18 months. Down 60% in value. COO out. FTC suing to break up. Apple kneecapped tracking biz. EU passed gatekeeper regs. Australia law working, forces payments to news orgs. Germans requiring separation of app data. SEC whistleblown. Feeling good about prediction, @profgalloway.

Vizio’s strategy of selling cheap TVs at cost in order to build an ad business seems to be paying off.

They solved the #1 problem with all digital billboard businesses by getting consumers to pay the capex - now link all those TVs up and, voila, you have an ad network.

Another legend passes.

Sean Connery has died at 90. Born in Edinburgh’s slums, he became famous as the first James Bond and went on to a long, award-winning film career. https://t.co/W1qvUieXdP

We have a K-shaped recovery in which there are now 2 Americas: professionals who are largely back to work, with stock portfolios approaching new highs, and everyone else.

Is anyone in the digital media industry really surprised? Anyone? We all saw this coming.

@Avis I had a prepayed reservation and told you had no cars. Then to get my money back I had to call your toll free number. I called, waited on hold, and treated incredibly rudely. Finally told that #avis will keep my money for five days after #avis cancelled my reservation.

[Jonathon Shaevitz @jshaevitz]

#Hertz totally screwed me today. Gave away reservation, said it was my fault. I called, reinstated the reservation, then no car again. Then said they had a car, a Porsche, but would cost me more then double my original reservation. Finally, disconnected me after 20 min on phone

@adtechtroll I think accepting adtech fraud as inevitable is the wrong starting point. It is an architecture problem. Each black box solution connects to the next black box solution. The entire ecosystem needs to be restructured.

It's seems like there is almost no room left in the middle and everything has to be super-sensitized.

This is the best career advice a college student can get.

“If you can’t code, write, or sell... you will be paid by the hour.”

Technology has commoditized access to information. It will soon commoditize access to people. When the door opens you better know how to communicate.
