Keegan</a>’s telling, the loss of tools like CrowdTangle and Pushshift—which allow researchers to study user behavior and how information is shared on social media—is like particle physicists one day waking up to find out they can no longer access the Large Hadron Collider.</p><p> </p><div class="align-right image_style-medium_750px_50_display_size_"> <div class="imageMediaStyle medium_750px_50_display_size_"> <img loading="lazy" src="/cmci/sites/default/files/styles/medium_750px_50_display_size_/public/article-image/brian_mug.jpg?itok=-y5hQ0dp" width="750" height="750" alt="Headshot of Brian Keegan"> </div> </div> “I have grad students interested in how online extremism works, the consequences of political polarization, whether content moderation is actually effective at stopping hate speech,” said Keegan, an assistant professor of <a href="/cmci/infoscience" rel="nofollow">information science</a> at the College of Media, Communication and Information at the șù«ÍȚÊÓÆ”. “To be able to understand questions like these requires access to data from these platforms—and restricting it imperils our ability to be impactful in our work.”<p>Earlier this month, Meta announced it was shutting down CrowdTangle, one of the most effective tools for understanding how Facebook and Instagram’s algorithms work and how disinformation is created and spread on the company’s platforms.</p><p>That’s a blow to researchers, watchdogs and journalists who will be less able to track how disinformation, hate speech and other poisons pollute the social media atmosphere—but in the context of business decisions, there are strong financial and reputational benefits to obfuscating its operations. Not only is the platform sitting on mountains of data that can be licensed to companies building models to train generative artificial intelligence, Keegan said, “it’s easy to imagine a world where Meta doesn’t want its name attached to a paper about how neo-Nazis are using Facebook groups to organize themselves.”</p><h3>The economic case for ‘privacy washing’</h3><div class="ucb-box ucb-box-title-hidden ucb-box-alignment-right ucb-box-style-fill ucb-box-theme-white"> <div class="ucb-box-inner"> <div class="ucb-box-title"></div> <div class="ucb-box-content"><p class="lead"><i class="fa-solid fa-quote-right ucb-icon-color-gold fa-3x fa-pull-right">&nbsp;</i> “The loss of these data tools imperils our ability to do that kind of scholarship and is ultimately a detriment to democracy and civic institutions.”<br>Brian C. Keegan, assistant professor, information science</p></div> </div> </div><p>It’s becoming a more common story, as platforms that once made their data public are increasingly erecting paywalls, blocking APIs or cutting deals with A.I. companies. Often, those platforms mask their motivations behind what Keegan calls “privacy washing,” citing concerns about safeguarding user data in justifying the removal of key features for research labs, newsrooms and the public.</p><p>This particular example comes at an inauspicious time, with digital disinformation ratcheting up ahead of Election Day and more Americans than ever getting their news from social media.</p><p>“To address the challenges we’re up against, that are happening in real time, that we see journalists trying to grapple with, requires different models of publicly engaged scholarship, beyond just academic papers that take a year or two to publish,” Keegan said. “The loss of these data tools imperils our ability to do that kind of scholarship and is ultimately a detriment to democracy and civic institutions.”</p><p>It’s not just the media or public at large that are affected. When these tools are taken offline, it hurts the quality of the online communities, as well. Keegan has volunteered as a moderator on Reddit, and said PushShift—which Reddit limited access to beginning last summer—was vital to forming context about user behavior that could determine whether someone was having a bad day, or whether that person was truly a bad actor.</p><h3>Classroom impact</h3><p>That’s a challenge as a moderator, but it’s having a bigger impact on his professional life, both as a researcher and teacher. He can use case studies from the 2016 U.S. presidential election cycle to show how fake news circulated, and the role of actors like Cambridge Analytica, “but that data and those strategies are now eight years old, and those contexts no longer exist—we’re in a different world now,” Keegan said. “Can we prepare our students to be better engineers, managers, artists and citizens with such old case studies?”</p><p>Meta purchased Crowdtangle in 2016, and Keegan acknowledged that the tech platform isn’t required to make its data publicly available. “But researchers have built our careers, infrastructure and programs on assumptions that we’d have access to these tools, so to have that rug pulled from under us has been profoundly disruptive to our ability to provide transparency, engage and ask critical questions,” he said.</p><p>Keegan hopes to learn more through a grant he’s pursuing from the National Science Foundation. If awarded, he hopes to study the consequences of actions like Meta’s in the scientific research community.</p><p>“When that data disappears, how does that impact scholarship?” he asked. “Can we measure how research methods changing, the way we collaborate, the strategies we’ll need to develop to make sure we’re able to ask critical questions?”</p></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div>Without access to social media data, disinformation and hate speech may get easier to spread—and harder to detect.</div> <h2> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--ucb-related-articles-block paragraph--view-mode--default"> <div>Off</div> </div> </h2> <div>Traditional</div> <div>0</div> <div> <div class="imageMediaStyle large_image_style"> <img loading="lazy" src="/cmci/sites/default/files/styles/large_image_style/public/feature-title-image/keegan-meta_lede.jpg?itok=gbqAQ1vt" width="1500" height="844" alt> </div> </div> <div>On</div> <div>White</div> Fri, 23 Aug 2024 17:54:54 +0000 Anonymous 7040 at /cmci /cmci/news/2024/08/22/new-faculty-tech-journalism-advertising <span>Class acts: CMCI’s new faculty bring new ideas on A.I., identity, culture to șù«ÍȚÊÓÆ”</span> <span><span>Anonymous (not verified)</span></span> <span><time datetime="2024-08-22T14:16:32-06:00" title="Thursday, August 22, 2024 - 14:16">Thu, 08/22/2024 - 14:16</time> </span> <div> <div class="imageMediaStyle focal_image_wide"> <img loading="lazy" src="/cmci/sites/default/files/styles/focal_image_wide/public/article-thumbnail/norlin-fac-lede.jpg?h=8abcec71&amp;itok=-u6LZUj6" width="1200" height="800" alt="The Norlin Library framed by leaves from a nearby tree."> </div> </div> <div role="contentinfo" class="container ucb-article-tags" itemprop="keywords"> <span class="visually-hidden">Tags:</span> <div class="ucb-article-tag-icon" aria-hidden="true"> <i class="fa-solid fa-tags"></i> </div> <a href="/cmci/taxonomy/term/248" hreflang="en">aprd</a> <a href="/cmci/taxonomy/term/71" hreflang="en">communication</a> <a href="/cmci/taxonomy/term/867" hreflang="en">dcmp news</a> <a href="/cmci/taxonomy/term/1051" hreflang="en">envd</a> <a href="/cmci/taxonomy/term/105" hreflang="en">faculty</a> <a href="/cmci/taxonomy/term/168" hreflang="en">featured</a> <a href="/cmci/taxonomy/term/53" hreflang="en">information science</a> <a href="/cmci/taxonomy/term/208" hreflang="en">journalism</a> <a href="/cmci/taxonomy/term/51" hreflang="en">news</a> <a href="/cmci/taxonomy/term/140" hreflang="en">research</a> </div> <div class="ucb-article-content ucb-striped-content"> <div class="container"> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--article-content paragraph--view-mode--default 3"> <div class="ucb-article-text" itemprop="articleBody"> <div><p><strong>By Joe Arney</strong><br><strong>Photo by Kimberly Coffin (CritMedia, StratComm'18)</strong></p><p>When asked why they choose the șù«ÍȚÊÓÆ”, students and faculty alike tend to cite its location, along with academic prestige, research successes and access to opportunity.</p> <div class="align-left image_style-original_image_size"> <div class="imageMediaStyle original_image_size"> <img loading="lazy" src="/cmci/sites/default/files/styles/original_image_size/public/article-image/izaguirre-mug.jpg?itok=w2iiu5eT" width="225" height="225" alt="Headshot of Joe Izaguierre"> </div> </div> <p>That was a big draw for Joe Izaguirre III, as well.

Though there are no changes for current students, faculty in the program are enthusiastic about the chance to collaborate with colleagues eager to explore new applications for their work.</p><p>MartĂ­n Paddack, a teaching associate professor who joins CMCI and ENVD following seven years at Howard University, has a wealth of interests around architecture and sustainability, including participatory design—“understanding how we identify where there is need and trying to create connections with community for design.”</p> <div class="align-left image_style-original_image_size"> <div class="imageMediaStyle original_image_size"> <img loading="lazy" src="/cmci/sites/default/files/styles/original_image_size/public/article-image/paddack-mug.jpg?itok=i-RtnUJC" width="225" height="225" alt="Headshot of MartĂ­n Paddack"> </div> </div> <p>“I always try to inculcate into students that it’s not about coming up with an idea and saying, here’s the answer,” said Paddack, who also is founder and principal of the Washington, D.C.-based DesignMAP firm. “It comes down to communication—asking the right questions and really listening so you can identify where the needs are. If you are prescriptive, and don’t listen to your community, that’s when design starts to fail.”</p><p>Paddack brings a diverse set of interests—architecture, sustainability, social responsibility, writing, painting, woodworking—to the classroom, as well as a global perspective: He was born in Puerto Rico and raised in Peru and Uruguay before moving to D.C. as a boy. He also taught in South America and completed a painting residency in Barcelona. He helped set up a fabrication lab at Howard to ensure students developed both practical architecture experience.</p><p>“That’s something I really like about environmental design at CU—the focus on how we can apply sustainable principles across four different areas, and an emphasis on doing hands-on fabrication so that students learn the theory, but also how to apply it,” he said.</p><h3>‘Great experience’ connecting with students</h3> <div class="align-left image_style-original_image_size"> <div class="imageMediaStyle original_image_size"> <img loading="lazy" src="/cmci/sites/default/files/styles/original_image_size/public/article-image/mulupi-mug.jpg?itok=1FOJp8eZ" width="225" height="225" alt="Headshot of Dinfin Mulupi"> </div> </div> <p>Most new faculty who join CMCI say they feel an instant rapport with professors in their departments, which makes the college feel like home well before they start. That was true for Dinfin K. Mulupi, as well, but she felt an equally strong connection to the journalism students she taught as part of the interview process.</p><p>“I was fascinated by their interest in learning the research behind journalism practices,” said Mulupi, a native of Kenya who came to CMCI via the PhD program at the University of Maryland, College Park.</p><p>A discussion she led critiquing news coverage of immigration, Mulupi said, sparked so much insightful discussion that she felt bad moving on to the next topic.</p><p>“It was a great experience, as an instructor, to be able to work with students who were that interested in learning and participating,” she said. “When you’re a professor, you are creating knowledge with your students, and they were so attentive and involved that I know it will be a privilege to teach them.”</p><p>Mulupi’s research looks at sexism and sexual harassment in newsrooms, and came from working on her thesis as the #MeToo movement gained momentum. She was among the first scholars to explore the topic in Kenyan newsrooms; her work has since expanded to more than 20 countries.</p><p>It’s an important topic at a time when the news industry is contracting, as “when you have a newsroom culture with sexism, harassment, racism and bigotry, you lose talented journalists who don’t feel safe and included,” she said. “I am also focusing on solutions, especially exploring how we can build safer, more inclusive newsrooms that produce news content that serves the diverse needs and interests of a wider audience.”</p> <div class="align-left image_style-original_image_size"> <div class="imageMediaStyle original_image_size"> <img loading="lazy" src="/cmci/sites/default/files/styles/original_image_size/public/article-image/iyer-mug.jpg?itok=FKs4rxkn" width="225" height="225" alt="Headshot of Pooja Iyer"> </div> </div> <p>Pooja Iyer, who joined CMCI from the University of Texas Austin, where she completed her doctoral work in the spring.
