一 |     "Social media is now the main source of information about the world for 16-24-year-olds, and for all ethnic minorities in the UK," explained Ellis Cashmore, honorary professor of sociology at Aston University in the UK.,"Yet platform moderators have practically unrestricted power to edit, and, if they wish, remove content. This is an unheard-of censorial power. I can't think that, in history, proprietors have ever had such colossal power to control the flow and content of information, not just to one population, but to the world.",The Online Safety Bill was first introduced in the British Parliament in March 2022 with the aim of holding social media platforms, search engines and various websites to account for hosting illegal activities or spreading harmful content.,The newly introduced amendment is "designed to guard against the arbitrary removal of articles from journalists at recognized news outlets when shared on social media platforms," according to the UK government's website. The authors of the amendment draw attention to the fact that half of British adults use social media for news, with Facebook*, Twitter and Instagram* being the most popular platforms. When it comes to 16-24 year-olds, the internet is the most-used platform.,Once the bill comes into force, social media giants would be required "to ensure recognized news publishers’ articles remain viewable and accessible on their sites even if they are under review by moderators.",Facebook Doesn't Know What Happens to Users' Data, How It Spreads as Regulators Tighten Their Grip27 April, 19:01 GMT,The introduction of the new amendment can be explained by the fact that the tech giants have proved themselves impossible to control, the professor explained.,"Tech companies operate in a relatively unrestricted way and governments around the world usually rely on the companies' goodwill," he said.,Still, the new amendment is focused on so-called "category one companies", which include "the largest and most popular social media platforms", and is not designed to shield alternative media sources.,The bill's selective approach has been manifested by its earlier amendment obligating social media platforms "to proactively look for and remove disinformation from foreign state actors which harm the UK." It specifically singles out Russian news, with an obvious reference to Sputnik News and RT - both previously banned by the EU and social media giants after the beginning of the Russian special operation to de-militarize and de-Nazify Ukraine.,"Freedom of speech and expression are highly valued principles in western Europe and North America," says Cashmore. "But it is interesting that, after the beginning of the conflict in Ukraine, there were no protests at the decisions of western governments to prohibit broadcasts and news supplies from RT, Sputnik and maybe a few less important news outlets.",EU Bans Work of Sputnik News Sites, Broadcasting of RT TV Channel in the Community From 2 March2 March, 11:53 GMT,The professor notes that wiping Russian news from the media sphere is senseless given that many westerners are interested in learning Russian perspectives. "This does not mean they would be persuaded or even influenced, but they feel entitled to make up their own minds independently. They have been denied that facility," Cashmore stressed.,"Since February, Russia, its people and its values have been condemned, denounced and stigmatized," said the professor. "Vladimir Putin has been personally vilified. It is difficult to see this ending, at least not for 30 years. Russia has been excluded from many world affairs and many believe Russia and the other BRICS countries may coalesce into an international configuration to rival NATO. This would become a new world order.",Meanwhile, the bill's amendments have raised concerns among British campaigners who are warning the government that in its current form the proposed internet safety laws are “on the verge of being unworkable," according to The Independent.,In particular, campaigners have advocated for a number of measures to strengthen freedom of expression and rights safeguards to better protect people from marginalized backgrounds and expand transparency requirements on firms to boost access to data for researchers and academics.,*Facebook and Instagram are banned in Russia over extremist activities.。      8月21日电 国务院新闻办公室8月21日举行“开局起步‘十五五’”系列主题新闻发布会。财政部副部长廖岷介绍,按照7月30日召开的中共中央政治局会议部署,结合前期政策执行情况和调研中各方意见,已对财政金融协同促内需政策作了优化完善,从今年8月1日起开始实施。具体来讲,主要是有三个新的举措:  一是拓宽贴息范围。充分考虑企业的实际需要,在先前固定资产贷款的基础之上,将新发放的流动资金贷款也纳入了中小微企业贷款贴息的政策范围;更好贴近大众消费习惯,将包括购车、装修在内的新发生的各类信用卡分期消费都纳入到政策支持范围,按此,消费者只要是用信用卡分期方式进行消费,都可以享受贴息优惠。  二是增加了经办机构。进一步扩大中小微企业贷款贴息、服务业经营主体贷款贴息经办机构范围,从先前约100家增加到了约400家,包括21家全国性银行和金融监管评级3A及以上的城商行、农村合作金融机构、民营银行、外资银行,广泛覆盖城乡经营主体,把服务窗口进一步开到群众家的门口。  三是进一步提高额度上限。将享受贴息政策的中小微企业贷款规模上限由5000万元提高到7500万元,将享受贴息政策的服务业经营主体的贷款规模上限由1000万元提高到2000万元;将享受政策的个人消费贷款的贴息上限由以前的3000元提高到了5000元,以更好满足经营主体投资和消费需求。  廖岷表示,结合经济发展需要,正在继续研究制订财政金融协同的新政策和新举措,并于今年下半年推出。同时,强化统筹协调,将与央行等金融管理部门一道,推动财政金融联动常态化和长效化。期待这些政策能够进一步增加企业和居民的获得感。
