During @EP_SingleMarket hearing, @ThierryBreton revealed that after sanctioning Sputnik and Russia Today, 30% of Facebook's bandwidth had been freed.
These social media algorithms are actively pushing disinformation and hatred.
We should ban these polarising algorithms.
Kim van Sparrentak (GroenLinks) Thu 23 Feb 2023, 09:05
The normalisation of anti-LGBTI sentiments by right-wing politicians in the political arena needs to be stopped, and we need to ban polarising algorithms that spread online hate.
Kim van Sparrentak (GroenLinks) Thu 23 Feb 2023, 09:05
Hate against us is on the rise, increasingly leading to violence and even murder and suicide.
We need to take this extremely serious and fight the root causes of hate speech.

🎉 WE DID IT!
We beat Uber's aggressive lobby! The European Parliament just adopted our proposal to end fake self-employment and protect people against intrusive algorithms.
This is a huge step for the millions of platform workers in the EU. ✊
Kim van Sparrentak (GroenLinks) Thu 26 Jan 2023, 18:33
This is one of the many examples of the company's aggressive lobbying.
Whether millions of platform workers will have a right to a minimum wage, sick pay and protection against black box algorithms, depends on next week's vote.

This seemingly independent piece is written by Benoit Le Bre, partner of Gide Loyrette Nouel Law Firm, representing *drumroll* Uber. 🥁
Their affiliation with Uber is not mentioned anywhere in the article.

The far right is moving from their online rabbit holes to the offline world, driven by disinformation and amplified by social media algorithms.
The EU cannot be naive in current geopolitics.
Defend our democracy with:
- Strong rules on disinformation
- Ban polarising algorithms

We need to talk about #TikTok.
The Chinese version is very different than the one in the West. We are highly concerned about the addictive algorithms of Tiktok. Profiling our children. Risking to undermine our society in the long run.

@DefendDemocracy I count upon the @EU_Commisison to go further and present strict rules against disinformation and polarising recommender algorithms in the EU’s upcoming #DefenceOfDemocracy package. 3/

@DefendDemocracy A global fascism/far right is on the rise, facilitated by profit-driven tech companies that systematically continue to recommend and amplify disinformation. The EU cannot afford to be naive in the current geopolitical situation. 2/

Great news for the millions of platform workers in the EU! Despite aggressive lobbying from Uber, the EMPL committee has agreed its position on a directive to end fake self-employment and black box algorithms. If adopted, they will finally have the same rights as other employees!
Kim van Sparrentak (GroenLinks) Thu 8 Dec 2022, 16:49
Monday will be a decisive day for the rights of the millions of platform workers in Europe. In order to make sure that the platform workers win against Uber's multimillion lobby machine, we need your help: act.greens-efa.eu/uber-exploits?…

And as if this is not bad enough already, they are constantly monitored and managed by black box algorithms. They don’t know why they get certain tasks or prices and are sometimes even fired without any explanation.
Kim van Sparrentak (GroenLinks) Thu 8 Dec 2022, 16:49
Uber's business model is based on the exploitation of workers. Claiming that their drivers and riders are self-employed – which they are clearly not – Uber circumvents minimum wage and social protection laws. As a result, workers are underpaid and have no social protection.
Kim van Sparrentak (GroenLinks) Fri 2 Dec 2022, 17:58
What must we do in the EU?
➡️Ban interaction-based recommender algorithms that amplify hate and disinformation
➡️Free psychological and legal aid for victims of online hate speech
➡️Strong rules to stop the viral spread of disinformation online 9/

Antidemocratic groups love to spread fear mongering messages about evil powerful women. Here the far right, pro-Russian groups and the platforms become a toxic cocktail leading to waves of hate on social media. 8/

Director of @DefendDemocracy @StollmeyerEU: the algorithms of tech platforms, Russian intervention and the far right have one thing in common: they flourish on polarisation. Without a common truth, we cannot have effective policies. We need to defend democracy. 7/

Still in our online public space, online platforms’ profit-driven algorithms continue to amplify online hate and disinformation, because that’s what people click on most.
Both the far right and pro-Russian actors have mastered the art of using these algorithms against us. 4/

51% of women hesitate to express their opinion online due to fear of online hate.
Increasingly women do not want to enter politics.
This strikes the heart of our democracy. We can only speak of democracy if everyone can participate safely, freely and equally. 3/

Women do not only experience more hate and violence offline, but also online.
This affects individuals, but also our freedom of expression.
It's time to build a feminist internet, by banning toxic algorithms and including online harassment in gender-based violence legislation.

Kim van Sparrentak (GroenLinks) Thu 20 Oct 2022, 17:58
Online violence leads to offline violence.
As politicians we have the moral duty to take action on this issue. By banning polarising algorithms, and equally important, by collectively standing up to the hatred against LGBTIQ+ people that is spewed in the political arena.
Kim van Sparrentak (GroenLinks) Wed 19 Oct 2022, 12:15
Ridiculous that Facebook earned 100K with a pro-Russian disinformation operation, promoted with paid advertising and amplified by interaction-based algorithms.
Tech companies make it too easy to manipulate, polarise, and threaten our democracies. @EU_Commission, intervene! 👇

Our proposed fundamental changes that didn't get a majority:
❌Turn dangerous personalised algorithms 'off' by default
❌ A total ban on all data collection and microtargeting for ads
❌ A European Platform Supervisor for strong enforcement of the biggest platforms (3/3)
Kim van Sparrentak (GroenLinks) Thu 20 Jan 2022, 11:50
Our wins:
✅ It's no longer up to platforms alone what gets taken offline.
✅Mandatory transparency of how their algorithms work.
✅A ban on endless cookie choices and manipulative designs
✅A ban on collecting data on our political preferences, sexuality or health for ads. (2/3)

We are worried however about algorithms acting as managers. Management should be done by humans, who workers can hold accountable.
Platform companies should abide by the same rules as any other company.

It is good news the @EU_Commission finally proposed new EU law to better prorect platform workers.
We are happy they included our solutions, such as the rebuttable presumption of an employment relationship with the reversal of the burden of proof.
Kim van Sparrentak (GroenLinks) Thu 9 Dec 2021, 14:53
The proposal sets boundaries on algorithmic management by including:
👉 Transparency and consultation of platform workers on the algorithms that manage them.
👉 Prohibition of constant monitoring when endangering physical and mental health.
(4/5)
Kim van Sparrentak (GroenLinks) Thu 9 Dec 2021, 14:52
And the proposal is a major breakthrough on algorithmic management! Something I fought hard for in the Parliament. An important step is taken towards creating a new category of digital labour rights for the 21st century. We must stop the constant surveillance of workers. (3/5)
Agnes Jongerius (PvdA) Wed 8 Dec 2021, 13:54
Platform work must be fair!
We will not allow algorithms to change worker's wages, working conditions or to dismiss workers.
Management must be done by humans, who workers can hold accountable. Platform companies must abide by the same rules as other companies.
S&D Group Tue 7 Dec 2021, 11:33
It's time to change the game of the gig economy by ending this form of modern-day slavery. The solution is simple: platform workers must automatically be considered employees with all applicable rights.

- Rules on fair and transparent algorithms.

@FrancesHaugen Insights:
1⃣ Transparency of recommender algorithms is perfectly feasible. Thus not an unreasonable request for platforms at all.
2⃣ An opt-out option for users is not the magic solution against toxic algorithms. There are safer ways, but we shouldn't let Big Tech decide.

What Haugen taught us? Facebook is aware of the toxicity of its algorithm but refuses to act. This reaffirms: it’s time for strong rules. 🦾🇪🇺
For more accountability, we need to know what goes on online & give users back control.

@EPSocialAffairs ➡️ The algorithms that determine the work and pay of platform workers need to be fairer and more transparant. Information on the influence of data on your work and pay needs to be openly accessible.
