networks and even digital media platforms couldn’t create a model beyond ads revenue. views and ads served to them were both treated as commodities.
plus except for views, there was hardly any engagement on the content itself. content was structured to delay the delivery of value and keep you on pages / videos longer to show more ads.
creators as the name also suggests have been really creative both with content and marketing. how much and how fast they’ve evolved even since Covid is their rtw.
tv today network’s fy26 profit is 14 cr, i know a bunch of content creators with a team of 15 - 30 people make way more than that in profits
no wonder main stream acts all scared and pounces
@kushalbhagia everyday at my gym I watch learned people double triple tapping both buttons and after getting in act surprised when the evaluator door opens again.
use throw away accounts for marketing and ads. feed the policy documents to whatever AI you use and make sure you don’t cross those often or game it too far.
meta from the age of Facebook has been notorious. we’ve faced ban on accounts with millions of followers, for no apparent reason.
we’ve come a long way from when all of these were in fact free- water, sewage, electricity.
just that you had to go fetch your own water from the source, no drainage lines but open nallis and no round the clock power melting away the grids.
I have a lived experience of all the above from my native village. don’t @ me
Water is not a commodity. It is a birthright. It belongs to the earth, to other species, and to future generations. No corporation has the right to control it.

amongst all the issues and policy reforms that are in order. we really need to focus on enforcement of contracts.
a contract extends from business, profession, anything we buy, rent, lend to one with civic bodies, govts, what not.
taking any party to court to resolve a matter MUST become a real possibility. the force and fear of enforcement is the only way things can ever start to get done.
after every rain in Blr and hours of traffic frustration, we see rants about X Y and Z. all for better infra, roads and traffic management by city admin. but even on an ordinary day it’s bad driving, illicit parking, dumbfuckery on the streets that cause congestion.
no amount of anything can solve these behavioural issues.
