Alberto Quian🚀 Fresh off the press! I’ve just received the printed edition of 'Disinformation and Risk Society. What is at Stake with the Proliferation of Information Disorders', a collective effort to dissect the complexities of today’s information landscape. And guess what? The Fediverse takes center stage in my contribution! <br> <br> In my chapter, 'Fediverse: Decentralised and Interoperable Networks in Times of Disinformation', I explore how this decentralized, community-driven ecosystem is reshaping the digital public sphere. While centralized platforms struggle with disinformation and algorithmic manipulation, the Fediverse offers a radical alternative—one built on transparency, user autonomy, and federation protocols like ActivityPub.<br> <br> 🔍 Key topics I explore:<br> <br> 🔹 The roots and evolution of decentralized online social networks (DOSNs).<br> 🔹 The Musk Effect—how Elon Musk’s Twitter takeover fueled a migration wave to Mastodon.<br> 🔹 The promise (and challenges) of community-driven moderation.<br> 🔹 How the Fediverse can empower ethical, independent journalism in an era of algorithmic chaos.<br> <br> This book is part of the IBERIFIER project, funded by the European Commission, and brings together top researchers tackling disinformation from multiple angles.<br> <br> A huge thanks to the editors and fellow contributors for making this project a reality!<br> <br> 🔗 Check it out here: <a href="https://lnkd.in/dbexg4-M" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://lnkd.in/dbexg4-M</a><br> <br> 🎥 Note: The video I’m sharing was generated with AI.<br> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Book?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Book</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Fediverse?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fediverse</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Decentralization?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Decentralization</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Disinformation?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Disinformation</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/IBERIFIER?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#IBERIFIER</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/DigitalMedia?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DigitalMedia</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Journalism?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Journalism</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Media?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Media</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Mastodon?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Mastodon</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/SocialNetworks?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SocialNetworks</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/EthicalTech?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#EthicalTech</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/PublicSphere?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PublicSphere</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/MuskEffect?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MuskEffect</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/EuropeanCommission?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#EuropeanCommission</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/DOSNs?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DOSNs</a>
