Facebook lancerer ny satsning på videokald

The Verge:
"Face­book is rolling out a suite of new prod­ucts to expand its capa­bil­i­ties in video chat. The com­pa­ny today announced Mes­sen­ger Rooms, a tool for start­ing vir­tu­al hang­outs with up to 50 peo­ple and allow­ing friends to drop in on you when­ev­er they like. It’s also dou­bling the capac­i­ty of video calls on What­sApp from four peo­ple to eight, adding video calls to Face­book Dat­ing, and adding new live-stream­ing fea­tures to both Face­book and Insta­gram."

But at the very same time, The Markup found, Face­book was allow­ing adver­tis­ers to prof­it from ads tar­get­ing peo­ple that the com­pa­ny believes are inter­est­ed in “pseu­do­science.” Accord­ing to Facebook’s ad por­tal, the pseu­do­science inter­est cat­e­go­ry con­tained more than 78 mil­lion peo­ple."
