😳 Gizmodo vil udgive Facebook Papers
De lækkede dokumenter bliver dog ikke udgivet ukritisk. Fra Gizmodo selv:
“We believe there’s a strong public need in making as many of the documents public as possible, as quickly as possible. To that end, we’ve partnered with a small group of independent monitors, who are joining us to establish guidelines for an accountable review of the documents prior to publication.
The mission is to minimize any costs to individuals’ privacy or the furtherance of other harms while ensuring the responsible disclosure of the greatest amount of information in the public interest.”
👎 Twitter dropper understøttelse af AMP
Hvis der findes en Accelerated Mobile Pages-udgave (AMP) af en hjemmeside vil Twitters mobil-app sende brugeren til den. Det stopper nu. Fra Search Engine Land:
“Thanks for telling us. We’ve heard anecdotally that publishers have been seeing AMP traffic fall, especially since Google started putting non-AMP pages in its Top Stories section. But it was David Esteve, audience development specialist and product manager at Marfeel, and technical SEO consultant Christian Oliveira who spotted the update in Twitter’s documentation.”
