UW study reveals how social media influencers profit from spreading misinformation

According to a recent Pew Research Center report, nearly half of adults in the U.S. use Instagram. The social media platform is also popular with influencers who amass a large online following around a particular interest, like health and wellness. They can then leverage that popularity to profit from the sale of products and services they promote through their accounts.  But some influencers on Instagram are also profiting from the spread of misinformation, according to a new study from researchers at the University of Washington. The study looked at three Instagram influencers who spread vaccine misinformation with messaging that appealed to users with varying interests, from fashion to homeschooling. Those influencers posted content that linked to products such as essential oils they falsely claimed would cure colds, viruses and other ailments. Rachel Moran is the lead author of the study and a senior research scientist at the Center for an Informed Public at the University of Washington. She joins us to share her findings.

Minneapolis has a new community commission on police oversight. Fifteen people — one from each ward and two selected by Mayor Jacob Frey — will serve on a rotating basis to review allegations of police misconduct. The new appointees were approved last week. The commission replaces the city's long-criticized police civilian review process. So there are lots of eyes on this new board. Big expectations to live up to. And a good number of skeptics. So what makes this board different from any that came before it? MPR News host Cathy Wurzer talked with Rachel Moran, an associate professor at the University of St. Thomas School of Law.

The Convoys Are Coming [No. 094]

It’s been a minute and I wanted to come back with something light-hearted and fun. So, today, we’re going to talk about the Canadian conspiracist truck convoy, the impending U.S. version of this thing (that I hope I’m wrong about!), and how social media and influencers are helping drive it. So, just a refresher: the Canadian “Freedom Convoy” consists of truckers and various support agents using their big rigs and pickups to physically block off the Ottawa capitol and key border crossings with the U.S. And I mean, you know that anytime the word “freedom” is attached to an event or “movement,” white grievances are about to get AIRED THE F**K OUT.The “Freedom Convoy” is ostensibly protesting a new piece of Canadian legislation that requires unvaccinated Canadian truckers to isolate for 2 weeks upon returning from the U.S. Unvaccinated foreign truckers aren’t allowed in the country. There sure has been a lot of attention given to these anti-vax protesters while *checks notes* 90% of Canadian truck drivers are vaccinated.To nobody’s surprise, the movement’s leaders and organizers are some combination of the following list: racists, xenophobes, conspiricists, QAnon believers, and more. They’re anti-labor and boyyyyy do they not believe in science. Or the government, obviously. And look: there may be some convoy sympathizers who have a simple, narrow desire to protest vaccine mandates—a position I largely disagree with but one that people can certainly voice their opposition to! But it’s pretty very clear that this movement was built opportunistically by its leaders, laundering far-right ideology into public debate about mandates. This is the right on-ramping sympathizers and adjacents to a bigger platform.This truck blockade strategy is likely to be employed in the U.S. in the near future. At what scale or frequency remains to be seen. How DHS and other authorities preemptively plan for them will be interesting. But you know an American version has the potential to be even more stupid, more media-able and potentially dangerous than the Canadian variety. In practice, U.S convoys will look like a Trump 2024 x Let’s Go Brandon/Stop The Steal x QAnon x Conspirituality (see below) collaboration. The merch will absolutely suck. And while the venn diagram for those four groups isn’t a perfect concentric circle, there’s enough overlap and the possibility that these convoys make the circles tighter. Fun!Again, I hope I’m wrong. I hope none of this comes to fruition. Given my personal and professional interests, I’m looking at two things, specifically: how social media/platforms serve as key organizing spaces. And influencers. Not just far-right influencers who you’d obviously expect. I’m talking—takes deep breath, exhales—health and wellness influencers.Turns out, a lot of them are very vocally supporting the convoy on social media. From Rolling Stone:Influencers publicly supporting the convoy, which started in protest against trucker vaccine mandates and has left the country’s capitol city of Ottawa immobilized for the past 11 days, is the natural culmination of the wellness community’s increasing convergence with anti-vaccine or Covid-denying conspiracy theories, all in the name of supporting personal freedom and bodily autonomy. Since the start of the pandemic, there has been a gradual yet palpable shift in the wellness community toward conspirituality, a portmanteau of “conspiracy theories” and “spirituality” constituting a mélange of woo mysticism and distrust toward the mainstream medical establishment, with a healthy dose of libertarianism thrown in for good measure. This strain has infiltrated all corners of the wellness ecosystem, from natural childbirth influencers to yoga teachers on Instagram.Back to these protests being literal vehicles for far-right ideology. In the U.S., you get the sense that the right is looking for a January 6, 2.0, the next wave of “action” and participation for a grieved movement, whether people are more “yes, let’s do an insurrection” or more “well, you know, they do make some interesting points and also I’m against the government.” I hope to god a convoy—or whatever happens next—has less violence and vitriol, and that they don’t physically storm into federal or state buildings again, but that’s what these angry, privileged people love to do. With guns. Who knows if we’ll see one, big, massive convoy in LA or NYC or Dallas, or if this will be an aggregate thing with convoys all over.Organizers in Canada have been painstakingly trying to frame the convoys as non-partisan and about peaceful action and, of course, freedom. They’re working on better PR after January 6th. They’ve taken learnings and applied them. That seems to be working to some degree in Canada and you can expect U.S. organizers to try to frame their convoys similarly.It’s a “we the people versus the elites” kind of thing rather than a “we want to arrest members of the government” or “COVID was purposefully released from a Chinese lab reduce the population of white people” thing, even though that’s what several of the Canadian movement’s leaders are perpetuating.And this is why white health and wellness influencers are so important here. They have massive, built-in, wildly loyal audiences that are willing to trust their every word. From the aforementioned Rolling Stone article, here’s Rachel Moran, a post-doctoral fellow at the Center for an Informed Public, a research institute at the University of Washington that looks at mis- and disinformation:Those kinds of accounts are the most nefarious in a way. They’re really good at building trust with people, especially these glamorous white women who fit what we deem to be attractive. Maybe you trust their advice about what workout gear you’re gonna wear, and you build this parasocial relationship with them, and then they’re suddenly sharing this information about vaccine misinformation. And you’re more inclined to believe it because you have trust in them.So, as these stupid-but-very-real convoys potentially start to hit stateside, let’s see what kind of new (white) voices and new (also very white) audiences start yelling or tooting horns as they try to play prosecuted martyrs in a system literally designed and governed for them.For more on the topic, check out this piece about the wellness-to-white supremacy pipeline.Be back soon, maybe with something actually more light-hearted. But also maybe with thoughts about these dumb convoys. (I hope I’m wrong about it all.) Get full access to Greg's Newsletter at greg.substack.com/subscribe

What Is the Whorearchy and Why It's Wrong (Sex workers are stronger when we're united.)

"The whorearchy is the hierarchal system by which sex workers too often order themselves from “elite” to “inferior.” The woman who walks the streets is always at the bottom of this hierarchy. Who's on top, though, is contested. White, “high-class” escorts like myself often see ourselves at the apex of this hierarchy. But wait, it's the sugar babies, who have relationships with their sugar daddies and don't charge an hourly rate — they're at the top of the heap. Hold up — phone-sex operators don't even have to have sex to make money, so they're the “best.” But no, cam girls don't meet up with their clients either but earn even more money than phone-sex operators — so they're at the head of the pack. “The whorearchy is arranged according to intimacy of contact with clients and police,” writes Belle Knox, a porn star and sex-work advocate, in Jezebel. “The closer to both you are, the closer you are to the bottom.” This is why the streetwalker is always on the lower rungs of this hierarchy and sex workers like cam girls and phone-sex operators often see themselves as being at the top. (Phone sex and cam work are legal and don't require physical contact with the client.) However, I've met quite a few dominatrixes who believe they're at the pinnacle of this pyramid. Instead of pleasing men, they torture and humiliate them, and still earn a lot of money for the service. They're “top dog.” So you can see why this is a problem. The whorearchy is entirely arbitrary. Maggie McNeill, an escort, author, and sex-work advocate, jokes that while all sex workers agree that the whorearchy exists, “nobody agrees on anything about that system.” Besides, this hierarchical way of viewing sex work presumes that a sex worker's job is fixed. A stripper never does escort work and a streetwalker never works for an agency. his simply is not the case. Rachel Moran, the author of Paid For, a memoir about her time working as a prostitute in Dublin, Ireland, explains how she witnessed many women occupy multiple sectors of the sex industry simultaneously. Moran did this herself. She worked for an online escort agency while also doing street work and describes how the men who slept with her through the agency “were paying me several times more than I'd been paid for the same service the day before” (while streetwalking). In Moran's opinion, the “high-class” escort is nothing more than an image. She has seen brothel owners repackage their businesses as “high-class” agencies to cater to a wealthier clientele. But that's all it is: packaging. “Many like to assume that when they call an escort agency, a higher class of vagina will arrive at their door and, as an afterthought, that there'll be a higher class of woman attached to it.” But as Moran's experience shows, the difference between high-class escorts and streetwalkers is often a question of semantics." --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/antonio-myers4/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/antonio-myers4/support

Noor was initially sentenced to 12.5 years for the 2017 shooting of Justine Ruszczyk Damond, who he shot and killed while responding to her 911 call. His sentence was reduced to four years and nine months.+--+Feven Gerezgiher reports:On Thursday a judge re-sentenced former Minneapolis police officer Mohamed Noor to four years and nine months in prison. Noor was initially sentenced to 12.5 years for the 2017 shooting of Justine Ruszczyk Damond, who he shot and killed while responding to her 911 call.In September, the Minnesota Supreme Court threw out Noor's murder conviction, prompting a need to re-sentence him for the lesser charge of second-degree manslaughter.University of Saint Thomas law professor Rachel Moran said Judge Kathryn Quaintance gave Noor the highest possible sentence for the charge.“I think she's legitimately concerned about what he did that night. He did take someone's life, even if not intentionally,” Moran said. While the Minnesota Supreme Court decision means Derek Chauvin will likely have his third degree murder charge dropped, Moran said his sentencing will not be impacted.“He was convicted of a more serious offense, which is second degree murder. And in Minnesota, you only get sentenced on the most serious offense,” Moran explained. “So he's serving 22 and a half years for second degree murder. The fact that he can get his third degree murder conviction vacated doesn't have any practical effect on that 22 and a half year sentence.”As a former public defender, however, Moran has a low view overall of the criminal system's ability to bring justice through prosecution.“I don't think it necessarily brings safety to the community. I'm not saying it's a bad thing to criminally prosecute officers at all, but the idea that that's what will now hold police accountable for all misconduct and protect communities that have been the targets of police misconduct… I don't think a couple of criminal prosecutions are going to do the trick,” she said.Based on time already served, Moran says Noor could be released on parole next summer.

Here's How Anti-Vaxxers Are Spreading Misinformation Despite Your Best Moderation Efforts

What moderation tactics have you used or seen as a mechanism to curtail the spread of misinformation in communities and on social media platforms? Word detection, link blocking, and digital stickers promoting legitimate information sources may immediately come to mind. But what would happen if you ran your moderation tools against URLs shared in link-in-bio services used in your community? Or what if you learned that folks on your platform were using specific codewords to circumvent word detection? Or posting screenshots of misinformation rather than using plain-text? People are getting creative with how they share all types of information online, misinformation included. Are our moderation strategies keeping up? In this discussion, Patrick chats with Joseph Schafer, an undergraduate student of Computer Science and Ethics at the University of Washington and Rachel Moran, a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Washington's Center for an Informed Public. They discuss their research and how anti-vaccine advocates are circumventing content moderation efforts on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and large social networks. Some of their findings might surprise you! For example, specific folk theories have emerged that define how some believe social platforms and algorithms work to moderate their content and conversations. And whether these theories are true or not, the strategies forming around them do seem to help people keep questionable content up long enough for researchers to come across it. So, where do we start? How can we detect misinformation if people are using codewords like pizza or Moana to get around our tools and teams? There may not be precise solutions here just yet, but Rachel and Joseph both offer ideas to help us down the right path, which starts with deciding that the engagement that brews around misinformation is not safe for the long-term health of your community.

Big Quotes Using lexical variation to circumvent moderation filters (2:45): “They found this big group of people who were using ‘dancing' or other kinds of verbs to mean getting the vaccine. Complete replacement of the word [vaccine]. You wouldn't know that that meant vaccination unless you were a member of that community and had the institutional knowledge that comes with being a member. We see [lexical variation] on a spectrum.” –@rachelemoran Emojis, code words, and symbols can form the insider language of a community (3:08): “We see ‘v@ccine' where the A is an @ sign or people using the vaccine emoji rather than using the word at all. They believe that if they put that instead of spelling out vaccine, … they'll avoid being caught up in the algorithmic moderation that happens on platforms.” –@rachelemoran Misinformation finds a hiding place in link-in-bios (5:05): “There's a variety of ways that you can … get around [link blocks]. One might be, for example, using a screenshot of an article or something that is vaccine misinformation, rather than putting in the text of the misinformation directly. … There's also various websites like URL shorteners or URL compilers, or even just a Word document … that is filled with links to sites that maybe these major platforms are moderating and blocking.” –@joey__schafer Using vaccination promotion tools to promote anti-vaccine content (10:56): “[On Instagram stories, you can use] that little sticker that says, ‘Let's get vaccinated.' Then Instagram collates those of your friends that have [used that] sticker … and it goes at the top of your [stories section]. … [We're seeing people] put a sticker over the top of that sticker or they are like, ‘Let's not get vaccinated.'” –@rachelemoran The engagement surrounding misinformation isn't good for the long-term health of your community or your business (32:06): “Part of the problem with misinformation is that it's really engaging. When you're making money off of engagement, there's only so far you're going to go to take down misinformation without going too far into your bottom line. … I feel like there is a tide-turning moment happening where the bigger platforms are realizing that misinformation is a vulnerability that degrades the product that can have economic disadvantages.” –@rachelemoran About Joseph Schafer and Rachel Moran Joseph Schafer is a fourth-year undergraduate student at the University of Washington, studying Computer Science and Ethics. He has also worked as a research assistant for the university's Center for an Informed Public since January of 2020, studying various forms of online misinformation and disinformation.

Social media, message apps and other digital communications technologies restructure the ways in which information flows, and thus how humans interact with one another, how they make sense of the world and how they come to consensus on how to deal with problems. Now, more than a dozen researchers at multiple universities who study technology, behavior and complex systems believe questions about the impact of communications technology on collective behavior should be regarded as a “crisis discipline,” noting that “the vulnerability of these systems to misinformation and disinformation poses a dire threat to health, peace, global climate and more.” In a new paper published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, they call on researchers and social media executives to take a Hippocratic oath and pledge first to do no harm to humanity.

Plan International UK suggests that 63% of women in Britain feel unsafe walking alone in the dark. It’s an innate fear, one that’s reinforced in childhood. Stranger danger dictates that all strangers are dangerous, and that you should never interact with strangers in the street, a child should never accept sweets off of a stranger and you should never walk off or get into a car with a stranger. The occurrence of the Moors Murders, murders committed by Levi Bellfield and the abduction and murder of Sarah Payne in 2000, has made the idea of stranger danger even more significant.

This English collective says Brexit unfairly targets sex workers for deportation

After the United Kingdom voted to leave the European Union in 2016, large industries have struggled to handle the ramifications of the upcoming Brexit. One affected industry that does not get much coverage is prostitution.Laura Watson is the spokesperson for the English Collective of Prostitutes in London. She spoke with The World's Carol Hills about what Brexit has meant for the numerous foreign prostitutes residing in the UK and what her organization is doing to help foreign sex workers who are being unfairly threatened and deported from around the country. Laura Watson: We are a sex worker organization based here in the UK, but we have an international network, including a sister organization in San Francisco. We also campaign for alternatives to prostitution, so that nobody is forced into it if they don't want to be. We campaign for decriminalization and the removal of the prostitution laws, so that sex workers can work together for safety, which we currently cannot do. Police are going around very regularly threatening women with arrest for prostitution for just working together with a friend. Women are having to move around a lot more and are running from the police. Therefore, it's very hard to establish basic safety, such as CCTV. It's a pretty scary time to be working.Carol Hills: Is there a way to put simply what rights sex workers in Britain have, whether British or non-British?Sex workers have the rights that other people have. For example, you don't have to let the police in if they don't have a warrant and you don't have to give the police a statement. It's legal to work as a sex worker, but it's illegal to work with somebody else and it's illegal to loiter and solicit on the street. To be working legally, you can work from premises, but you have to be completely on your own. Women don't want to work in that way. It's a very scary way to work. You're completely isolated.Related: After seven years in the Dublin sex trade, Rachel Moran says prostitution is always abuse.Your group recently put out a brief very memorably called "Sex workers are getting screwed by Brexit." How?We had a lot of women coming to us from Europe, mostly from Eastern Europe. In fact, mostly Romanian women who were working in the UK consensually and independently and wanted to keep on working but were being harassed by the police constantly for arrest and deportation.So is your sense that police in the UK are using pro-Brexit sentiment and the feelings around those who support Brexit to crack down on non-British prostitutes, in this case Romanian, as just an extension of anti-foreigner feeling?It certainly feels like that way to us and we do have some evidence that suggests that. We saw a number of women coming to us with cases including threats of deportation and racist abuse from police and from immigration officers.Related: A Dutch brothel where women work for themselves.Have you been able to prevent any of the women you represent from getting deported?Yes, we have, and many women did appeal their deportation orders because they couldn't go home or didn't want to go home and this was their home. We did appeal many of those specifically on the grounds that women were exercising their treaty rights in other ways, like that they were students or working in another job and that's how women have won the right to stay here. We have had some success and we hope that this dossier gets the message out there and leads to more success in stopping deportations.This interview has been edited and condensed for clarity.

In this episode, Rachel Moran, Assistant Professor of Law at the University of St. Thomas School of Law, discusses her article "Police Privacy," which will be published in the UC Irvine Law Review. Moran observes that in many states, including California and New York, records of police misconduct are not subject to records requests, or access is very limited. Access to these records is essential to identifying problem officers and bringing civil rights actions, but police unions have successfully argues that access would violate the privacy rights of police officers. Moran asks whether and when records requests implicate legitimate privacy interests, and concludes that most records should be released. Moran is on Twitter at @rachelmoran82.

This time On the Road at the 2016 ABA Annual Meeting, host Joe Patrice talks with Rachel Moran, Dean Emerita and Michael J. Connell Distinguished Professor of Law, and Nicole Austin-Hillery, Director and Counsel of The Brennan Center’s Washington, D.C. office, about the current state of the Supreme Court. Rachel reviews the gap left by Justice Scalia’s passing and states that she’s not sure if there is a clear heir to his seat but there are several justices who are aligned with him philosophically and jurisprudentially. Nicole notes that there seems to be a “lightness” to the current court without Scalia and that the justices appear to now share more of the decision making and influence in terms of the cases. The persistence of this climate, Nicole continues, really depends on who fills the vacant seat since the justices’ personalities have a huge bearing on the Court’s tenor and operation. Both guests contemplate Chief Judge Merrick Garland’s presumptive confirmation to the Supreme Court and the potential larger implications of Justice Sotomayor’s written dissent in the Utah v. Strieff case. They close the interview with a discussion of Justice Kennedy’s recent, uncharacteristic vote on affirmative action and upcoming court cases that attorneys should be on the lookout for. Rachel F. Moran is Dean Emerita and Michael J. Connell Distinguished Professor of Law at UCLA School of Law. She received her A.B. in psychology with honors and with distinction from Stanford University and her J.D. from Yale Law School. Following law school, she clerked for Chief Judge Wilfred Feinberg of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit and worked for the San Francisco firm of Heller Ehrman White & McAuliffe. Prior to her appointment at UCLA, Professor Moran was the Robert D. and Leslie-Kay Raven Professor of Law at UC Berkeley School of Law. Nicole Austin-Hillery is the first director and counsel of The Brennan Center’s Washington, D.C. office and serves as the organization’s chief liaison to Congress and the Administration. She practiced with the law firm of Mehri & Skalet, PLLC as part of the firm's civil rights employment class action practice and as the George N. Lindsay Civil Rights Law Fellow at the national office of the Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights Under Law in Washington, D.C. Nicole is a graduate of the Howard University School of Law and Carnegie Mellon University.
