11/11/22 Branko Marcetic on the DHS’s Role in Online Censorship
Scott is joined by Branko Marcetic of Jacobin to discuss the recent revelations that the Department of Homeland Security has been guiding tech platforms on what they should censor. They observe some specific cases where platforms like Facebook and Google changed rules and suppressed stories to help prop up the U.S. government’s narratives, even when they proved false. Scott and Marcetic also talk about the potential for cross-idealogical coalitions to fight back against these blatant and dangerous government interventions in the information space.
Discussed on the show:
- “The Quiet Merger Between Online Platforms and the National Security State Continues” (Jacobin)
- “Leaked Documents Outline DHS’s Plans to Police Disinformation” (The Intercept)
- Global Guerillas
