I spoke with @Tierney_Megan about our @SunWebIntegrity work and examples we've seen of employees & contractors intentionally changing federal sites. Her reporting sheds light on these cases of bureaucracy and leadership playing a direct role in obfuscating public information

Jim Tozzi, a gregarious 81-year-old former New Orleans jazz musician who was largely responsible for the passage of the IQA in 2001, is not shy about the IQA’s origins as a tool for industry to challenge government regulation.

He’s also not surprised to see that it would be used by others. “I knew at some point in time, the NGOs were going to use it,” Tozzi says. “I kept on telling everyone, you just wait.”

Our friends at @SunWebIntegrity published this powerful report about how the Trump administration has been erasing LGBT issues from the Web. Grateful they were able to use the @internetarchive's Wayback Machine to support their research: msn.com/en-gb/news/world/thi… #TruthMatters
