ASIO Warns of Rising Terrorism Linked to Social Media

The Indian government is concerned about Russian state-owned media targeting Indian Opposition leaders on social media, including Rahul Gandhi and Asaduddin Owaisi, and plans to address it with Russian authorities. In the U.S., Kamala Harris has revitalized the Democratic campaign after Joe Biden dropped out, now leading in polls against Donald Trump, who has been criticized for several public blunders. Mark Levin criticizes the American mainstream media for not representing the American people and covering up significant historical events, suggesting they support corporate and political interests instead. In Australia, ASIO's warning about the increased risk of terrorism has highlighted the role of social media in spreading hate and misinformation, though mainstream media has been slow to acknowledge its own part in sensationalist reporting. Additionally, platforms like Facebook and TikTok have been scrutinized for removing posts related to renewable energy and nuclear power, raising concerns about their influence over public debate.
