Nick Confessore / @nickconfessore: Can't decide whether hiring @BuzzFeedBen is a sign of our continuing Borg assimilation of amazing BuzzFeed talent or the final act of our Borg assimilation of Politico 1.0.
Josh Gerstein / @joshgerstein: Hats off to @BuzzFeedBen, who has overseen an impressive string of work from a keen set of reporters. @BuzzFeedNews has also proved the naysayers wrong about cultivating quality journalism alongside more entertaining content.

Adrian Carrasquillo / @carrasquillo: .@BuzzFeedBen awakened a brand of reporter in me that will always be part of who I am and I'm grateful for how he challenged me. Now I'm just happy he's following his heart. You better get a scoop soon after starting or people will wonder if you lost your fastball.. https://twitter.com/...
Steven Perlberg / @perlberg: Like many reporters on here, I owe @BuzzFeedBen a lot. He taught me many things, like how you can write whatever you want about someone in a profile if you call them “fashionable” at some point. NYT media columnist is the perfect job for him until Dean Baquet retires https://twitter.com/...
Brian Stelter / @brianstelter: >> @sulliview: “Smith and I have been friendly for several years, & I want to welcome him as a fellow media columnist. We need sharp-eyed critics, daring truth-tellers & clear heads in this increasingly crazy sphere. I'm confident he has all that and more” https://www.washingtonpost.com/ ...
Jim Waterson / @jimwaterson: Ben Smith was a totally fantastic editor. Always without fail had the backs of his reporters, took a punt on people, and saw where media was going for good and bad.

Ellen Cushing / @elcush: A generation of reporters owe their careers, their sensibilities, and their fearlessness to Ben, and I am wildly, impossibly lucky to be one of them. I can't wait to read him every week. https://twitter.com/...
Kristin Chirico / @lolacoaster: I remember when BuzzFeed was small enough where Ben would write me little emails when things I wrote went viral and would take me to coffee to try and figure out my deal even though we make diametrically different internet things and that's the kinda guy Ben is. https://twitter.com/...
Alexis Levinson / @alexis_levinson: Working for @BuzzFeedBen meant getting really frustrated by one of his harebrained ideas and then eventually realizing that he was totally dead on. I loved working for him, and can't wait to read the new column. https://twitter.com/...

Michael Grothaus / Fast Company: Here's how to see where Facebook follows you around the web—and how to make it stop
@thedavidmurphy: This is critical: “(To get the third-party to delete whatever data it's collected on you, you'll still need to follow its own procedures to delete your account or clear your data there.)” https://techcrunch.com/...
Mike Madden / @mikemadden: I read this story, followed @geoffreyfowler's instructions, and discovered that my continuous glucose monitoring software (among other apps) was notifying Facebook every time I opened it: https://www.washingtonpost.com/ ...
Ann Marlowe / @annmarlowe: This is really making me feel like getting off FB entirely, not that I post mucj besides cat and tomato photos..Facebook will now show you exactly how it stalks you — even when you're not using Facebook https://www.washingtonpost.com/ ...
Philip Moscovitch / @philmoscovitch: I don't even have the Facebook app on my phone. Am I thrilled that @freshbooks is sharing info with Facebook every time I open the bookkeeping app? No, I am not. https://twitter.com/...
Mohammad Farooq / @mohammadfarooq_: The Off-Facebook Activity tool will offer a clear summary of which apps and sites have collected data, how Facebook received the information, how many interactions (logging in, searching, purchases, etc.) it has received, and more. https://techcrunch.com/...
Shoshana Wodinsky / Gizmodo: Facebook's ‘Clear History’ Tool Doesn't Clear Shit
Rob Sherman / @rmsherman: We're sending reminders to nearly 2 billion people to review their privacy settings on @facebook. Also, now everyone can manage their info off FB using our new OFA tool. More here: https://about.fb.com/... #DataPrivacyDay
Neil Greenberg / @ngreenberg: Wait is Facebook essentially Santa Claus from the darkest timeline? https://twitter.com/...
David Carroll / @profcarroll: Facebook: We don't assemble “shadow profiles” and users can download their data. Also Facebook: Here's a metric ton of tracking data that hasn't been previously disclosed until this year's #DataPrivacyDay #DataProtectionDay https://www.washingtonpost.com/ ...
Josh Elman / @joshelman: Happy Data Privacy Day! The holiday they knew you always wanted since they have access to all your data https://about.fb.com/...
Aral Balkan / @aral: Transparency is only Step 1. If we don't like what we see, what can we do about it? If the answer is nothing (e.g., because the regulators want to work there in 3 yrs), transparency becomes a synonym for learned helplessness; a snuff film of our lives that we're forced to watch. https://twitter.com/...

Maya Rodale / @mayarodale: HUZZZAH! Congrats to @arctictony and his awesome team on their big launch today! I've been using scroll for months (cos I know a guy 😉 ) and it's an amazing, beautiful way to experience the web. Check it out. https://twitter.com/...
Jacob Kastrenakes / The Verge: Scroll makes hundreds of websites ad-free for $5 per month

Martin Sfp Bryant / @martinsfp: I've been using Scroll for the past few months and I really like it. If you hate adtech and like supporting journalism, give it a go. https://twitter.com/...
Frances Cook / @francescook: News startup Scroll wants to let you read news without ads, and without multiple subscriptions - an interesting idea, if they can make it work https://www.niemanlab.org/...
Jen Peters / @editrixjen: My favorite part of the Scroll release is this line: “I'm too fucking old to deal with Nazis. I don't want to give them money.” https://techcrunch.com/...
@pinboard: This is extortion as a business model. Pay up and maybe we won't serve you third-party malware on our news site, but of course we'll still track you. https://twitter.com/...

Alex Fitzpatrick / @alexjamesfitz: Really interested to see where this goes. It's promising, but whether anyone can overcome the original sin of making Internet content free remains to be seen. https://twitter.com/...
Tony Haile / @arctictony: We're building a better internet, one site at a time. Join us at https://t.co/...! https://twitter.com/...
Mark Little / @marklittlenews: Very best wishes to @arctictony and his team. Starting the internet from scratch. https://twitter.com/...
Mike Murphy / @mcwm: this is an interesting idea — effectively trying to take advertising ARPU, make customers pay it directly to one company, and then revenue is split between partners ? seems like a lot of work, but could be cool if people buy into it https://twitter.com/...
João Carrasqueira / Neowin: Scroll is a new service that gives you ad-free internet for $5 per month
Nathan Lawrence / @nathanblawrence: I've been on Scroll for a few months now. It's great. We've obviously walked the subscription revenue split path before, and if the economics scale is something I just don't know if our industry can see yet, but I'm glad someone's giving it another try. https://twitter.com/...

Ben Hubbard / New York Times: Someone Tried to Hack My Phone. Technology Researchers Accused Saudi Arabia.
Ben Hubbard / @nytben: I got a weird SMS. I didn't click. Researchers concluded it was a hacking attempt with Israeli software by hackers linked to Saudi Arabia. Saudi officials: no comment. The Israeli company: not all hack attempts use our products. Be careful out there, kids. https://www.nytimes.com/...
Profdeibert / @rondeibert: @citizenlab @nytimes @NYTBen .@NYTBen is the first American journalist we have verified to be targeted with NSO's spyware. I suspect he's not the only one, or the last.
David Kaye / @davidakaye: a few very quick highlights from the must-read @citizenlab report on targeting of @NYTBen by “Saudi-linked Pegasus” spyware https://citizenlab.ca/...
Fortune: New York Times reporter writing a bin Salman book was targeted with NSO Group spyware, report says
Kevin Collier / @kevincollier: @citizenlab @NYTBen @RonDeibert A clarification I haven't seen elsewhere, since today's report is the first reported instance of NSO being used against an American, which is against NSO's TOS. The phone where Hubbard received the targeted message wasn't registered with a US #, source says.
Marietje Schaake / @marietjeschaake: ‘The targeting of yet another journalist makes clear the current regulatory regime for the spyware industry is not working. Absent strong regulation & control, the industry will continue to bolster authoritarianism & powerful elites invisibly thwart the work of journalists’ ↘️ https://twitter.com/...
Jennifer Cohn / @jennycohn1: “The NSO Group has also run operations under different names like OSY Technologies, which paid former U.S. national security adviser Michal Flynn over $40,000 as an advisory board member for nearly a year, until last January [2016].” https://www.haaretz.com/... https://twitter.com/...
David Gura / @davidgura: “Technology researchers who inspected the message I received concluded that I was targeted with powerful software sold by NSO Group, an Israeli company, and deployed by hackers working for Saudi Arabia.” https://www.nytimes.com/...
Stephanie Kirchgaessner / The Guardian: Reporter who wrote book on Saudi crown prince was allegedly targeted by hackers
Agnes Callamard / @agnescallamard: I could@not agree more: @davidakaye and I issued our statement last week regarding the hacking of #Bezos phone to warn people of strategic interest to #SaudiArabia that their phone too may have been compromised. https://twitter.com/...
Jcavelier / Reporters Without Borders: Ukraine: RSF warns against ineffective and counterproductive draft bill on disinformation

Aaron Holmes / Business Insider: A New York Times reporter who covers Saudi Arabia was targeted by the same spyware used …
Kenneth Roth / @kenroth: Another case in which Saudi Arabia targets a journalist, this time from the New York Times using the Israeli firm NSO Group's Pegasus hacking software. https://citizenlab.ca/...
Kevin Collier / @kevincollier: @citizenlab @NYTBen CitizenLab director @RonDeibert to me: “We present detailed, peer-reviewed evidence. For their part, they provide dubious claims and never directly address our evidence.” Of note, CL is a U of Toronto lab. Today's report, if you haven't read yet, is here: https://citizenlab.ca/...
@nytimes: “The attempt on my phone came after I had covered Saudi Arabia for 5 years, most recently with a focus on Prince Mohammed,” writes our Beirut bureau chief @NYTBen. “At first glance the link appeared to be a Saudi news story about my coverage.” https://www.nytimes.com/...
David Kaye / @davidakaye: & finally, of course i completely agree with these conclusions. the time for global regulation of the spyware industry is now https://twitter.com/...
Clint Watts / @selectedwisdom: We had the hacking and killing of a @washingtonpost journalist and now we have the hacking of a US @nytimes reporter. What will be 🇺🇸 response? (Guessing we know the answer) https://twitter.com/...
David Kaye / @davidakaye: this alleged masquerading as the Post is extremely dangerous & presents a warning for all media outlets https://twitter.com/...
David Kaye / @davidakaye: this is chilling & underscores the cxn between targeted digital surveillance & physical safety of #journalists https://twitter.com/...
Raphael Satter / @razhael: Deeply concerning. @NYTBen was targeted using NSO spyware, @citizenlab says. Kudos to Ben for knowing who to call — and to the Times for agreeing to make this case public. Not all organizations have the courage to talk about these threats publicly. https://citizenlab.ca/...
Avi Asher-Schapiro / @aaschapiro: Did Saudi use spyware supplied by the Israeli surveilence firm NSO Group to try & hack into the NYTimes Beirut bureau chief's phone? It looks like the first documented NSO-hack of an American journalist. Read @NYTBen's account of what went down: https://www.nytimes.com/...
Kevin Collier / @kevincollier: NSO Group has responding to this morning's report from @citizenlab, which found that NSO software was used to target @NYTBen's phone with malware. In a statement, NSO denies it's them and goes ad hominem against both parties. https://twitter.com/...
Kim Zetter / @kimzetter: NYTimes journalist targeted w/ mobile spyware Pegasus from NSO Group; evidence also suggests an NSO Group operator may have been infecting targets while impersonating the Washington Post in the weeks leading up to and after Khashoggi's killing in 2018 https://citizenlab.ca/...
Dan Gillmor / @dangillmor: New @citizenlab report is also a reminder that journalism education is doing a terrible job, overall, when it comes to helping students understand digital security. It's essential that we get better at this. https://citizenlab.ca/... https://twitter.com/...
@pressfreedom: The revelation by @NYTBen that Saudi Arabia targeted him with hacking and surveillance, coming days after allegations that @JeffBezos was also hacked, is a reminder of the need for greater oversight & restrictions on the sale of sophisticated spying tools to authoritarian regimes https://twitter.com/... https://twitter.com/...
Stefan Simanowitz / @stefsimanowitz: NSO's Pegasus spyware tool is cited as the most likely culprit in the Bezos hacking. #SaudiArabia is believed to have used NSO software to spy on Khashoggi & other critics. Govts in 45 other countries also use Pegasus. @amnesty are trying to stop this. https://www.google.co.uk/... https://twitter.com/... https://twitter.com/...
