"Disinformation Governance Board" On "Pause" Due to BacklashThe right wing alternately seized, pounced on Nina Jankowicz's highly partisan, lunatic statements, laments Taylor Lorenz. In naming the 33-year-old Jankowicz to run the newly created board, the administration chose someone with extensive experience in field of disinformation, which has emerged as an urgent and important issue. The author of the books "How to Be a Woman Online" and "How to Lose the Information War," her career also featured stints at multiple nonpartisan think tanks and nonprofits and included work that focused on strengthening democratic institutions. Within the small community of disinformation researchers, her work was well-regarded. LOL. Within the small community of bitter leftwingers paid to campaign for censorship, her "work" was well-regarded. But within hours of news of her appointment, Jankowicz was thrust into the spotlight by the very forces she dedicated her career to combating. The board itself and DHS received criticism for both its somewhat ominous name and scant details of specific mission (Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said it "could have done a better job of communicating what it is and what it isn't"), but Jankowicz was on the receiving end of the harshest attacks, with her role mischaracterized as she became a primary target on the right-wing Internet. She has been subject to an unrelenting barrage of harassment and abuse while unchecked misrepresentations of her work continue to go viral. By "harassment and abuse," Lorenz means that the people who Jankowicz intended to censor in the future looked at her previous statements to evaluate her judgment and even-handedness, and found her to be a crazed ideologue. And it's not fair to look at the past internet statements of someone who is going to be deciding if everyone else's internet statements are legal. That Taylor Lorenz, whose entire career is made up of dredging up people's old internet statements and exposing them to cancel them, should be whining about this is preposterous. In addition, here we have an example where past statements are perfectly legitimate -- Jankowicz is no mere private citizen. She's not the sort of minor tween TikToker Lorenz typically exposes. Jankowicz was appointed to head the government's Ministry of Truth. Her past conduct and her past claims about what was truth and what was "disinformation" are of course completely relevant to judging her fitness to decide on truth vs. "disinformation" in the future. Now, just three weeks after its announcement, the Disinformation Governance Board is being "paused," according to multiple employees at DHS, capping a back-and-forth week of decisions that changed during the course of reporting of this story. On Monday, DHS decided to shut down the board, according to multiple people with knowledge of the situation. By Tuesday morning, Jankowicz had drafted a resignation letter in response to the board's dissolution. Plot twist: SJW with no appreciable skills doesn't want to lose her phoney-baloney job. But Tuesday night, Jankowicz was pulled into an urgent call with DHS officials who gave her the choice to stay on, even as the department's work was put on hold because of the backlash it faced, according to multiple people with knowledge of the call. Working groups within DHS focused on mis-, dis- and mal-information have been suspended. The board could still be shut down pending a review from the Homeland Security Advisory Council; Jankowicz is evaluating her position within the department. This is a lie. The board would decide "best practices" for detecting, punishing, and removing "disinformation," which would be passed on to the tech monopolies, who would of course execute the government's demands. That's how they've been working their censorship game for years now.
