How Big Tech Frames African Audiences As Intellectually Lazy. African social media audiences are not “dumb” - they are being conditioned. When Africans have to engage with western controlled information ecosystems, the engagement is never a fair one. Not in traditional media, and certainly not in digital media. It... always follows the same colonial playbook of extraction and social engineering over any kind of meaningful conversation or useful solution. The exploitative relationship between Western-controlled tech giants and Africa's social media audiences is often overlooked, but it shapes almost everything we see or value - and even how we understand ourselves. The low-effort, oversexualized content that has become recognised as the preferred taste of African audiences is not in fact an organic phenomenon. To put it bluntly, Western colonial tech monopolies are actively engineering African social media spaces into cesspits of anti-intellectual slop. Africa must rise to resist this intellectual suppression by building information and communication ecosystems by Africans and for Africans.show more

Samuel Mburu: The attempt to block main coverage media will not succeed in this. We have the social media platforms which the youg people are tech savvy, and they have taken it upon themselves to share information from one place to another, they should embrace that Kenya has become digital. #GenZRevolt

What’s on your phone and in your social media feed is NOT the same thing that’s on your friend’s phone or neighbor’s phone. We are all at the mercy of social media algorithms that we don’t control. We are all impacted by media manipulation and agendas. Let’s be kind to each other.

Getty Images: How The West Silently Profits From Africa’s History Since the birth of what we know today as news media, Africa’s story has been primarily told to the world by non-African voices serving non-African interests. The tragic consequence of this has been a wealth of media assets, photos, videos, audio recordings and documents relevant to Africa’s modern history, chronicling significant African events, but legally owned by Western media, and profited from to this day by Western corporations. In this report for the Spearhead, Barra Hart shines a light on Getty Images, one of the world’s largest digital media platforms, how the US-based company and others like it continue to rake in profits, through their digital media licensing “feature”, from African stories, and what Africa can do about it.

For decades, the West has spent billions of dollars in Africa, funding “research” “, innovation”, and “training” journalists, acquiring media houses in all but name, and backing social initiatives that do little or nothing to address the fundamental problems that Africa faces. Indeed, when it comes to supporting industrial, agricultural, pharmaceutical and military research that could actually improve Africa’s economic and political situation, these generous grants are nowhere to be seen from Western nations – only from the nations farther East, who Africans are meant to believe are their enemies. It is a new form of colonial domination dressed up as generosity, and African nations must wake up to this reality.

Exposed: How the CIA Manufactured Iran’s Protest “Massacre” Narrative Sri Lankan journalist Nury Vittachi exposes how the so-called Iran protest “massacre” narrative was not organic, but carefully built through a network of Western-backed groups, media platforms and CIA-linked influence channels. What was presented to the world as fact, was part of a coordinated information operation. The bigger lesson here is that propaganda is often packaged as objective reporting, repeated across mainstream media platforms, and pushed to audiences as credible news. African audiences need to pay attention to that. We have to question the information being fed to us, ask who is behind it, whose interests it serves, and what political agenda may be shaping the story. Because when propaganda is dressed up as credible journalism, it can be used to mislead the public, weaken independent thinking, undermine governments, and reinforce imperial power under the cover of news.

Why you never see Tariq attacking the Republicans and Donald Trump?. 80% of African-Americans vote for the Democrat Democrats. They’re not saying it is perfect, but the Republicans is openly anti-black.. they are turning the clock back and 60 years of black achievement. They are reconstructionist.. and Tariq and his xenophobic movement are Trump supporters. They make other Black people they’re number one target for abuse.. their anti Africans. And they’re anti-black.. they do not speak for 50 million African-Americans. They speak for their xenophobic members on social media..

Peller’s Wedding Guests: Foreign Espionage And African Entertainment When influencers and "foreign guests" collide, as is the case here, we are not watching a wedding but a social engineering operation It is very clear here that the rise of our internet sensations is often engineered. When foreign money starts flowing into our digital spaces, it is time to start asking who is really behind the screen and what they’re buying with those "gifts." It’s time for Africans to stop being spectators to our own subversion.

[WATCH] We must raise an uncomfortable but necessary issue: the rise of unethical behaviour within sections of the media, and the corrosive impact it is having on South Africa’s democracy. The African National Congress is gravely concerned by the growing pattern of what can only be described as captured journalism; a disturbing phenomenon where certain journalists are no longer reporting the news, but are actively involved in shaping political agendas, settling scores, and waging battles on behalf of those they align with or represent. This is not journalism; it is political warfare waged under the banner of the Fourth Estate. We respect media freedom, we fought for it but that freedom must never be confused with impunity. The South African public has a right to expect truth, balance, and accountability from its media; not scripted propaganda manufactured in the corridors of political handlers. #ThePeoplesMovement

They're definitely using us. Many European and African content creators know that South Africans are highly active on social media, so they deliberately use our slang, our humour, and popular words like to attract our attention. They know South Africans will engage, comment, debate, and share the content, which boosts their reach on TikTok, Facebook, and X. Love it or hate it, South Africans are among the biggest drivers of engagement online, and many creators have realised that tapping into our culture is an easy way to grow their platforms.

#WATCH | Delhi Police DCP Sumit Jha says, "We have noticed that some attempts are being made to spread misinformation on social media. So far, more than 400 Pakistani social media handles have been identified, which are taking advantage of this situation and spreading fake content and rumors. They are being blocked. These are the same social media handles which were active during Operation Sindoor as well. Their only aim is to provoke people and especially divert the attention of students. I appeal to you that for the safety of children, do not get provoked by any fake post, edited videos or any post made by anonymous handle. Fact check any post before sharing it. Do not spread rumors and do not let any anti-social elements control your emotions. Remember that it is your right to hold a peaceful protest and Delhi Police respects this right."

👉 Several YouTube channels have been demonetized, Instagram accounts have been banned in India and Instagram reels and content are being deleted as per the government’s will. Facebook accounts are being withheld. This is happening across the board and this is the new trend. 👉 The government first blocks content, deletes content, and now blocks accounts altogether in India. This is being done by none other than Ashwini Vaishnaw, the Ministry of Electronics & IT, and the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting. 👉 They issue orders under Section 69A of the IT Act, which forces social media platforms to delete or withhold accounts as directed. 👉 Bureaucrats sitting in the government will decide what is posted on social media, what is acceptable, and what is not. Anything critical of the Prime Minister will have to go. 👉 This is the biggest attack on the freedom of speech and expression guaranteed to us by our Constitution. : AICC Social Media and Digital Platforms Chairperson Supriya Shrinate ji

WE AFRICANS MAY NEVER PROSPER FOR AS LONG AS WE LIVE IN CONCENTRATION CAMPS DESIGNED TO PROVIDE CHEAP LABOUR AND A CUSTOMER BASE FOR EUROPEANS The more I think about Pan Africanism, the State of Africa, and the prospects of its people, the more I wonder about some of the colonial programmes that African puppet governments simply continued with post-independence. For example, most of our townships were designed to be concentration camps that would force us into a cheap labour reservoir for Europeans. But not only that, they ensure we were dispossed of land, or could not use our own land that we still had. Even more, these concentration camps became a huge customer base for the same Europeans for whom we worked as they build their malls there. In a manner of speaking, they reaped us off twice: first as cheap labour, and secondly, as reliable customers for their products, right from the supermarket to the farm. It therefore may well be said that Africans and African governments need to rethink the settlement patterns of Africans. Instead of more cities, we need more roads and high speed rail so that Africans can live and work in their communities, instead of the few highways that were built for extractive purposes and run straight from the mines directly to the seaports. Let cottage industries and industrial parks be set up all over including the small towns and villages. This will ensure a total solution to the challenges of homelessness in the cities as there is more land for Africans to live in, build and even engage in small scale farming for their basic needs. One of the biggest tragedies played on us is the idea that "land has value, and for it to have value, that land has to be located next to European settlements". Our land ought to have value deep in our African settlements, and that way we won't even be beholden to banks' housing schemes through 20 or 30 year bonds. As more and more Africans build in their rural villages, let us disabuse ourselves of this notion that "that is not an investment". We do not build our homes primarily to sell, we build homes to live in with our families and leave them as a heritage to our children when we leave this world. African governments need to think beyond the Native Commissioners' ideas and accept African culture instead of always seeking to make everything look European. For example, what is the point of building skyscrapers in Africa as if we always have a shortage of housing land (except that such situations are artificially created through these cities?) The Africa of tomorrow must embrace the traditional African settlements and bring services directly to where Africans live, than drive Africans further into concentration camps, which comes with so many ills, everything from crime to drugs. And last, key point: Africans developing in their own communities means that they will provide labour to one another, be customers for one another's businesses, retain critical skills in the communities, advance community development, and ultimately, ensure the establishment of an African Economy owned by Africans! It is perhaps a tragedy of our time that places such as this in Venda, Bulilima-Mangwe, parts of KZN, etc. are leading the way, but it seems that governments aren't paying enough attention. We still need to decolonise African Governments!

I want my followers to understand that you SHOULDN’T insult South Africa as a country based on a few loud voices on social media who express racist or xenophobic views. South Africa has provided numerous opportunities to the world, particularly to Africans. If South Africans were truly xenophobic, Africans would not be living there in such large numbers today. The majority of South Africans are welcoming to all foreigners who are legally in the country and do not commit crimes. These foreigners work with South Africans, live with them, and many are married to South Africans. There is nothing to worry about in South Africa if you are there legally and not committing crimes. South African citizens have the right to express concerns about illegal foreign nationals and those who commit crimes. In Zimbabwe, illegal foreigners are often placed in dilapidated jails, and refugees are housed in camps like Tongogara in Manicaland. Generalisations are dangerous, especially when they taint and insult a silent majority that is not xenophobic. Local communities in South Africa have protected foreign nationals from a small, violent minority on many occasions. The South African government is not xenophobic either. If it were, Zimbabwean women, who make up 70% of pregnant women giving birth at Musina Hospital in Limpopo, would not be allowed there. We should be grateful for the South African hospitality we have received for decades. It is important to recognise that while xenophobia and racism may exist in certain pockets of society, these attitudes do not reflect the majority of South Africans or the country as a whole. Respecting the rights of South African citizens to voice concerns about illegal immigration and crime is important, as these are valid issues. However, it is equally important to avoid generalising these concerns to portray the entire nation as xenophobic or unwelcoming. If South Africans were truly xenophobic, parties like PA and Action SA would be in power today. The four largest political parties in South Africa have never used xenophobia as a campaign platform, which should be telling. Do not judge a nation's character based on a few loud, yet inconsequential voices on social media. They do not represent South Africa accurately. Countries are a product of their history. We shouldn’t draw comparisons with where we come from and insist that our hosts should behave as we do. If South Africans were to follow our practices in Zimbabwe, refugees would be in camps and illegal foreigners would be in jail! In Zimbabwe, refugees are not even allowed to work, if you are found working, you are thrown into jail. South Africa, on the other hand, provides equal legal rights in its courts to foreigners as it does to South Africans. These actions are not those of a xenophobic country. Zimbabwe has refused to issue documents to people of Malawian and Zimbabwean origin, and it has revoked the citizenships of many Zimbabweans whose great-grandparents came from elsewhere. In any society, you are going to have opportunistic politicians and unemployables who think that all their problems are caused by foreigners, we have them everywhere, but they shouldn’t be used to define a whole nation!

[MEDIA INTERVIEW] ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION PART 2: GLOBAL ISSUE Illegal immigration is not a South African problem it is an African and global problem. The question for us as the African continent is how do we deal with that. We must deal with the root cause of this, where people leave their country’s en masse. It is not only African people, we have European and Asian people coming into our country. We must ask ourselves how did they go through the countries of departure without the correct papers. This is a global crisis, that requires government to formulate a response to this. What we can’t allow is for our country to be described as a xenophobic country. We are a people of Ubuntu. #TheYearOfDecisiveAction

SOCIAL ENGINEERING In the context of information security, #socialengineering is the psychological manipulation of people into performing actions or divulging confidential information. It has also been defined as any act that influences a person to take an action that may or may not be in their best interests. => Social engineering will be one of the most prominent challenges of the upcoming decade. Having proficiency in social engineering will be increasingly important for #organizations and #countries, due to the impact on #geopolitics as well. "Social engineering raises the question of whether our decisions will be accurately informed if our primary information is engineered and biased" 👇🏽

I don't buy that the social media age ban is about child safety at all. It is about verifying everyone's ID to get on social media, and it is about removing young people's right to engage in the conversation online. It is the thin end of a very nasty wedge. The start of an Australian digital prison... an online penal colony. I will not be calm. We must push back.

Not so long ago, Felix Hlophe was almost expelled from Gagasi FM after women took to social media, accusing him of abusing his wife. Yet today, a woman has allegedly been stabbed more than 46 times by a man from the DRC, and South African women on social media appear to be largely silent on the matter. Are they only vocal when the alleged perpetrator is South African, or what?” asks an angry man.
