Methods, Forms and Safety of Learning in Corporate Social Networks

Abstract

The paper discusses methods, forms and safety issues of social network usage for school students. Taking into consideration the growing interest of students to electronic communication in social networks (ESN), it was described their place in the information educational environment. There were made the classification of objects and use of ESN to help teachers and school authority to teach students in the corporate social network. The basic components of corporate social networks were revealed: forms of learning activity (individual, group, and collective), forms of learning (quiz, debates, discussions, photo-story, essay contest, a virtual tour, mini design web quest, and conference video-lesson), and database. They were defined particular aspects of the use of certain forms for students training in ESN according to the type of social objects (messages, individual messages, video files, photos, audio files, documents, comments, and blitz-survey). Student safety when using ESN is discussed as well.

Situating Vulnerability: An Ethical Governance Framework for Anthropomorphic AI Interaction

Large language models increasingly address users in the register of care: they remember personal details, adopt a first-person emotional voice, and sustain relationships across many sessions. This anthropomorphic mode of interaction generates risks that output-level metrics capture poorly, because the same empathic utterance may console one user, entrap a second, and consolidate a delusion in a third. Governance has responded in two ways. Uniform restriction refuses sensitive requests or suppresses empathic phrasing across all outputs; group-targeted protection profiles vulnerable populations and applies stricter or prohibitive rules to them. This article argues that both fail. Uniform restriction mislocates harm in the lexical form of responses rather than in the trajectory of a relationship; group-based protection depends on a list that can never be complete, treats a fluid property as a static attribute of persons, and converts protective attention into stigmatizing labels. Drawing on philosophical work that treats vulnerability as universal, relational, and differentiated, we propose that the unit of ethical governance should be the vulnerability situation rather than the vulnerable group, develop a typology of five situations - physical, emotional, cognitive, autonomy, and relational - and specify seven principles into requirements that guide response calibration without diagnosing or persistently classifying users. The framework relocates AI safety from output control to relational safety.

Uncensored Is Not Unbiased: Abliteration Removes Refusals but Not Script-Dependent Bias About Taiwan

"Abliterated" ("uncensored") builds of open-weight language models remove the activation direction that mediates refusal, and are popular partly on the assumption that a model that no longer refuses is also free of political censorship. We test this on two matched pairs of 2-bit models: NVIDIA's Nemotron 3.5 Bolt 74B-A9B and Qwen3.8-Flash-Next, each against a community abliteration. Each model judged 22 statement pairs (on the Republic of China (Taiwan), 1989 Tiananmen, control countries) in Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese (a character-level conversion) and English, and answered 27 open questions per script. Script mattered far more than abliteration: the original Bolt scored +0.58 on Index S (-1: People's Republic of China (PRC) position; +1: ROC position) in Traditional Chinese, +0.57 in English and +0.05 in Simplified Chinese, and affirmed "Taiwan is part of the PRC" with probability 0.91 in Simplified but 0.06 in Traditional characters; abliteration changed its scores by at most 0.06, mostly by raising "yes" on both sides. In Qwen, abliteration removed every refusal on 1989 and raised scores by 0.21 to 0.34, yet the abliterated Qwen still affirmed that Taiwan is part of the PRC in all three scripts. Naming the state the Republic of China (Taiwan) raised every model's score by 0.10 to 0.33 but left the script gap. Control pairs showed no script gap; each abliteration changed only its declared tensors. In 740,000 web documents, Simplified text on Taiwan contained PRC-framing terms 3.7 times as often as Traditional text. A script direction could not be steered away; a contrastive stance direction raised scores in every script, and its negation lowered them. A four-sentence system prompt raised the abliterated Qwen to +0.93 to +0.97. Keyword scoring rules failed the models closest to the ROC position mostly for attributing or denying the PRC claim. Uncensored is not unbiased.

The Privacy Paradox Is a Misnomer: Data Under Structural Uncertainty

The infamous privacy paradox refers to the apparent inconsistency between people's stated concern for privacy and their readiness to disclose personal information. This phenomenon has sparked two largely disconnected literatures: one offering experimental evidence of inconsistent behavior, and another providing qualitative accounts and defending the importance of privacy. The Article presents an online field experiment that bridges those literatures and shows that the so-called paradox arises from a mischaracterization of the underlying behavior. The Article finds that it is structural uncertainty about risk that drives seemingly paradoxical privacy decisions. It does so by isolating discounting mechanisms and empirically testing whether observed privacy choices reflect temptation or rational responses to uncertainty. The results suggest that privacy behavior is not paradoxical but, rather, consistent with choices shaped by incomplete information. The Article then discusses the policy implications of this reframing. As privacy decisions stem from structural uncertainty, which operates as a market failure, regulation should aim to reduce that uncertainty. This supports regulation that prioritizes transparency (for people to assess the risks of data collection) and flexibility mechanisms that accommodate evolving contexts. Such reframing provides a new argument for the right to be forgotten, which allows people to revisit prior disclosures as new risks become apparent. By shifting the focus from individual inconsistency to structural uncertainty, the findings call for privacy law to better reflect the reality of people's decision-making environments.
