A baker in Essex says her sales dropped nearly 50% after her Instagram and Facebook accounts were suspended for no apparent reason after posting a photo of a cake. Kiersten George, who runs a bakery business in Wivenhoe, said she had been reduced to tears since the accounts were suddenly frozen. Meta moderation filters can be very strict, according to marketing experts. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cq57vv3w608o #Media #SocialMedia #SocialCommerce #Meta

The X algorithm really is trying to radicalize you—researchers just proved it https://www.fastcompany.com/91507338/x-algorithm-for-you-radicalize-users
They found that the algorithmic feed increased user engagement, promoted conservative-coded political content, and demoted posts from traditional news sources, which appeared in users’ algorithmic feeds 58.1% less often than they did in users’ chronological feeds.

A World Happiness Report found that young people who do not use social media report lower levels of well-being than those who use it for less than an hour a day. However (and unsurprisingly,) adolescents, particularly teenage girls, who spend significant amounts of time on social media experience negative impacts.

Did Starmer really say this? I can't find a good source. You'd think this would be bigger news.
It says he would kick US bases out if tRump withdraws from NATO.

#WorldHappinessReport Says #SocialMedia Makes #Teens Unhappy
The World Happiness Report for 2026 says passively consuming algorithmic social media hurts teens’ #mentalhealth with heavy use contributing to a drop in wellbeing among young people.
The report found that heavy social media use affects girls disproportionately and is associated with digital crimes such as sextortion and #cyberbullying, as well as higher rates of #depression and #anxiety.
