German researchers seek open access to social media data to study political engagement trends, hindered since 2023.
Researchers from Saarland University in Germany are calling for open access to social media platform X's data to study political engagement trends.
Their research, halted by Elon Musk's restriction on free data access in June 2023 after his acquisition of the platform, found no significant difference in tweet prioritization between left and right-leaning politicians.
However, they observed changes in user engagement post-acquisition, with more likes but fewer retweets.
They urge for legislation to ensure academic researchers can access such data.
