This will be my last post here. The kind of conversations I care about rarely find space on this platform. I’ll be sharing ideas on LinkedIn (linkedin.com/in/steffen.huck) and BlueSky (@steffenhuck.bsky.social) instead — hope to see you there.

Curious to hear if others see this tension in their fields too.

Journals want AI input flagged. But no one is forced to flag help from colleagues or hidden labor in RA factories — restrictions on AI risk entrenching privilege instead of correcting it.

Isn’t it beautiful how the left now hopes that markets will save democracy?

Good to see that the FT is picking it up. Hopefully, German media outlets will follow. If the German media and German society fail to care about this too, it will not end well. ft.com/content/324ef0…

@mutineerrenegad @robinalexander_ Für den Menschenverstand aber gegen die Rechtschreibung?

@robinalexander_ Ihr seit beide sehr naiv. Mehr muss man nicht sagen!

Dagmar Rosenfeld hat recht.

Where is the American civil society? Why is nobody on the streets? Have all dissenters just given up?

Jetzt mal bitte nicht den Wahlkampf mit Fakten stören.

Glad this post was published. I am happy I was eventually able to share my work in Germany, despite the pressure, intimidation, and mafia-style tactics surrounding my visit. The scale and speed of repression of fundamental freedoms (surrounding Palestine), alongside the resurgence of unchecked racism, are truly alarming. And more despicable than censorship, is the widespread self-censorship. verfassungsblog.de/where-is-our-o…

So proud, yet again!
