IPSEs IN THE LAST 24H
  • Alexey Maslov
    Alexey Maslov “We value the stability of Russia-China relations. The one word I can use to describe our relationship is 'trust.' That's very important because if you look at the cooperation with the Western countries, we don't have, and we have never had, mutual trust. But with China, we have a mutual trust. Our cooperation during the last two years developed very fast. The two countries could deepen cooperation in finance and banking, as well as in sci-tech and investment.” 12 hours ago
  • Cui Heng
    Cui Heng “The world will pay attention to the meeting between the top leaders of the two countries to see how China-Russia relations can be promoted to a new height, as strategic ties between the two major powers will greatly affect the international arena.” 12 hours ago
  • Dmitry Peskov
    Dmitry Peskov “We see an unveiled intervention in the internal affairs of Georgia from the outside. This is an internal matter of Georgia. We do not want to interfere there in any way.” 12 hours ago
  • Charles Michel
    Charles Michel “If they want to join the EU, they have to respect the fundamental principles of the rule of law and the democratic principles.” 13 hours ago
  • Antony Blinken
    Antony Blinken “Under our own ten-year agreement, the United States will support the defence and security across a range of essential capabilities - from its air force to its air defence, from drones to demining. If Russia or anyone else were to attack Ukraine, we will work with Ukraine immediately at the highest levels to coordinate how to help you beat back the threat.” 17 hours ago
  • Aleksey Kushch
    Aleksey Kushch “This is an unexpected, but, unfortunately for Ukraine, a very effective move. Unlike many top Russian officials, Belousov has not been involved in corruption scandals and has a reputation as a workaholic technocrat and a devout Orthodox Christian. Putin wants him to clean the Augean stables of the defence ministry so that military spending spearheads the resurgence of Russia's economy. The effectiveness of Russia's military-industrial complex will be boosted, and instead of being a 'black hole' of budget spendings, the defence ministry may become a driver of economic growth, when war spendings stimulate the growth of Russia's GDP.” 20 hours ago

“There is now overwhelming evidence we are being put at risk when using social media. I'm not willing to expose my customers to this harm, so it's time to take it out of the mix.”

“Over time, I hope that we are seen as a metaverse company and I want to anchor our work and our identity on what we're building towards. We're now looking at and reporting on our business as two different segments, one for our family of apps, and one for our work on future platforms. And as part of this, it is time for us to adopt a new company brand to encompass everything that we do, to reflect who we are and what we hope to build.”

“Good faith criticism helps us get better, but my view is that we are seeing a coordinated effort to selectively use leaked documents to paint a false picture of our company [Facebook]. The reality is that we have an open culture that encourages discussion and research on our work so we can make progress on many complex issues that are not specific to just us.”

“People are now equipped with iPhones and the main source of information in Myanmar is Facebook and Twitter. They are very determined not to give up. And if they don't give up, and if they are so angry to also use violence, then that the violence will create more violence that would lead to a full-blown internal armed conflict.”

“Our continuing investigation revealed that he [Mark Zuckerberg] was personally involved in decisions related to Cambridge Analytica and Facebook's failure to protect user data. This lawsuit is about protecting the data of half of all District residents and tens of millions of people across the country. We've taken our obligation to investigate wrongdoing very seriously - and Facebook should take its responsibility to protect users just as seriously.”

“[Facebook algorithms] prioritise the spread of lies laced with anger and hate over facts. Facebook has become the world's largest distributor of news, yet it is biased against facts, it is biased against journalism … If you have no facts, you can't have truths, you can't have trust. If you don't have any of these, you don't have a democracy.”

“When Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp temporarily went offline this week due to a technical problem, we saw just how dependent we have already become on these services for so many everyday activities. It was a shock to suddenly be without them. The company would probably see this as evidence that our lives are too intertwined with its services for them to ever go away. But, as the company has proven time and time again, our interests and its interests are rarely aligned. We should instead recognise that allowing a rapacious company to design and own critical infrastructure with zero accountability is the worst of all possible options.”

“I'm here today because I believe Facebook's products harm children, stoke division and weaken our democracy. Congressional action is needed. They won't solve this crisis without your help. As long as Facebook is operating in the shadows, hiding its research from public scrutiny, it is unaccountable. Until the incentives change, Facebook will not change. Left alone, Facebook will continue to make choices that go against the common good. Facebook hides behind walls that keep researchers and regulators from understanding the true dynamics of their system.”

“It's almost as if Facebook's monopolistic mission to either own, copy, or destroy any competing platform has incredibly destructive effects on free society and democracy. Remember: WhatsApp wasn't created by Facebook. It was an independent success. FB got scared & bought it.”

“My bet is that someone pushed a button wrong, or a cord got unplugged, which seems very minor but the reality is that we've seen these things before where suddenly something is configured incorrectly and entire swaths of the internet are not available.”

“Frances [Frances Haugen] has shown the world that the company [Facebook] is using Big Tobacco's playbook, cruelly & cravenly seeking to make more money from addictive harms to our children, while suppressing disclosure of what it knew.”

“There were conflicts of interest between what was good for the public and what was good for Facebook. And Facebook over and over again chose to optimize for its own interests like making more money.”

“If China enters first, certainly there is a risk of them obstructing Taiwan. Taiwan joining anything, they oppose. If China can change these, I think changing this system and then entering (the trade pact) is not a bad thing. But the prerequisite is that if this system is not changed, why can they enter CPTPP [Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership]? This is an issue I don't really understand. Look at their information - nothing can enter. Facebook can't enter, Google can't enter... At the very least after we [Taiwan] submitted the written application, we've not heard that any member opposes, not like after China applied, when some countries brought it up. I think if the political obstacles can be reduced as much as possible, I don't believe talks will go on for decades.”

“The paper [Wall Street Journal] had not presented the whole picture on the most difficult issues we grapple with as a company - from content moderation and vaccine misinformation, to algorithmic distribution and the well-being of teens. The reporting was based on selective quotes from internal reports designed to hold up a mirror to ourselves and ask the difficult questions about how people interact at scale with social media. These are serious and complex issues and it is absolutely legitimate for us to be held to account for how we deal with them. [But] at the heart of this series is an allegation that is just plain false: that Facebook conducts research and then systematically and willfully ignores it if the findings are inconvenient for the company. Facebook understands the significant responsibility that comes with operating a global platform. We take it seriously, and we don't shy away from scrutiny and criticism. I wish there were easy answers to these issues, and that choices we might make wouldn't come with difficult trade-offs … [but] that is not the world we live in.”

“While it is accepted that many devices including smart phones can record third party individuals, it is generally the case that the camera or the phone is visible as the device by which recording is happening, thereby putting those captured in the recordings on notice. With the glasses, there is a very small indicator light that comes on when recording is occurring. It has not been demonstrated to the DPC and Garante [Italian Data Protection Regulator] that comprehensive testing in the field was done by Facebook or Ray-Ban to ensure the indicator LED light is an effective means of giving notice.”

“There's definitely a route on ads, which is Facebook's core business model, that over the long term I think in some form or another will be part of the business model for WhatsApp.”

“To Bolsonaro, it is essential to preserve the immense social capital that these accounts have accumulated in recent years. There is a high expectation about what will happen to his accounts since he has made many posts that go against Facebook's rules.”

“You failed to meaningfully change after your platform has played a role in fomenting insurrection and abetting the spread of the virus and trampling American civil liberties. Your business model itself has become the problem and the time for self-regulation is over. It's time we legislate to hold you accountable.”
