The Future of Free Speech
@futurefreespeech.org
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.

Can AI help people change their minds? At #FreeSpeechSummit2025, Alice Siu shared research showing that AI-assisted deliberation can shift opinions just as effectively as human-moderated discussions.
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.
Do you trust the current administration as the arbiter of truth? What about the next one? At a recent @cato.org event, @mchangama.bsky.social explains how bottom-up social media fact-checking systems can empower citizens to question official narratives.
The latest assassination attempt on Donald Trump reflects a moment of heightened political tension and violence in America. But at @france24.com, @mchangama.bsky.social explains why calls to restrict speech won’t heal this division — and would actually make matters much worse.
🚩 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.
Chatbots' “hallucinating” is the least of our problems. While critics often cite AI inaccuracies as a fatal flaw, at our #FreeSpeechSummit2025, Tyler Cowen argues this is the most overrated problem in the current discourse.
“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.
If AI can beat one of the world’s top economists at his own game, what does that mean for the rest of us? At the #FreeSpeechSummit2025, Tyler Cowen explains how we can grow with AI.
“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:
Free speech will always be under threat. It is the people's greatest tool and authority's greatest fear. In an interview with @gadsaad.com.web.brid.gy, @jkosseff.bsky.social discusses his new book and why we can never stop defending this freedom, no matter how well--intentioned restrictions seem.

Local elections should be about local government. Some parties what to distract you from what actually matters: who will do the work. Lib Dems win more councillors every year, win more by-elections, and defend more seats - because we actually deliver for people. #votelibdem
Muted cabinet meeting video 😶📹 Narendra Modi speaking, ministers quietly listening — the whole scene looked designed to project a powerful and smartest-in-the-room image 😭 Though honestly, for all we know, he could just be sharing his favourite dhokla recipe 😂

First it was: we support it. Then: we’re not participating. Now: we’re just defending. Australia’s sending military aircraft, personnel and missiles into the Gulf. That’s not staying out of war. That’s how @AlboMP sells war to the Aussie public - one euphemism at a time.
Donald Trump is in his worst position ever on inflation, and it shows. And it’s not just one group saying it, Americans across the board are fed up with the sky-high cost of living. Families are paying more for groceries, gas, and rent, and they know exactly who’s in charge.
Dr Jonathan Reiner: "One other interesting thing I noted was that when the president left Walter Reed, he posted that he had a perfect '6 month physical.' So we're changing from a routine yearly physical to, I guess as a nod to his age, a 6 month cycle for evaluations."
