“Trust us bro.” At #FreeSpeechSummit2025, @brooksben.bsky.social warned that the public AI companies and governments are asking the public to trust systems they cannot meaningfully inspect or scrutinize.
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.

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.
“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.
DeepSeek exported censorship. Open source developers reversed it in 48 hours. At the #FreeSpeechSummit2025, @brooksben.bsky.social explained how developers modified DeepSeek’s open-source model to address censorship of responses about Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Xi Jinping.
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.
In 2021, Congress introduced a bill that would have exempted “health misinformation” from Section 230 protection — defined by the HHS Secretary. But would those who supported that law at the time still be okay with handing that power to an unelected bureaucrat today?

REPORTER: Attacking power plants and bridges violates Geneva Convention. Isn’t that a war crime? TRUMP: I hope I don’t have to do it… they won’t have nuclear weapons. REPORTER: That didn’t answer my question. TRUMP: You are fake news. 25th NOW
In 2022 this propagandist claimed that Russia would conquer Ukraine within the first week of the invasion. She also claimed then that Russia needs two days to conquer Ukraine. I think Simonyan would sooner visit the Hague than Kyiv.

Real representation means actually showing up. That's why our first 100 days include at least four town halls, visits to every county, and leadership councils made up of real people from across NJ-7. Because good policy comes from listening to the people living the experience.
⛔ #BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Fox News just admitted that inflation is getting way worse under #DonaldTrümp 's leadership. It must be really bad if even Fox is admitting this.

“Pro-EU” Gordana Čomić still believes that the 2008 decision to hand over NIS to the Kremlin was a “good” one. She also maintains that Serbia’s 2006 Constitution “should not be changed.” Today, we have similar figures who present themselves to the Serbian public as so-called “pro-EU opposition.” 👇
