Really pleased to have been able to wokr on the project and see how it's turned out!

If you haven't yet, please ask your library to order a copy

A paperback will be out next year hopefully and far more affordable

A 500K+ follower account being unable to distinguish between craters from Iranian missiles, and clouds in satellite imagery. Says all you need to know about the state of OSINT on this shithole platform.

For hours after the Sydney mall stabbing there was a misinformation competition between those who wanted the attacker to be Muslim or Jewish, he's neither.

An innocent man was falsely identified as the assailant on this platform, with his name, images and online profile widely…

Video game footage is once again going viral online via users seeking engagement during a breaking news event.

This is not footage of Israel's Iron Dome in action against an Iranian retaliatory attack, it's from the video game Arma 3.

Seeing plenty of old videos from the Middle East plus some video game footage going viral tonight, mostly posted by accounts seeking clout and engagement during a major news event by spreading misinformation and fear.

Double-check everything you see online tonight.

Borkarövare have bad haircuts. Otherwise, Ronja Rövardotter on Netflix is great for anyone who loves the Swedish woods or just wants a peek into the glorious nature I have the privilege of calling my home =)

🚨New Publication on Gender & the Far Right

💡Inspired by our work for CREST I continued working on the application of the GLM and added a #genderanalysis during my MLitt dissertation for CSTPV .

This report summarises my findings & sets out implications.🧵

Nouvelle publication (en français!):

If I didn't live in the woods, I'd live in a ski resort...

Last month, Sweden signed arms export deal worth €1 billion w/'partner country in the West' it refused to name. And, due a recently passed law, any journalist who reveals name of the country would be subject to criminal prosecution. How this isn't a bigger scandal is incredible.

Observing the #Eclipse2024 from Las Vegas today was pretty epic. The eclipse-shadows cast through the foliage on the trees outside of the Bellagio Las Vegas was a personal highlight - bur seeing the thing with my own eyes (through protective gear) was an awe inspiring experience!

Been playing with Arc and Vivaldi after a few years on Edge, and they have some interesting takes on things...so I'm wondering - what is actually the best browser for those of us who tend to have about 350 tabs open and do a bit of research and a bit of webdev. Thoughts?

The Muslim community back home in Norway has once again received credible threats online, leading to general armament of the police and other security measures being taken. I hope the community remains safe, and is free to end Ramadan in peace with a good celebration of Eid.

Tanker går til det Muslimske trossamfunnet hjemme i Norge, som nok en gang er utsatt for trussler fra islamofober på nett. Jeg håper på en fredelig slutt på Ramadan og en god feiring av Eid for alle.

Visiting the White House to talk about our work to make the world safer is always a great privilege.

Looking for English to Arabic translators (or recommendations of people to contact), reply here so we can DM. Many thanks!

Dramatic skies in DC tonight.
