Speaking Up: The Science of Voice vs. Self-Censor
A new study in PNAS models the complex interplay between an individual's desire for free speech and their fear of reprisal, especially in the context of increasingly sophisticated censorship tactics. Researchers are using these models to understand how social media moderation, facial recognition, and IP address tracking impact self-censorship and, ultimately, the health of democratic discourse. This work provides insights into the evolving challenges to free speech in the digital age.
