Reminder, 60 Minutes @ 7:30pm ET tonight - YouTube including CEO interview.
Here is a link to the full segment on YouTube for those who missed it. Covers issues/positives well once it gets past the normal dorm room / garage startup story. This is a pretty good set of questions where YouTube/Google show their weakness in prioritizing profit over public.
This is ridiculous by Google, really glad @LesleyRStahl correctly pointed out for her @60Minutes audience that YouTube/Google has no 1st Amendment obligation in making these decisions. Hope their advertising supporters are proud.
Ah, and the link, which I forgot to post above. Apologies. It’s worth the time, runs about 15 minutes. (also psa the Seattle homelessness segment is also very good tonight) cbsnews.com/news/is-youtub…

I realize global lawmakers and regulators haven’t had the political will or jurisprudence to depose Facebook executives and independently audit the integrity of Facebook’s business, fake accounts, likes, metrics but I sure hope they still remember Enron. politico.eu/article/social…
Next go read @MsHannahMurphy. latimes.com/business/techn…
Reminder, Facebook’s self-disclosed and unaudited (no they haven’t passed an industry audit on this the last I checked) “Fake account” population would be the third largest country on our planet.

#DearLiamBot why has Mark Zuckerberg and key executives refused and misled answering a simple question of who knew what and when regarding the largest sale of Facebook’s personal data in its history for illegal usage across boundaries and oceans in the 2016 US election? @AOC
#DearLiamBot how do Facebook and Instagram keep advertisers from publicly pulling their campaigns despite Facebook quietly purging millions of fake accounts and having recommended everything from live mass murders, illegal drug selling and child pornography?
#DearLiamBot if Facebook employees raised red flags in 2016 about Cambridge Analytica and reported internally its sketchy activities in 2015, wouldn’t that be material considering the stock value dropped about $40B when public found out in 2018?

This is related to a question @LesleyRStahl asked CEO of Google YouTube on @60Minutes last night. When the social media platform is actually recommending harmful content, does that change liability? In this case, Instagram reported to be recommending young girls to pedophiles.
There are many examples where microtargeting plus harmful content/context are toxic. Illegal drugs ads microtargeted to addict, political disinfo microtargeted to vulnerable. Put any of these algorithmic recommendations into offline world and it wouldn’t be tolerated.
Back to the first story, imagine a service showing up at a pedophile’s front door with a photo album of young girls. And then imagine advertisers supporting that service. They very much are - in the tens of billions. @DamianCollins

President @realDonaldTrump makes a trip to the wall been put up. Yes that’s the exact same one that the democrats tried so hard to stop. Yes that’s the same one all of the #NeverTrumpers said wasn’t going up. #Winning
The General goes into detail on the wall and how much is going up there now much is been approved.
It is absurd that people actually says this is @realDonaldTrump Vanity project.
