They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. - **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use). - **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`. - **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`. - **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`. - **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

(Reuters) -Meta Platforms' Instagram failed to remove abusive comments aimed at female politicians who are potential candidates for the 2024 U.S. elections, according to a report by the non-profit Center for Countering Digital Hate on Wednesday.

The report analyzed over half a million comments on Instagram posts by five Democratic and five Republican women politicians, including Senator Elizabeth Warren, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Vice President and presidential candidate Kamala Harris, Senator Marsha Blackburn and Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene.

CCDH flagged over 20,000 comments as \"toxic,\" with 1,000 of these comments containing sexist and racist abuse, as well as death and rape threats. Instagram left up 93% of the harmful comments even after breaching the platform's standards.

In response to the report, Meta (NASDAQ:META) said it has tools in place for users to control comments on their posts, including filtering out offensive comments, phrases or emojis.

\"We will review the CCDH report and take action on any content that violates our policies,\" said Cindy Southworth, head of women's safety at Meta.

In its analysis of the 2020 U.S. election, the CCDH report found that women of color were more likely to be targets of sexist and racist abuse.

The rise of online abuse against women politicians has drawn criticism from advocacy groups.

It also highlighted how social media algorithms that prioritize emotional content and engagement can inadvertently amplify this abuse, a feature that politicians often leverage to boost their engagement rates.

This underscores the role social media platforms and their algorithms play in the propagation of online abuse, a problem that extends beyond the political sphere and affects millions of users worldwide.

The report urged social media platforms to enforce their safety guidelines more effectively and take decisive action against targeted online abuse.
