The Capitalist Case for Overhauling Twitter

We know it’s terrible for society. But it’s also a terribly run company. Illustration: Tyler Comrie Illustration: Tyler Comrie The political philosopher Hannah Arendt, analyzing the fall of democratic Germany to the Nazis, observed that totalitarianism comes to power through a “temporary alliance between the elite and the mob.” Seventy years ahead of her time, she couldn’t have articulated a more apt description of Twitter, Inc. The company has become a primary platform for just such an alliance: totalitarianism, but with stock options. The stock isn’t even worth that much, relatively speaking. On the day of Twitter’s initial public offering, in 2013, shares closed at $44.90. On January 28, they closed at $51.57. That’s an increase of about 1.9 percent per year — barely more than the rate of inflation. Facebook has nearly sextupled over that period. Even the New York Times Company, once thought doomed by the rise of social media, has almost quadrupled. As a business proposition, Twitter’s decade-long experiment in monetizing rage and disinformation has failed. A little over a year ago, I joined a chorus admonishing the company. “Algorithms that promote conspiracies and junk science, and inconsistent application of your terms of service, have resulted in…

Facebook Bolsters Brand Safety Tools; Apple's Privacy Day Leaves Ad Tech In The Lurch

by AdExchanger // Monday, February 1st, 2021 – 12:03 am Here’s today’s AdExchanger.com news round-up… Want it by email? Sign up here. Brand Safe? With brands and agencies calling on social media platforms to ensure ads aren’t adjacent to harmful content, Facebook announced that it’s building a tool for advertisers to keep their ad placements away from certain topics in its News Feed. Per CNBC, the company said it will begin testing “topic exclusion” controls with a small group of advertisers. For example, a children’s toy company would be able to avoid content related to “crime and tragedy,” if it wished. Other topics will include “news & politics” and “social issues.” Facebook, YouTube and Twitter have all been working with marketers and agencies via the Global Alliance for Responsible Media (GARM) to develop consumer and brand safety standards, including outlining definitions of harmful content, standards for reporting, independent oversight and agreeing to make tools that better manage ad adjacency. The brand safety tools for Facebook’s News Feed are also being used with its other ad solutions, such as in-stream video or on its Audience Network, which allows mobile software developers to provide in-app advertisements targeted to users based on Facebook’s data.…

Make Instagram casual again

Instagram is a popular social media app originally made to share pictures and videos with friends and family. According to apptopia, it was the fourth most downloaded app in 2020. Although the app first started as a fun way to share pictures with your friends and family, over the past few years it has morphed into something much different.Instagram has now become a social media platform full of “influencers,” Facetune and filters.  No longer is it a fun place to share memories. Instead, it’s become a cesspool of comparison and competition to see who can make their life look as perfect as possible.I personally noticed this change in posting. I remember back around 2013 when I first downloaded Instagram, it was really fun. I posted whatever pictures I wanted without caring how I looked or if others would find it cool or not. And this is pretty much what everyone on the app did. It was really for yourself, friends and family to see.But this gradually changed. People began only posting what would get a lot of likes, which was essentially posed pictures where everything was FaceTuned and filtered, whether or not they were actually enjoying themselves or the place…

Instagram-hyped fintech Lanistar sees layoffs, late wages, and launch delays

Late last year, a little-known company called Lanistar burst onto the sceneA mass Instagram campaign in December saw social-media flooded with ads for a new spending card, claiming to be the “world’s most secure”.Days later, Lanistar was issued a warning by the UK regulator, the FCA, which said: “This firm is not authorised by us and is targeting people in the UK… Some firms act without our authorisation and some knowingly run investment scams”. The caution was quickly taken down as Lanistar scrambled to explain they were simply building a pre-launch waiting list rather than offering financial services. But the backlash prompted early payment partners to quietly pull back and spooked the advertising authorities into reviewing Lanistar’s marketing campaign. Now, Lanistar is battling internal problems, Sifted has learned.The company — funded by family members — is facing launch setbacks, widespread layoffs, and staff complaining of missed wages.Delays and late wages Seeking to build on the momentum of its social-media blitz, Lanistar originally circled January as its launch date. But the launch has now been pushed back to at least April, the company confirmed to Sifted.This prompted Lanistar to let go at least 40 staff members across December and January, according to…
