We are excited to share that the #IPIE , which the Lab helped co-found with Programme on Democracy and Technology & scientific researchers worldwide, has published landmark reports on the effectiveness of countermeasures for mitigating digital #misinformation : ipie.info/reports-and-pu…

Insightful report by Hannah Bailey analysing China's information operations and the impact of state-backed media outlets on social media. The report offers insights and recommendations to identify and mitigate the spread of inauthentic content.

It's impressive to see the growing interest in our recent paper on the political economy of online harms:
it is trending as one of the most-read articles in Journal of Communication for the second month
