The Future of Free Speech
@futurefreespeech.org
People are comfortable telling AI their deepest, darkest secrets… as long as they know they’re talking to AI. At #FreeSpeechSummit2025, Alice Siu explores this interesting phenomenon and what it means for how we communicate in the AI era.

“DeepSeek doesn’t just block politically sensitive questions. It generates answers that echo the party state.” At #FreeSpeechSummit2025, Ge Chen warned that AI can be used not only for censorship but for large-scale propaganda and political influence.
“If [the West] did not have press freedom, we would have to invent it for them." That's what a KGB operative said about its mission to discredit democracies by instigating hate against Jews and creating support for hate speech bans. @mchangama.bsky.social explains:
Are deepfake bans protecting democracy, or restricting political speech too broadly? At #FreeSpeechSummit2025, Kyung Sin Park argued that Korea’s AI laws ban all electoral deepfakes, including satire, parody, and even truthful content.
🚩 Your feed isn't "neutral." At our #FreeSpeechSummit2025, @noupside.bsky.social explains that every time you open an app that ranks content, someone else is deciding what is important for you to see.
At our #FreeSpeechSummit2024, @szabolcspanyi.bsky.social discussed Hungary’s crackdown on press freedom:
“Digital sovereignty” proponents argue that, to protect democracy, nations must control their online spheres. But would Viktor Orbán have lost in Hungary if the Internet were under government control? @mchangama.bsky.social at @aodemocracies.bsky.social's 2026 Copenhagen Democracy Summit:
How can we give social media users power over their feed? @noupside.bsky.social discusses ways to reshape the relationship between platforms, users, and their phones at our #FreeSpeechSummit2025.
“AI is never treated as a neutral or technical tool.” Ge Chen explained how China’s AI regulations go far beyond content moderation, embedding censorship directly into AI systems while also using AI proactively for state propaganda.
In 1961, the French government swept the killing of dozens of Algerians under the rug. On The Gist podcast, @mchangama.bsky.social talks to @milkepescs.bsky.social about how citizens now have the technology to push back against official government narratives — but only if those tools remain free.
We built these platforms, but now they’re shaping us. It’s time to flip the script. At the #FreeSpeechSummit2025, @noupside.bsky.social says platforms must place control in users’ hands.

“The ceasefire is not over." After an exchange of fire in the Strait of Hormuz, Defense Secretary Hegseth says the ceasefire with Iran still holds because the U.S. operation to let vessels pass through the waterway is a "separate and distinct project" to war with Iran. www.ms.now/liveblog/heg...

Students from #Nepean walked out today - and their message was loud and clear. They know Doug Ford’s changes to OSAP will make life harder for them. I was proud to stand with them. When young people raise their voices, the government should listen. #FixOSAPasap #onpoli
This is sped up almost 300,000% for showcase purposes. Planets now have an updated orbit trail, tapering to show the direction of orbit for planets. Star systems all now "face" a single direction, with "North" pointing to the Galaxy Center. #coding #godot #gamedev #indiedev #solodev #StarDancers

Back in the chair at Q-T-Pie Salon. It’s National Teacher’s Appreciation Week. We show our appreciation by promising investment in who they are and the students they dedicate their lives to. Dismantling the Department of Ed is not the answer. I stand with our educators! 🏀⛹🏾♂️ @barackobama.bsky.social
In some ways, the way people are acting around AI makes sense: the business is incentivized by shareholder pressure to invest heavily in it and employees are incentivized by the business to invest their energy into it. If want this to change, we need systemic fixes. @matthewsanabria.com #tech

Los Angeles works exactly as designed. The question is: who was it designed for? Angelenos know the answer. LA leaders have often put corporations before workers, families, and small businesses isn’t accidental. It’s a policy choice.
Today, I joined @prep4allnow.bsky.social, the Save HIV Funding coalition, and NYU's Engelberg Center on Innovation for a conversation about the urgent need to fully restore and expand HIV funding, and finally deliver a National PrEP Program to end the HIV epidemic once and for all.
Trump’s war with Iran is hitting families and local communities hard. @katenrg.bsky.social says rising fuel and food costs make it harder for food banks to operate, even as more families turn to them for support.
