Bellingcat is the world’s biggest citizen-run intelligence agency, investigating everything from the 2014 shoot-down of MH17 to the various plots to kill Russian dissident Alexei Navalny. The person behind it all? Eliot Higgins. wired.com/story/how-to-l…
Bellingcat’s trajectory tells a scathing story about the nature of truth in the 21st century. Hard facts have been devalued. Online, everyone can present, and believe in, their own narratives, even if they’re mere tissues of lies. wired.com/story/how-to-l…
The year ahead may be the biggest of @bellingcat's life. In addition to tracking conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza, its analysts will also be flooded with falsified artifacts from elections in the US, the UK, India, and dozens of other countries. wired.com/story/how-to-l…

This photo of Donald Trump with Black voters is completely fake. It’s just one of many examples of how AI is being used in 2024 elections around the 🌎

So, at WIRED, we’re tracking political deepfakes until the end of the year and we need your help: wired.com/story/generati…

With our interactive political deepfake tracker, you can sort by region and country to zero in on how AI is being used in the 2024 election.

In our Europe AI tracker section, we’ve reviewed everything from a video that appears to show AI Putin interviewing… Putin?

Also, a deepfake video that appears to show Zelenskyy dancing.

Even before Sam Bankman-Fried, Faruk Fatih Özer had built a crypto empire. Now, the 27-year-old is facing a prison sentence of 11,196 years.

Did he almost get away with the biggest heist in Turkey’s history, or was it a misunderstanding? WIRED deep dive: wired.trib.al/wMvxpYp
Following decades of political turmoil in Turkey, at 23, Özer founded a crypto exchange called Thodex by investing just 40,000 lira ($11,100 US). He advertised his company as a way to prevent economic volatility, using a playbook from Silicon Valley. wired.com/story/faruk-oz…
In a few years, thousands of people bought in. Thodex expanded, reaching the upper echelons of society and government. By March 2021, Turkey became one of the top five nations for crypto use and Özer’s company was booming. wired.com/story/faruk-oz…

🧵 For 13 years, Del Harvey ran Twitter’s trust and safety team–if there was an issue with content people would say “DM Del.” Now, Harvey pulls back the curtain on Twitter’s decisions to mute, ban and block posts in the pre-Elon era 1/

But Del Harvey isn’t even her real name, although that’s what everyone knows her as. In 2003, Harvey worked for a nonprofit called Perverted Justice that investigated online predators. That led to Harvey working in TV with the NBC series “To Catch a Predator.” 2/10 Image
Five years later, when a friend reached out and suggested Harvey take a job at a fledgling tech company, it seemed like a walk in the park compared to catching pedophiles. 3/10

🧵The Far North is thawing, unleashing clouds of planet-heating gas. Scientists rely on an arsenal of tech to understand permafrost environments better and sniff out just how nasty the problem really is. wired.trib.al/TwLiZ8G Image
As Arctic temperatures rise thawing permafrost releases methane, a gas that’s 80 times more potent than carbon dioxide at warming the planet. Those clouds of methane raise global temperatures, which thaws more permafrost, which releases more methane. It’s a problem. 2/7 Image
To reckon with how big of a problem we’re facing a group of self-described “methane detectives” use various instruments to determine how much organic matter exists within permafrost sites which will give them some idea of how much methane that site will release as it warms. 3/7 Image
