In an age of deepfakes and disinformation, more than 2,500 activists, policymakers, and technologists gathered in London last week at Mozilla’s MozFest to work on creating a better, healthier, and more humane internet.

PKPR secured an appearance on CNN for Mozilla Fellow Camille François to discuss how she is using machine learning and data analysis to detect foreign interference in the 2020 U.S. election. Other coverage highlights included Quartz (”Did YouTube’s Algorithm Help China’s Anti-Hong Kong Propaganda Go Viral?”), PCMag (”Does YouTube’s Algorithm Lead to Radicalization”), and TechRadar (”Can Facebook ever be kept safe without hurting staff?”).
