ‘misdiagnosed’ in North America. apple.news/AuIBGdqirSOCcw…
2. Peterson is the University of Toronto psychology professor who became the acceptable face of the far right through his intellectual justifications of racist iconography like Pepe The Frog. He made a fortune through donations on YouTube and Patreon. @NarativLive
3. My heart goes out to Peterson and his family. His situation is dire and I wish him a long-lasting recovery. Secondly, it's appalling that the right wing @NationalPost has reported on this without context, especially as Peterson is a columnist for them. nationalpost.com/news/jordan-pe…
