This is the 1⃣st time platforms report with such extensive data under anti #disinformation Code. We must understand how it works & act, given increasing digitalisation. Disinfo remains a weapon in 🇷🇺’s war, undermining our #democracy. Upcoming #elections will be a stress test.

This is a big step forward. We now have a robust code that provides for an effective and transparent fight against disinformation. Now it's up to the signatories and other stakeholders gathered in the Code's Taskforce to use it to its full potential.

Der russische Überfall markiert eine Zeitenwende. Es ist unsere Pflicht, die Ukraine nach Kräften zu unterstützen bei der Verteidigung gegen die Invasionsarmee von #Putin. Deshalb liefern wir 1000 Panzerabwehrwaffen und 500 Stinger-Raketen an unsere Freunde in der #Ukraine.

We are fully preserving freedom of speech, because we move away from assessing content and rather focus on amplification tools & on empowering social media users, so they can verify and influence what are they seeing,and who paid for it. We want a responsible digital environment.

A new stronger Code is necessary as we need online platforms to address the systemic risks of their services and algorithmic amplification, stop policing themselves alone and stop allowing to make money on #disinformation. #DigitalEU #EUvsDisinfo

Eine kleine Selbstkorrektur: Wir haben gestern bereits unsere Tweets zu #AstraZeneca gelöscht, als wir für einen Artikel genauer recherchiert hatten. Denn es geht nicht um Thrombosen sondern Sinusvenenthrombosen. Die 7 Fälle sind nicht geklärt, es gibt Fragezeichen, ABER... [1/5]
