| Facebook says it will put groups on probation for violating its content rules Posted: 07 Nov 2020 12:37 PM PST  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge In yet another attempt to slow the spread of misinformation on its platform, Facebook plans to put groups on its platform with too many posts that violate its content rules on a kind of probation, the company said. First reported by The Washington Post, Facebook will restrict any groups— both public and private ones— with multiple posts violating its community standards. Moderators for the groups will have to approve any posts manually for 60 days, and there's no appeal available for groups on probationary status. "We are temporarily requiring admins and moderators of some political and social groups in the US to approve all posts, if their group has a number of Community Standards violations from members," Facebook spokesperson Leonard... |
| Trump will lose his Twitter ‘public interest’ protections in January Posted: 07 Nov 2020 11:57 AM PST  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge President Donald Trump will lose Twitter privileges he enjoys as a world leader when President-Elect Joe Biden takes office on January 20th, 2021. Twitter confirmed that Trump's @realDonaldTrump account will be subject to the same rules as any other user — including bans on inciting violence and posting false information about voting or the coronavirus pandemic. Twitter applies special policies to world leaders and some other officials, leaving rule-breaking content online if there's "a clear public interest value to keeping the tweet on the service." The public interest policy was formalized in 2019, codifying a rule that had been informally enforced for some time. "Twitter's approach to world leaders, candidates, and public officials... |
| Netflix is testing a linear channel in France that should help with decision fatigue Posted: 07 Nov 2020 10:52 AM PST  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Netflix is testing a programmed linear content channel in France, Variety reported. The channel, called Netflix Direct, will be available to Netflix streaming subscribers and will provide content from its existing streaming library in a linear format, much like cable and broadcast TV stations do. "Maybe you're not in the mood to decide, or you're new and finding your way around, or you just want to be surprised by something new and different," Netflix said in a statement announcing the new service. It chose France for the launch of Netflix Direct because traditional TV is "hugely popular" there, and people "just want a 'lean back' experience where they don't have to choose shows," the company said. Netflix Direct rolled out in some... |
| BioWare is working on a new Mass Effect game Posted: 07 Nov 2020 08:41 AM PST  Image: BioWare Following the announcement of a remaster of the original trilogy coming next year, BioWare announced that a brand new Mass Effect game is currently in development, in a surprise announcement for N7 day. Not much is known about the next installment in BioWare's epic space opera, but the studio says a team of veterans at the company is working on it. Do not expect the game to come out anytime soon as BioWare general manager Casey Hudson noted in a blog post that the game is in "early stages" of development and the studio cannot share any additional details at this time. With the announcement of Mass Effect: Legendary Edition and a new game confirmed to be in development, this is a nice win for fans of the series. Many wondered what would... |
| President Trump is defeated: the timeline is restored Posted: 07 Nov 2020 08:28 AM PST  Photo by Saul Loeb / AFP via Getty Images After years of chaos, extremism, and death, Americans have chosen to remove President Donald Trump from office. Despite the president's attempt to sow discord in the late hours of the election, Joe Biden will replace him. Four years ago, Trump's win rearranged reality and hijacked our timeline, setting us on a darker path. He was extreme even as a candidate: denying science, praising dictators, promising to torture his enemies, and making politics more vulgar with every tweet. Millions of people around the world were shocked and alarmed on Election Day in 2016, but even the alarmists could not have predicted that the president-elect would someday be meaningfully responsible for the death of hundreds of thousands of American lives and the... |
| Mass Effect Legendary Edition is a remaster of the original trilogy coming to PC and consoles Posted: 07 Nov 2020 08:02 AM PST  Image: BioWare The original Mass Effect trilogy is getting a 4K remaster and its coming to PC, PS4, and Xbox One in 2021. The game will also have enhancements for the PS5 and Xbox Series X. During N7 day celebration, BioWare announced Mass Effect Legendary Edition a compilation of the first three installments in the studio's action RPG series, which released between 2007 and 2012. Mass Effect Legendary Edition will also include all the single-player DLC plus additional in-game content such as weapons and armor. BioWare also confirmed that the compilation will be optimized for 4K Ultra HD visuals. It is important to note, however, that this is not a full remake but enhanced versions of the first three Mass Effect games with BioWare's focus on improving... |
| Twitter flags President Trump’s tweets about ballot-counting Posted: 07 Nov 2020 07:19 AM PST  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Twitter flagged four tweets from President Trump on Saturday morning for making "potentially misleading claims about an election," a company spokesperson said, continuing its attempts to try to rein in misinformation on its platform. The president tweeted, without evidence, that "tens of thousands of votes were illegally received after 8 P.M. on Tuesday, Election Day, totally and easily changing the results in Pennsylvania and certain other razor thin states." He claimed thousands of votes were "illegally not allowed to be OBSERVED," and said "bad things took place," during a time when "LEGAL TRANSPARENCY was viciously & crudely not allowed." The platform labeled a fifth tweet where the president claimed he had won the election "by a... |
| A COVID tracing app misses the mark Posted: 07 Nov 2020 07:00 AM PST  Shoppers pass by a sign promoting the NHS COVID-19 app | Photo by PAUL ELLIS/AFP via Getty Images What happens when an app designed to help people navigate the real world doesn't match up with reality? That's what happened recently with a National Health Service contact tracing app in England and Wales, which failed to notify many users that they had been exposed to the virus that causes COVID-19. Like many contact tracing programs, the NHS app keeps track of when a user is close to other people who also downloaded the app. If someone tests positive, the app can send an alert to all their contacts, particularly the ones that they've been around the most. The app calculates a person's risk based on a few factors, including how long they've been close to the person who tested positive. If the calculation passes a certain threshold, an... |
| Superstore finds a way to laugh about the pandemic Posted: 07 Nov 2020 07:00 AM PST  NBC About midway through Superstore's season 6 premiere, a customer at Cloud 9, the big-box retailer that the NBC sitcom is set in, is absolutely livid at the idea that she has to wear a mask in the store. Furious at being asked to mask up or leave, she accuses the floor manager, Glenn (Mark McKinney), of working for Satan. Glenn, a devout Christian, is absolutely horrified: "That is the one person I would never work for!" he responds. It's funny because it's true: You have to sell your soul to someone to make rent in America, and there are plenty of buyers who aren't the literal devil. That said, the non-devils don't care about you either. As we see in Superstore, the staff of Cloud 9 has been left to fend for themselves in the middle of a... |
