Takeaways from my #TCDisrupt talk with Snapchat CEO Evan Spiegel:
1. On Instagram Threads’ icon vs Snap Spectacles. “Haha. Nice logo”
Spiegel says it will be 10 years until there are popular AR glasses, and Snap could beat Apple by starting on phones. (Sounds like a decade of risky spending). 2/
Snapchat’s CEO confirmed his legal team made a Project Voldemort dossier of Facebook’s anti-competitive behavior since there was so much to keep track of. 3/

[Thread] I wrote about the 13 reasons this bike has a cult, breaking down Peloton's product genius. 1. Conspicuous Self-Actualization... tcrn.ch/2Ij6SFU
The Transcendence - Peloton sells the closest thing to the smug satisfaction & in-group affiliation of going to Burning Man. The Instagrammable body & the discipline to get there. 2/
The Shoes - Peloton reduces the activation energy of going to the gym to putting on shoes. You can't walk with them on, so the procrastination stops and you exercise. 3/

À proximité du Clos-Lucé mais bien plus agréable à découvrir, voici l’ancien domaine royal de #ChâteauGaillard à #Amboise, édifié personnellement pour Charles VIII à son retour de la première campagne d’Italie. Un petit château privé entièrement restauré, la vie à l’italienne...
Quasi abandonné, il fut redécouvert en 2011 par le chef d’entreprise luxe/textile Marc Lelandais, passionné d’art, qui a complètement métamorphosé le domaine et l’habite avec sa famille. Très souriant, on le croise même ds les salles !

Tout a été restauré ou refait de 2012-2016.
Certes, le billet est un peu cher pour un château de cette taille, mais 5 ans de restauration, recréer de magnifiques jardins et parc au milieu d’une végétation sauvage, excellent accueil... On aide les sauveurs du patrimoine !

I'm no lawyer or poly sci, but logically the govt shouldn't allow companies to harm its citizens nor violate their constitutional rights. If #Facebook and friends had formidable alternative competitors this wouldn't be such a big deal; but they don't, nor will they ever. #BigTech
Their power is so absolute and concentrated, it will be literally impossible for any other company to start up and surpass them. This is akin to a mom-and-pop shop trying to take out Walmart; it's not going to happen and they know it.
Going to Gab or other sites does not solve the problem. It removes and quarantines you from engaging in larger public discourse . Such sites are basically echo-chambers. There you will find victims of political discrimination like yourself and you will be preaching to the choir.

So #Facebook & #Instagram (second time in 3 weeks) deleted my accounts. For sharing information about #Kashmir. No explanations or replies to my questions are given. Of course this is not about Facebook, nor about me, but the much more dangerous path SM is taking.
It is all about Justice & about what is happening to many people living under oppression & facing severe surveillance & suppression on the ground and even online.
It is about principals & rights. Human rights. Enshrined in statues & bragged about. Said to be universal. Said to be
I don't know ONE Kashmiri who hasn't been subjected to some form of censorship. On the ground there are far worse consequences than removed posts. Journalists (and MANY civilians) have been trashed, arrested & targeted when covering human rights violations by India.
