This is also probably going to be published on the IFTAS blog, most likely tomorrow. But the election’s coming up fast, so I wanted to make it available tonight! Once it’s published there, I’ll repost that here as the canonical version.

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, I can see arguments both ways. When I did the first version of this back in 2020 I got feedback from a couple of experts who emphasized the importance of getting GOOD information out to balance out the disinfo (which even with good reporting still usually doesn’t get taken down immediately) so encouraged this order … at the time we were focused on FB and Twitter but I think it’s probably still true here, since almsot all instances have part-time moderators so can’t turn things around instantly. Hard to know though …
And sorry I didn’t respond earlier, I thought I had but never hit reply.
