Impressive work by @OSoMe_IU, @LucaLuceri, and colleagues! Datasets such as this are much needed and open up multiple possibilities of research! ๐๐
Great to see this work about information operation finally out! I think the coolest part is the control data added by the team, which makes all sorts of analyses and applications possible. Link: https://t.co/Es5Fqn1BfD

๐ฏ Relatedly, @transparenttech and @GWIDDP has an ongoing survey & audit to understand (1) data access loss and (2) whether the DSA provides sufficient data to researchers. We're still fielding survey responses! https://t.co/eZs61Wa3p4 For more info: https://t.co/7ie3X5gmE3
In a new correspondence in @Nature, I argue that regulations should mandate data access for social media researchers: https://t.co/D2ZL6dBBKV

In our view @X doesnโt comply with the DSA in key transparency areas. It misleads users, fails to provide adequate ad repository and blocks access to data for researchers. Itโs the first time we issue preliminary findings under the Digital Services Act. ๐

Before building a new social bot detector, please read "Demystifying Misconceptions in Social Bots Research." It's a sober reminder of the common methodological issues & common misconceptions plaguing this area. Well done! @s_cresci, @yang3kc et al. https://t.co/FXKI2yG90v
