BIG-5 Research: 🌿 NATURE’S VALUES ON YOUR FEED

We’re sharing this to raise awareness and invite dialogue.

🔍 Who decides what counts as systemic risk? What enforcement exists when platforms reject the DSA’s goals?

#OpenScience #DigitalServicesAct #PlatformTransparency #EnvironmentalValues #BIG5project

This isn’t just a bureaucratic delay, it actively blocks public-interest science.

✅ Meta, TikTok, and YouTube have already granted access.

❌ X’s refusal undermines cross-platform accountability and the DSA’s promise.

We requested data from X (formerly Twitter) under Article 40(12) of the EU Digital Services Act (DSA), a framework meant to enable research on systemic risks.

❌ Our request was denied.

❓What happens when a platform refuses to let science do its job?

Our EU-funded project BIG-5, hosted at the Barcelona Supercomputing Center and the UAB, investigates how social media platforms shape environmental values.

🎮🌿 Exploring how videogames shape our relationship with nature.
Can digital experiences foster real-world care for the environment—or do they distance us from it?

🧠 We’re reflecting on virtual nature and what it means to connect with it. What do you think?
