On X[edit]
You may be undervaluing how devious it can be. Indulge me.
You can ensure, for example; that ideological critics see 100%. They then ridicule the idea of censorship because they do in fact see all tweets!
When I pushed âAudienceCaptureâ I erred. âFeedbackCaptureâ is the issue.
@MaajidNawaz @elonmusk
I never see Maajids tweets unless I look for them. The censorship has been in your face obvious!
Audience Capture is merely a specific case of the more general concept of Feedback Capture. A platform can confuse & gaslight a target. Or a dedicated harassment community can repeatedly paint a target on an individual. Or you can hire a farm of bots to confuse a target/audience.
Conversely, Feedback Capture works to target an audience of an individual who sees the same FUD vocabulary used repeatedly using the previously strategies. The point is that you use black box algos, anonymous accounts, perseveration, FUD, to manipulate BOTH individual & audience.
This is basically the idea of Iago from Othello. When I have warned you always to âlook for Iagoâ, the underlying concept is Feedback Capture. Othello actually becomes a different human via alienation of affections. Is Othello a good person? Hard to say. He is Iago-programmed.
Lastly this can easily be done in a surgical/bespoke fashion. Friends no longer know when a friend is in trouble. Or 10,000 accounts may find the exact same obvious misinterpretation. With Feedback capture you never know what is happening. Itâs one of the biggest threats today.
Why? Because targeted manipulated feedback creates its own reality. It may start off as bullshit, but it becomes real via Kayfabrication. Oddly I covered this years ago! Just didnât see it as a big threat so didnât break it out.
A huge blunder on my part: https://edge.org/response-detail/11783
