Le Monde reporting that a French scientist traveling to Houston to attend a conference was denied entry to US after a search of his phone & computer revealed messages critical of Trump's science cuts, "which [says CPB] conveyed hatred of Trump & could be qualified as terrorism".

If you keep using #Twitter, be aware that the content pushed to your feed is extremely distorted towards right-wing/anti-immigrant ideology. This paper provides clear evidence for that: "Political Biases on X before the 2025 German Federal Election" arxiv.org/abs/2503.02888

Diagram showing Twitter activity data. It compares how much people have talked about different political parties in Germany versus how often were pushed to people's "for you" feed, indicating a clear bias towards the anti-immigration AfD and BSW parties.

Well just received this email regarding a paper under review:

Screenshot of an email that reads: "Dear Authors,

As you may know, the new presidential administration in the United States has issued Executive Orders, including one that impacts foreign aid. 

As part of these Executive Orders, USAID-funded projects have received stop work orders. Given the circumstance, we must stop all work on Global Health: Science and Practice. As such, I regret that we will have to postpone processing submitted papers. We know that a lot of work has gone into preparing your paper. Please feel free to take your manuscript elsewhere.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation during this challenging time.  

Sincerely,

Natalie Culbertson
Managing Editor
Global Health: Science and Practice Journal"

Finally deactivated my X account, after long contemplation on whether it's a harmful move for an early career academic like myself. We need more discussion & research about the effects of social media presence for academic opportunities. #eXit #eXodus #academia #research

Over on X, Musk seems to be pushing his own posts directly onto users' notification pages, even if they do not follow him, in a category comically labeled 'Elon Musk' above the breaking news that 'Elon Musk posted' He's making those X devs implement new levels of dear leader shit over there
