Facebook gemmer chatbots af vejen i ny Messenger på iOS

TechCrunch:
"Chat bots were cen­tral to Face­book Messenger’s strat­e­gy three years ago. Now they’re being hid­den from view in the app along with games and busi­ness­es. Face­book Mes­sen­ger is now remov­ing the Dis­cov­er tab as it focus­es on speed and sim­plic­i­ty instead of broad util­i­ty like China’s WeChat."

Facebook giver gratis annonceplads til WHO

Ven­ture­Beat:
"In a post, Face­book CEO Mark Zucker­berg said the com­pa­ny will give unlim­it­ed free adver­tis­ing to the WHO. The com­pa­ny is also con­sid­er­ing hand­ing out free ad cred­its to oth­er orga­ni­za­tions fight­ing the pan­dem­ic, while search­ing for addi­tion­al ways to sup­port these efforts."

Ny Facebook-algoritme finder falske profiler

ZDNet:
"Chas­ing fake accounts on social net­works is an high-tech game of cat and mouse game, and as soon as one troll is down, anoth­er one pops up. But Face­book has revealed that it has a new trick up its sleeve to bet­ter iden­ti­fy spam­mers – an improved weapon-of-choice that attack­ers won't be able to dodge as eas­i­ly as before, accord­ing to the social media giant."

Facebook med opdateringer på "koordineret uautentisk opførsel"

Social Media Today:
"Face­book has been tak­ing a more proac­tive approach to keep­ing the pub­lic informed of its efforts. And now, Face­book is look­ing to con­sol­i­date these reports into a month­ly sum­ma­ry, pro­vid­ing overviews of each indi­vid­ual mis­in­for­ma­tion cam­paign, and how it oper­at­ed, along with the scope of action Face­book has tak­en against it."

Portræt af Trumps SoMe-rådgiver

New York­er:
"'The Democ­rats will have that prob­lem this time. As they all inter­fight, we are build­ing for our future.” Two years ago, Parscale was named the man­ag­er of Trump’s 2020 cam­paign. “I know every­body wants me to do it from my lap­top,' he joked to the audi­ence. 'Not pos­si­ble. I’ve already done that once.'"

Portræt af YouTube

The Verge:
"But what if YouTube had failed? Would we have missed out on decades of cul­tur­al phe­nom­e­na and inno­v­a­tive ideas? Would we have avoid­ed a wave of dystopi­an pro­pa­gan­da and mis­in­for­ma­tion? Or would the inter­net have sim­ply spi­raled into new — yet strange­ly famil­iar — shapes, with their own joys and dis­as­ters?

Here’s one idea of what it might have looked like, trac­ing the line from why YouTube might have failed to what the world would have looked like with­out it. It’s far from the only option — but if you’re strug­gling to imag­ine a world with­out YouTube, it may not be as hard as you think."

YouTube demonitariserer corona-videoer

The Verge:
"YouTube has demon­e­tized videos about sen­si­tive sub­jects in the past. The company’s adver­tis­ing guide­lines state that sen­si­tive top­ics — usu­al­ly a recent event with a “loss of life, typ­i­cal­ly as a result of a pre-planned mali­cious attack” — are nor­mal­ly not suit­able for adver­tis­ing. These videos are allowed to stay on the plat­form; they just can’t make mon­ey from YouTube’s built-in ad ser­vice."

YouTube anbefaler nu halvt så mange konspirationsteorier

MIT Tech­nol­o­gy Review:
"Researchers trained an algo­rithm to judge the like­li­hood that a video on the site con­tained con­spir­a­cy the­o­ries by look­ing at the descrip­tion, tran­script, and com­ments. They exam­ined eight mil­lion rec­om­men­da­tions over 15 months. "

Twitter tester forsvindende tweets (læs: Stories)

Wired:
"Like Insta­gram or Face­book sto­ries, fleets—yes, fleets—will show up in a carousel at the top of the home time­line, and they’ll dis­ap­pear after 24 hours. Fleets will also have a lim­it of 280 char­ac­ters, like reg­u­lar tweets, with the option to add images, videos, or GIFs, but users won’t be able to retweet, like, or pub­licly reply. Peo­ple can reply to fleets through direct mes­sages, if DMs are open. Depend­ing on how the test goes in Brazil, Twit­ter says it may bring the fea­ture to oth­er coun­tries."

Er Twitters markeringer en god idé?

Nie­man Lab:
"As part of its effort to deal with the spread of mis­in­for­ma­tion on its plat­form, Twit­ter is exper­i­ment­ing with adding col­ored labels that would appear direct­ly beneath any inac­cu­rate state­ments post­ed by politi­cians and oth­er pub­lic fig­ures, accord­ing to a leaked demo of new fea­tures sent recent­ly to NBC."

Twitter-investor presser Dorsey som CEO

Recode:
"Jack Dorsey is the CEO of Twit­ter. He is also the CEO of Square.

That shouldn’t con­tin­ue any longer, says an invest­ment group, which wants Dorsey to stop run­ning Twit­ter — or, at the very least, stop run­ning both com­pa­nies at the same time. And unlike oth­er peo­ple who com­plain about Twit­ter, these guys might actu­al­ly be able to do some­thing about it."
